CLICK TO CALL GET A QUOTETypically quicker than the bored variation, CFA piles involve specialised equipment that removes the soil and fills the hole in a single move. Below, we look at the process as well as its numerous benefits.
This type of piling is achieved by rotating a stem, known as a continuous flight auger, through the soil to the required depths. Our piling contractors pump the concrete through the hollow stem, filling the hole while the auger is removed. This process forces the soil to ground level, which we then clear away. At this point, we move a concrete cage into the cement to create a reinforced subsurface structure.
With a quality assurance program and a focus on health and safety, we perform this service with the greatest of care. Thankfully, CFA piling is already one of the safer piling methods available for your project in Bromley, Sevenoaks, Bexley, Surrey or the surrounding regions.
Installing CFA piles involves low levels of vibration and is far quieter than alternative piling methods. It’s economical, provides excellent load-bearing capacities, and is the perfect choice for areas with limited space. Additionally, the CFA technique does well to resist lateral and compressive loads and achieves a depth of up to 32 metres. You also won’t need any temporary casings or support systems for your project.
Our piling contractors often recommend CFA piling in Bromley, Sevenoaks, Bexley and the surrounding Surrey areas if there’s a high water table or certain ground conditions. This includes gravel, silt, sand, clay and soft rock.
This is just one method available, however. We also carry out sheet, driven and secant piling, to name a few. As such, we always have the perfect solution to suit groundwork and foundation needs.
