Screw Pile Foundations For Oxford And Oxfordshire

Oxford's historic streets, river meadows and growing towns all need foundations that go in carefully. Screw piles do just that.

Much of Oxford sits on river terrace gravels over Oxford Clay, with the flood plains of the Thames and the Cherwell running through the city. That combination of high groundwater and clay is a natural fit for screw piles, which need no excavation and carry loads down to firmer ground.

With no vibration, piles can go in beside older and listed buildings, and our compact equipment handles the narrow plots and walled gardens found across the city.

We also cover:

  • Headington
  • Summertown
  • Cowley
  • Botley
  • Kidlington
  • Abingdon
  • Didcot
  • Witney
  • Bicester
  • Wallingford
  • Thame

Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?

Yes, including Headington, Summertown, Botley, Kidlington, Abingdon, Didcot, Witney, Bicester, Wallingford and Thame.

Can screw piles be used beside a listed building?

Because installation produces no vibration and no excavation, screw piles are well suited to work close to older and listed buildings. We are happy to work with your architect on whatever consents your project needs.

What about the high groundwater near the rivers?

A high water table is rarely a problem for screw piles. There are no trenches to pump out, and the piles can be installed in wet ground and in any weather.
