Building projects are stressful enough — you shouldn’t have to worry about foundation costs blowing out. With Ideal’s fixed-price foundation solution, you get certainty from the very start.
Our geotechnical team (Ideal Geotech) analyses soil profile, reactivity, and density to determine correct foundation depth.
We confirm your project meets the criteria for fixed pricing.
Our piling team installs your screw piles to specification, backed by full compliance documentation.
A Site/Lot Classification report serves as the starting point to provide essential insights into the soil profile, reactivity and density, which are critical for determining the appropriate pile installation depth.
Our residential 85kN piers cover the structural design requirements of most projects and are the product on which we offer fixed price piling solutions.
Fixed price applies up to 6m depth. For deeper requirements, we can arrange alternative solutions.
Piles must be installed in natural ground or L1 Certified fill to avoid settlement issues.
When you choose Ideal, you don’t just lock in your price — you unlock advantages that concrete pilling can’t match:
