Q: What is piling and how can Bailey Piling assist with my construction needs?Piling is a crucial foundation technique used in construction to support heavy structures, such as a home extension or garden building, ensuring stability and strength. It involves driving or drilling piles—long, column-like elements—deep into the ground to reach a solid soil layer or bedrock. This process is essential in situations where the surface soil is too weak to support the weight of a building or structure. Bailey Piling specialises in providing high-quality piling services tailored to meet the specific needs of your home construction project. Our 40 years expertise in the piling industry means we've seen it all and can quickly determine the most effective piling solution for every residential project, ensuring your foundations are rock-solid and reliable.

Q: What is under-pinning, and how does Bailey Piling handle this process?Under-pinning is a construction technique used to strengthen and stabilise the foundations of an existing building. It is often necessary when the original foundation is not strong or stable enough to support the building, when the usage of the building has changed, or when the soil conditions supporting the foundation have altered over time. Bailey Piling uses a variety of under-pinning methods, including traditional mass concrete under-pinning, beam and base under-pinning, and mini-piled under-pinning, depending on the specific needs of the project. Our team conducts a thorough assessment to determine the most suitable technique, ensuring that all work is performed safely and to the highest standards. By employing advanced engineering solutions and modern equipment, Bailey Piling guarantees the structural integrity and longevity of your building.
