Frequently Asked Questions
What is the lifespan of screw piles?
Screw piles can last 75 to 100 years or more when properly installed and protected. Galvanised or coated steel resists corrosion in most soil conditions, offering long-term durability without ongoing maintenance. The actual lifespan depends on the soil’s acidity, moisture and exposure to oxygen. In residential and commercial settings, screw piles often outlast the structure they support, making them a long-term foundation solution for new builds, extensions or industrial applications.
Can underpinning fix cracks in walls?
Underpinning helps fix the cause of wall cracks by stabilising and re-levelling the foundation. While it doesn’t close the cracks itself, it stops further movement so cosmetic repairs can be done confidently. Once the structure is stable, a builder or plasterer can repair the affected areas. It’s important to complete underpinning before making aesthetic repairs to avoid repeated damage caused by ongoing structural movement.
Is screw piling environmentally friendly?
Screw piling is considered environmentally friendly due to its low impact on the surrounding site. It requires no excavation, produces minimal soil waste and doesn’t rely on concrete, reducing emissions and curing delays. The piles can be removed and reused, making them suitable for temporary or low-impact builds. The process is also quieter and cleaner than traditional footings, making it ideal for sensitive residential or environmentally regulated areas.
How do I know if I need underpinning or screw piling?
The choice between underpinning and screw piling depends on the structure type, existing damage and whether it’s a new or existing build. Underpinning is used when footings have moved or sunk, while screw piling supports new construction or adds strength to existing foundations. A structural engineer can inspect the site, review soil conditions and building plans, then recommend the most suitable option based on safety and compliance requirements.
