Hi, can anyone recommend a foundation pile company in Kent (Canterbury).

The job is not large. A piled raft foundation (24m2) with full anti heave measures , 8 piles and a RC slab. I can organise from the slab upwards.

Planning permission and architect/structural calculations all approved.

Thanks

They're a national company, piling is the main thing they do. wink

We had a good experience of Abbey Pynford. I've just put a video up on YouTube of them putting the piles in:

Quote was good, competitive with Bullivant, but they also do a house deck cast deck solution which we went for to give a solid slab. The teams were excellent, did a good job with very little fuss. Watch out for the concrete lorries though - they clean out and leave you with piles of slowly setting slurry in inconvenient places.
