Firm Foundations Ltd
Are Specialist Contractors offering a comprehensive package for both private and business clients, ranging from straightforward traditional underpinning to complex stabilisation projects as well as specialist foundations designed for use in difficult ground conditions.
Since formation in the early eighties, Firm Foundations has built and continues to build a lasting reputation based on accumulated years of experience in the building industry. We believe that the most important aspect of any trading business is the personal attention that clients receive, George Prall and his co-directors spend a great deal of time overseeing all contracts as well as designating a site Forman responsible for the daily running of each contract.
Starting with tried and tested traditional underpinning methods we constantly review procedures to ensure the most economical solution is used. Over the years we have enhanced and developed installation methods from large development sites for use on small project ranging from specialist foundations for small extensions to limited development sites.
We have over 20-years experience of practical design and installation of specialist foundations in difficult ground conditions adapting traditional systems for a variety of projects from small extensions to access limited developments.
Over the years we have adapted our traditional underpinning systems to act as retaining walls for basement creation projects making extending downwards a lot more practical. Notwithstanding our professional capabilities we are more than happy to install any pre-designed engineers specialist schemes.
