At ABC Anchors, we know that installing screw piles can sometimes feel like a bit of a mystery – especially if it's your first time. Whether you're a contractor on site or a client planning your dream build, understanding the process can make all the difference. That’s why we’ve added a series of new pages to our website designed to walk you through each stage of screw pile installation – clearly, confidently, and with a touch of fun (because foundations don’t have to be boring!).
Here’s what’s new:
This is your go-to guide for the whole process – from the moment you first consider using screw piles, right through to when your structure is sitting solidly on its new foundations. This page gives you a step-by-step look at how we go from planning to piling. Think of it as your screw pile map.
Let’s be honest – what’s under the ground is just as important as what’s going on top of it. Before any installation can begin, it’s vital to understand the soil conditions. This new page explains why a soil investigation is essential, what information you need to collect, and how it helps determine the type and depth of piles required. Spoiler alert: it could save you time, money, and a few headaches later on.
We’ve taken the maths out of the mystery. On this page, we break down how to work out the load and torque values of your installation.. It’s not just theory – it’s the real-world data that ensures your screw piles are up to the job. We’ve included handy charts, explanations, and the reasons why torque is such a critical part of the installation process.
Want to be certain your chosen pile is right for the ground before you commit? You can now hire our Test Pile Kit, perfect for performing on-site tests before full installation begins. It’s a quick and efficient way to gain confidence in your pile selection, validate your load assumptions, and get real data from your site. Whether you're a contractor or engineer, this kit helps take the guesswork out of your foundation planning.
Sometimes the best way to understand a process is to see it in action. That’s why we’ve also added a page showcasing a few real-world case studies. These highlight projects where our screw piles made a big difference – from tricky ground conditions to tight-access installs. It's a great place to see our systems in use, learn from others’ experiences, and get inspired for your own project.
These new resources are part of our ongoing mission to make screw piling accessible, efficient, and understandable for everyone. Whether you're building a garden studio, a modular home, or a commercial unit, knowing what goes on beneath your structure gives you peace of mind.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have questions. Our team is always happy to talk torque!
