Auger Piling services by Vxcel Piling
Specialist auger piling for urban environments, soft ground conditions, retaining walls, underpinning works and environmentally sensitive sites across the UK.
Auger piling is ideal for stable, efficient foundations in challenging conditions.
A quiet, efficient foundation method for a wide range of projects.
Auger piling involves drilling a deep hole into the ground using an auger, essentially a helical screw blade. As the auger rotates, it removes soil and creates a borehole ready for concrete installation.
Once the required depth is reached, concrete is installed to form a strong pile. This makes augered piling a popular choice for projects where reliable foundations are needed with reduced noise, vibration and disruption to the surrounding area.
Auger piling can help with:
- Reduced site disruption in built-up environments
- Fast installation and shorter project durations
- Stable foundations in suitable soil conditions
- Low-noise and low-vibration piling works
- Residential, commercial and infrastructure projects
Flexible auger piling solutions for different ground conditions.
Steel-Cased Auger Piling
Steel casing supports the surrounding soil and helps prevent collapse into the drilled hole, making it useful in unstable or loose soil conditions.
Open-Bored Auger Piling
Open bored auger piling uses a continuous auger without casing, making it well suited to stable soil conditions where collapse during drilling is less likely.
Sectional Flight Auger Piling
SFA piling uses sectional flights assembled on site, helping provide stable support for structures across residential, commercial and infrastructure projects.
Underpinning Works
Auger piling can support existing structures and help strengthen foundations where buildings require additional stability.
Retaining Walls
Using specialist piling rigs, Vxcel Piling can design and build retaining wall solutions to suit a wide range of environments and structures.
Environmentally Sensitive Sites
Low-noise and low-vibration installation can make auger piling a practical choice where disruption needs to be carefully controlled.
Why augered piling is a popular foundation solution.
Reduced disruption
Augered piling can be quieter and lower vibration than some piling methods, making it useful in urban and sensitive environments.
Cost-effective delivery
Because it can require less equipment and labour, auger piling can be an efficient and economical option for suitable projects.
Fast installation
The drilling and installation process can help reduce project durations and keep foundation works moving efficiently.
Minimal environmental impact
Less noise, vibration and ground disturbance can make auger piling a practical choice for nearby buildings and sensitive surroundings.
