V.G. Bailey (Contractors) Ltd. - Piling

 

 

We have the capability to install open bore, temporary casing and drop hammer piles. These methods are used for our own projects and are available for hire with an operator and banksman.

Concrete cubes and Pile testing can be supplied upon request.
We are based in Essex but can mobilise quickly anywhere in the home counties including Kent and Surrey.

Our largest rotary piling rig weighs 30 tonnes and has a maximum drilling depth of 30 metres. We can install 350mm to 1.4metres diameter piles. A piling mat is required for this machine to keep it stable in its working position. This machine also offers temporary casing methods of piling up to 20 metres.

 

These methods prove invaluable when drilling through loose strata in the upper levels and drilling into clay in the sub levels. This machine is large but is also able to drill close to existing buildings provided the headroom is available.

 

Also, this machine is able to lift its auger higher than most other piling rigs of its size allowing the auger to be lifted above temporary casings and tiered sites.

 

We also offer a 21 tonne rotary piling rig which is ideal for one-off houses because of its lightweight crawler base and maneuverability. This machine can operate, depending on surface conditions, without a piling mat, which in turn can save customer costs.

 

With a maximum drilling depth of 20 metres we offer 300mm to 1.1metre diameter piles.
