Saving you time and money on your Construction Projects.

You only get one chance to get the foundations right.
That’s why developers choose specialists.

For us piled raft systems aren’t an add-on, they’re our core expertise. From design through to installation, every stage is handled with precision and care.

Getting it right the first time saves more than money, it … more

What happens when your site sits on Made Ground, superficial clay and completely weathered siltstone?

You need more than a standard foundation design.

For the Wendover Manor Care Home development, the ground conditions presented several challenges, including the requirement for full heave protection beneath the entire building footprint using a voidformer. … more

Unexpected ground conditions can quickly derail a project, impacting programme, budget, and overall delivery.

What starts as a straightforward scheme can change rapidly once work begins on site. Poor ground, hidden obstructions, or inaccurate assumptions can lead to redesigns, delays, and escalating costs that ripple through the entire build.

Made Ground. Clay. Sand. Former landfill sites. Challenging sites need smarter thinking. We help developers deliver efficient foundation solutions tailored to complex ground conditions and site constraints.

Traditional foundation solutions are not always the most cost-effective option. Our engineering-led approach helps developers avoid unnecessary over-engineering while maintaining performance, speed and buildability across the scheme.

Over-engineered foundations can add thousands to a project unnecessarily. At SPEEDECK we work with developers to deliver smarter foundation solutions that reduce costs, improve programme times and suit challenging ground conditions. Some schemes have achieved savings of up to 50% compared to traditional foundation approaches.

Phase 3B at Headley Court is now complete, with a further 14 plots and garages successfully delivered for @Elivia Homes

This phase involved the installation of both voided and non-voided piled raft foundation solutions, working on the complete project which is located across a total of 4,073m², supporting 47 new homes and associated garages.
