What the foundation needs to do
Even a relatively small industrial unit can place high loads at its columns and across a trafficked floor. Frame reactions, door openings, drainage and internal plant all need to be reflected in the foundation design.
JustBases quotes for in-scope excavation, sub-base, reinforced concrete and related groundwork to an approved structural package. Design responsibility and statutory approvals remain clearly identified for each project.
Options, assessed properly
Suitable foundation methods
The methods below are possibilities to assess—not interchangeable specifications. We match the foundation to the product, loads, support points, ground and access.
Ground screws
Ground screws and support frame
Engineered screw or helical systems can be considered for suitable modular or lightweight structures when designed and tested for the site.
Often worth considering for: Selected framed buildings where an approved piled solution is preferred
A written price for the approved detail
Specialist foundations are quoted from the actual product, support plan and site information. No VAT is added to the guide prices shown.
Before installation
Dimensions, approvals and responsibilities
This is a designed commercial foundation, not an enlarged garden-building base. A coordinated package should identify geotechnical assumptions, frame reactions, reinforcement, drainage and service penetrations.
We will define exactly which parts JustBases supplies and which remain with the engineer, steelwork contractor and principal contractor before work starts.
JustBases quotes the agreed foundation and groundwork. Product installation, specialist connections, commissioning and third-party design remain outside our scope unless the written quotation expressly includes them.

Reviews of our foundation work
"I couldn't recommend Craig highly enough! Communication prior to the job was outstanding even considering our ever changing goal posts. Craig and his team turned up exactly at the agreed time, were well presented, friendly and professional. The cleanliness, attention to detail and quality of the job was outstanding."
"Good standard of workmanship. Friendly and efficient. Prompt response for estimate and fitted into our timescale. Will be using the firm in future and thoroughly recommend them."
"Craig and his team were very professional throughout the job. They worked tirelessly and extremely hard. The job involved digging up a thick reinforced concrete base. Then creating a whole new base with precision engineering in preparation to accept a new building on top. The result was an excellent job all round."
