QUALITY IS EVERYTHING
Quality is everything—our piling systems are crafted to perform
Helix screw
Featuring an engineered helix design, our piles deliver exceptional soil penetration.
Premium steel
We use screw piles crafted from Australian certified, premium grade high-tensile steel.
Always compliant
Our installations are performance tested to surpass industry standards.
We follow rigorous testing protocol to deliver rock solid pile integrity
SCREW PILE INTEGRITY
We use the strongest screw piles to surpass industry standards for compression and uplift resistance.
Static load
INSTALLATION TESTING
We add weight to the pile, step by step, to see if it can support long-term pressure. It helps us understand how the pile interacts with the soil and stress, like pulling or pushing forces.
Dynamic load
CERTIFICATION TESTING
We dynamically test the capacity of our screw piles by applying high-energy repeated force. The impact sends stress waves through the shaft, which we measure and analyse.

SCREW PILE BENEFITS
Why are screw piles so good?
Screw piers bring unmatched versatility, adaptability, and efficiency to foundation projects, making them the preferred choice for most builds.
OUR PROCESS
How we work with builders to deliver strong screw piles
Planning
We review your project plans to understand the site, soil and load-bearing needs.
Consultation
We collaborate with your team to create a plan that optimises efficiency and performance.
Installation
We use advanced hydraulic equipment to anchor each screw pile precisely and securely.
Testing
We conduct thorough quality checks to verfiry compliance with engineering standards.
Flexibility
Helical piles offer unmatched flexibility. Concrete foundations are fussy about soil conditions and need a stable, prepared surface. And they need digging, pouring, and curing. Both time-consuming and weather dependent.
Speed
Helical piles can be installed quickly and can bear loads immediately. This rapid setup keeps projects on track and minimises downtime, a major advantage for residential builders working with tight deadlines.
Durability
Helical piles are highly resilient in wet and corrosive soils, and much less likely to settle. Concrete foundations are more vulnerable to cracking in unstable soils or areas with frequent moisture changes, such as clay-heavy regions.
Impact
Helical piles are more eco-friendly due to their minimal ground disturbance and reduced material needs. They preserve the natural soil structure, limit erosion, and reduce the overall footprint of the construction process.
Expert guidance

Common screw pile FAQs
Here are some common questions about how screw piles work, their benefits, and when they’re the right choice for your project.
What are the limitations of screw piles?
Screw piles work well in most soil types but may require specialised techniques or equipment for installation in very hard rock or extremely dense soils.
How long do screw piles last?
Screw piles are designed to last as long as traditional foundations, often over 100 years, when properly designed and installed.
Do screw piles need to be filled with concrete?
No, screw piles generally don’t require concrete filling, as the helical plates provide stability. However, concrete can be added in some cases to increase load capacity.
Can screw piles go into rock?
Yes, screw piles can be installed into rock with specialised rock-cutting tips, though this requires advanced equipment and additional time.
How deep do screw piles need to go?
The depth of screw piles depends on the soil type and load requirements, but they generally reach 3 to 10 meters to achieve a stable foundation.
How much weight can a screw pile support?
The depth of screw piles depends on the soil type and load requirements, but they generally reach 3 to 10 meters to achieve a stable foundation.
Can you put screw piles under an existing building?
Yes, screw piles can be used for underpinning and stabilising existing structures, often with minimal disruption to the building.
What are the limitations of screw piles?
Screw piles work well in most soil types but may require specialized techniques or equipment for installation in very hard rock or extremely dense soils.
Are screw piles expensive?
While the initial cost of screw piles can vary, they often save money in the long run by reducing excavation, labor, and installation time.
Do screw piles rust?
The depth of screw piles depends on the soil type and load requirements, but they generally reach 3 to 10 meters to achieve a stable foundation.
Do screw piles settle?
Properly installed screw piles are designed to minimise settlement, providing stable, long-lasting support with minimal movement.
