Our Screw Piling Services
Screw piling is an invaluable part of stabilising a building or structure. With screw piling, anchors are driven deep into the earth to support deep foundations. Screw piles replace the need for bored piers or concrete pads and stumps for timber floors. They have a high tension capacity because of their helical shape and can be installed on any angle. The installation process is quick, quiet and environmentally friendly. If you are building anywhere with unstable soil, call Allstate Screw piling contractors to secure the site.
We provide screw piling and other services for domestic, commercial and industrial applications. Screw piles are also used to stabilise houses and buildings that are on hills, cliffs or other steep sites, or to protect tree roots.
Our Other Services
In addition to screw piling services, we provide excavation services, footing foundation work, welding services, slab preparation and other tasks that are often part of the screw piling process.

Screw Piles Versus Bored Piers
When comparing screw piles to bored piers, there are several advantages that make screw piles an attractive choice in certain construction scenarios. Here are some key advantages of screw piles:
- Installation Efficiency: Screw piles are typically faster and easier to install compared to bored piers. They are installed using specialized equipment that can quickly and accurately screw the piles into the ground, reducing installation time and labour costs.
- Cost-Effectiveness: The installation process for screw piles requires less heavy machinery and equipment compared to bored piers. This can lead to cost savings, especially on projects where time is a critical factor. Additionally, the ability to accurately measure the torque during installation allows for more precise cost estimates.
- Minimal Site Disruption: Screw piles cause minimal disruption to the surrounding area during installation. They do not require extensive excavation or soil removal, which reduces the impact on the environment. This advantage is particularly beneficial in urban areas or sites with limited space.
- Versatility: Screw piles can be used in a wide range of soil conditions, including cohesive soils, wet and loose soils, and even rocky terrains. They are versatile and can be adapted to various construction projects, such as residential buildings, commercial structures, and foundation repairs.
- Immediate Load Capacity: Screw piles offer immediate load-carrying capacity after installation. As soon as they are in place, they can support the weight of the structure, eliminating the need for curing time or waiting periods before construction can proceed.
- Adjustable and Removable: Screw piles are adjustable and can be easily levelled during installation. This flexibility allows for precise positioning, ensuring optimal load distribution. Additionally, if required, screw piles can be removed and reused, making them a sustainable option.
- Stability and Durability: Screw piles provide excellent stability and durability. The helical shape of the pile provides increased bearing capacity and resistance against vertical and horizontal forces, making them suitable for a variety of load-bearing applications.
It's worth noting that the choice between screw piles and bored piers depends on various factors, including soil conditions, project requirements, and engineering recommendations. Call Allstate Screw piling today to discuss the most suitable Piling solution for your specific project.
