Commercial Builds
Retail parks, office buildings, industrial units or leisure facilities, commercial construction is picking up and these projects need solid foundations. We’ve worked with major brands like Volvo, Burger King and Myprotein. That experience means we understand the requirements of commercial builds and the timescales involved.
Our commercial piling services cover everything from small scale retail units to large industrial facilities. All fully insured, all carried out by NVQ qualified operatives and all backed by our 10 year guarantee.
Domestic Extensions
People aren’t just buying new builds. They’re extending what they’ve already got. Single storey extensions, double storey additions, basement conversions… all need foundations and many need mini piling due to ground conditions or the load bearing requirements.
We completed single storey extensions in Frodsham, Wigan, Prestwich and lots of other locations this year. These domestic projects are a big part of what we do and 2026 looks set to be another busy year for homeowners investing in their properties.
Underpinning and Remedial Work
Not everything’s about new builds. Older properties develop issues. Ground movement, subsidence, structural problems… our underpinning services provide solutions for buildings that need additional support or stabilisation.
This type of work needs experience and precision. You’re working with existing structures, often occupied buildings, and the consequences of getting it wrong are serious. We’ve been doing this for over a decade and our reputation speaks for itself.
Why Contractors Keep Coming Back
We’re a family run business and we treat every project like it matters, because it does. Your reputation is on the line as a contractor or developer. If the foundations aren’t right, everything else suffers.
That’s why we focus on doing the job correctly first time. Our team is fully trained, NVQ qualified, and we’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, Safe Contractor and SMAS. We’re insured to high levels. We provide 10 year guarantees on our work. We turn up when we say we will and we get the job done to the standard you expect.
The fact that contractors use us repeatedly tells us we’re getting it right. We’ve built relationships with builders, developers and construction firms across the UK, who know they can rely on us for their piling requirements.
