Drilling is used when rocky ground conditions do not allow a driven or augered pile to be installed. Augered piles are used when heave is a possiblity, to achieve a higher load capacity, or reduce vibrations caused by driven piles. Bottom driven piles are used in poor ground conditions, or restricted sites, where deep foundations are impractical. Mini piles are installed as part of the foundations of a building or structure, where access is limited, and deep foundations are impractical.
Mini piling can be used for the installation of foundations for new-build housing, for the extension or underpinning of existing structures, office or industrial units for mezzanine floors or to support heavy machinery, for basement construction, retaining walls and foundations for road, rail and all other types of civil engineering projects.

The GP Services D500 Drop Weight Piling Rig is a compact drop hammer piling rig with a towable power pack and a maximum lift capacity of 500kg. Its size, towable power pack and optional umbilical hoses make it ideal for use on restricted sites and inside buildings. For installing bottom driven piles at 100mm, 150mm, 165mm, 198mm, 220mm and 273mm diameters.
Our fleet of 130 and 95 grundopile grundomats are pneumatically operated, self contained reciprocating piling hammers ideal for use on restricted sites such as household extensions or one off house builds. Bottom driven piles are used in poor ground conditions, or restricted sites, where deep foundations are impractical.
Our Geax XD9 is a drilling rig for installing bored piles. The XD series are the smallest hydraulic piling rigs in the world and are designed to work in tight spaces. The minimum working height is just 2.8m and a width of 1.6m. Although compact, the XD9 is equipped with all the features of a larger rig, such as depth meter, spin off speed auxiliary winch and winch limits.
