A Speedy Replacement for Concrete Foundations

Building Faster and Greener with Ring Beam & Helical Piles

Faster Foundations for Extensions

Construction Ring Beam + Helical Piles are more accurate compared to concrete and shuttering solutions.

This makes them perfect for Modular Systems where the panels and design are 2-3mm tolerance. 

Concrete pads and foundations often need on site adjustment to fit modular systems accurately.  Our foundation system is accurate to 10mm horizontal and 10mm vertical making it the perfect modern foundation system. 

Why you should use Helical Piles + Construction Ring Beam

Modern Construction

Our construction ready Ring Beams allow for quicker installation, reducing overall project timelines and getting you up and running faster.

You can replace slower and more costly trench foundations with helical piles and a construction grade Steel Ring Beam.

An 8 pile installation can support over 100 Tonnes of load.

Faster Extensions and Outbuildings

Helical Screw Piles with a suitable Ring Beam can support all home extensions.

Groundwork is minimal, No Spoil Removal, Trees and Roots not damaged, Party Walls not excavated beneath. 

Also no concrete is required which reduces costs and environmental impact.

Cost-effective Solution

Our Ring Beams offer a cost-effective alternative to traditional concrete foundations. 

We are often cheaper than traditional trench and concrete foundations. 

A simple extension foundation platform can be installed for £8k to £10k

All of our installations are designed and covered by a Structural Engineer Professional Indemnity Insurance agreement.  

Our Foundation Design Service

  • Design & Installation: We handle the whole process—design, install the beam, piles, and if needed, we can lay a beam and block floor too. You’ll be ready to build straight away.
  • Works in Any Weather: Rain or frost won’t stop us, so your project keeps moving.
  • Accurate Foundations: We guarantee the most precise level foundation you’ve ever built on.
  • Insurance Covered: We’ve got up to £5M of PI insurance, so you can rest easy.

Step 1: Design Proposal

Show us your project and we will quickly assess whether Helical Piles + Ring Beam are suitable. 

Our Structural Engineer will calculate loads, and then we will enter the loads and soil conditions into our software platform to specify the pile design, layout and beam properties. 

We will create a Design Proposal for your review.

Step 2: Quotation and Project Timeline

Once the Design proposal is agreed, we will produce a Cost Quotation and Agreed Timeline for Installation and Project Handover.  We can usually provide a foundation in just 2 days for the average extension or similar structure. 

The foundation system is signed over by a Structural Engineer so that Building Control have full visibility of the process.

Step 3: Installation in 2 Days

We can Install the Helical Piles on Day 1 and the Ring Beam on Day 2. 

We cut the pile heights to an agreed level, guided by a horizontal laser datum. This makes the system great for any uneven sites. 

We then add pile plates to support and accommodate the steel ring beam, and secure.  The Ring Beam is then fitted and ready to handover.

All steel elements are fully galvanised, and the Installation Report is created and uploaded for the Structural Engineer for handover, ready to build on. 

Here's one we did recently. 

Block & Beam

Step 4: Installation in 3 Days:  Block & Beam or Slab

Once the Piles and Ring Beam are installed we can follow behind and install a Block and Beam or Slab floor to speed up your project.
