Foundations
that mean
business.
Engineered ground screw foundations installed across the South Coast of England. No concrete. No mess. No excuses. From back-garden builds to commercial-scale projects — anchored, accurate, and ready in days.
What exactly is a
ground screw?
Ground screws are precision-engineered steel shafts with helical plates that are driven deep into the earth using specialist hydraulic machinery. Think enormous structural screws — no excavation, no concrete, no curing time.
The result: a load-bearing foundation that's faster, cleaner and more sustainable than traditional methods, with serious holding power for projects of every scale.
We don't pour foundations.
We engineer them.
Fast, year-round install
Up and anchored in a day. No curing time. We work through winter, wet ground and tight schedules.
Eco-friendly, no concrete
Zero excavation, zero concrete pour. We protect the landscape and leave the site as we found it.
Engineered load capacity
Each screw individually torque-tested on installation. Backed by structural certification.
Removable & reusable
Need to relocate? Screws come out as cleanly as they went in. A genuinely circular foundation.
Big or small —
we anchor it.
From a single garden studio in Brighton to multi-hundred-screw solar arrays in Wiltshire, we install with the same precision.
Garden Rooms & Studios
Premium outbuildings, anchored level on any ground.
Decking & Walkways
Hardwood and composite decks, raised over uneven terrain.
Solar Arrays
Ground-mount PV foundations at scale, fully ballast-free.
Modular & Timber Builds
Cabins, lodges and modular commercial structures.
Enquiry to anchored
in days, not weeks.
Survey
Site assessment, ground analysis and load calculations — usually within 48 hours of enquiry.
Quote
Fixed, transparent pricing. No surprises. Detailed install schedule and structural specification.
Install
Hydraulic install, individually torque-tested. Most projects anchored in a single day on site.
Build-ready
Walk away with a certified, level, build-ready foundation. Your build can start immediately.
Right across the
South Coast.
We're a local outfit with regional reach. Whether you're on the Solent, in the New Forest, on the Sussex Downs or out in the West Country — we'll bring the rig.
Specified by
people who build.
They surveyed on Tuesday and we were building on Friday. Faultless install, zero mess on a sensitive garden site.
We've used Southern Ground Screws on three solar projects now. Punctual, certified, and the only crew we'll specify going forward.
Quoted Tuesday, anchored Thursday. The build came in ahead of schedule because of it.
Straight answers,
no waffle.
Let's lay the
groundwork.
Drop us a line with the basics — site location, project type, and rough size. We'll come back to you within one working day with next steps.
