Remedial Piled Raft Foundations Services in the UK

Whether you're working on a commercial or residential development, we ensure your project has the support it needs for a stable and durable foundation.

What is a Piled Raft Foundation?

A piled raft foundation combines both a raft slab and piles, offering support in areas where soil conditions are weak or unstable. This system allows for the distribution of loads from a structure across a large surface area while providing the extra support of piles to ensure stability. Piled raft foundations are ideal for a wide range of construction projects, offering both strength and cost-efficiency.

Benefits of Piled Raft Foundations for Your Project

Piled raft foundations offer numerous advantages over traditional foundation systems. Here are the key benefits:

  • Cost-Effective Solution: Compared to other deep foundation systems, piled raft foundations can save both time and money.
  • Improved Stability: The use of piles helps distribute loads effectively, ensuring that your building remains stable, even on weak or variable soils.
  • Reduced Settlement Risks: The raft helps minimise settlement issues, preventing costly repairs and ensuring long-term durability.
  • Versatility: Suitable for various soil types and construction projects, including high-rise buildings, industrial sites, and residential developments.
