Our crews have completed countless mini piling and micro piling projects across Hemel Hempstead and wider Hertfordshire, working confidently around the area’s chalk with clay-with-flints in the Gade valley.

Our mini piling services in Hemel Hempstead are ideal for sites with limited headroom or difficult access — a common challenge across Hemel Hempstead’s hillside plots and established residential estates. Using compact, low-vibration rigs, we install mini piles for house extensions, retaining walls, underpinning and refurbishments without disturbing neighbouring structures. For heavier loads, our micro piling solutions provide exceptional capacity with minimal disruption — ideal for basements, commercial builds and groundworks.

What is micro piling?

Micro piling (also called mini piling or pin piling) is a foundation technique using small-diameter piles (typically 100–300mm) that are drilled into the ground and reinforced with steel and grout. It’s used when standard piling is not possible due to access limitations, low headroom, or ground conditions.
