Access to the rear of the property was only available through the existing house. Small hand carried Grundomat piling equipment was brought through the property into the rear garden allowing the foundations and extension to be constructed.
Bottom driven mini piles were installed through pre augered holes to ensure a sufficient depth of pile was achieved on site through potentially obstructed ground.
The existing signal box had started to settle as a consequence of its age and that it was sitting on 15 metres of very soft ground. Due to the very restricted access around the structure, limited headroom restriction and that the works were close to ‘live’ tracks our small mini piling rig was utilised to install bottom driven mini piles.
‘May I just let you know that it makes a refreshing change to be able to write a letter of praise for your efforts here in Leeds. Once again, I have been impressed by your company and in the way you have set-up and got the job done in very good time. I have been impressed with your health and safety and have been equally impressed with your men on site – they have been a credit to your company. So many thanks, and look forward to working with you again’
A bungalow started to suffer with clay heave related subsidence as the surrounding tress grew larger. Augered mini piles and reinforce concrete underpinning needle beams were installed to support the external walls of the property. All the works were carried out externally which allowed the client to remain in residence during the works.
