Piling foundations have rapidly become one of the most popular construction methods of the 21st century and there's no guessing why once you know the facts. Piling is unquestionably one of the strongest and most reliable foundation techniques. After all, many of the world's most complex structures have piling to thank for their construction. Structural engineers across the world praise the technology for allowing large-scale building projects to take place in areas where a few years ago, construction was impossible.

The deserts of the middle east for example would not be the snaking metropolis of impressive cities we see today without piling foundations. What’s more, the famous New York City skyline would be a far cry smaller and many of the world's bridges would simply not exist. It's pretty safe to say then that piling is a modern-day structural marvel and the technology is constantly evolving.

The human race has always innovated and our drive for improved technology is one of the key points when explaining our species’ success. Of course, construction is an area where we have also looked to improve. You only need to look at a few ancient monuments to understand that buildings are incredibly important to us.

Piling foundations also experience innovation and technology is constantly improving and changing. So, as a customer, it is important that you stay up to date with all of the new innovations and one of the best ways to do this is by asking your contractors questions. So what are a few key questions you should ask? Keep reading this guide to find out!

WHAT PILING OPTIONS DO YOU OFFER?

As you might expect there are many different forms of piling solutions. So, you should ask your contractor, what services they offer and which method they think would work best for your property. The contractor is the piling expert so you should listen to their answer carefully but don't hesitate to ask any follow-up questions.
