Ancora Foundations Ltd

Ancora Foundations is a professional, reliable, and cost-effective contractor specialising in mini piling and ground engineering services across London and the South East. They possess the geotechnical knowledge to provide cost-effective engineered solutions tailored to project requirements. The company collaborates with project stakeholders, including architects, structural engineers, and building contractors, to ensure timely and budget-conscious project delivery.

Operating across domestic, residential, and commercial sectors, Ancora Foundations is committed to delivering safe, professional services built on shared values and a collaborative approach. Their services include piled raft slabs, which are structural reinforced concrete foundations offered as a package for domestic and residential sectors. They manage projects from conceptual design through to construction, assessing ground conditions and proposing suitable piling solutions using augured and driven techniques.

Ancora also provides piled ground beams, designed to link piles and transfer loads, forming a platform for superstructure construction. These beams are constructed from concrete and steel reinforcement, with excavation and concrete pouring following pile installation. A key specialism is restricted access mini piling, utilising small plant and equipment suitable for tight working environments.

Their smallest piling rig can fit through a standard doorway, making it ideal for extensions to existing buildings. They employ techniques such as SFA (Sectional Flight Auger) for low noise and vibration, and SCD (Steel Cased Driven) piling.
