Piering Sydney

Piers and posts so a floor, a deck, or a wall has something to sit on

Piering Sydney work is posts in the ground: under a floor, under a deck, or as part of a retaining wall. The dig still has to fit the site. The ground still has to take the load. We look at that before we quote.

Piering Sydney – Elite Demolition & Excavation Sydney & Central Coast

How this job runs

Piers fail when they are too shallow, in the wrong ground, or in a hole you cannot keep open. We dig, we set, we backfill so the next trade can land a bearer or a wall on something that does not move. Under an existing house the access is usually the hard part: a crawl space, a side path, a neighbour's boundary. New-build piers on a cleared block are simpler on the machine, still specific on the levels.

This sits next to carpentry when the deck or the floor is ours as well, and next to excavation when the site is already open. One booking if the same crew is already there. Licensed carpentry is 397254C. The dig is the demolition and excavation crew.

Decks and framing sit on timber framing and timber decking. Piers are the bit in the ground that those jobs stand on.

We inspect, then we quote. Photos of the underside, the side access, and the street help. Call 0487 549 909 or send the suburb and a couple of photos.

From first look to handover

  1. 01

    See the access

    Crawl space, side path, or open block. The hole is useless if we cannot get a machine or a crew to it.

  2. 02

    Dig and set

    Depth and size to the brief. Ground that will not hold a pier gets a conversation before we pour.

  3. 03

    Hand over the support

    The carpenter or the wall crew can land on it. Backfill is in the quote if you want the site tidy.

Piering and structural support FAQs

Do you install piers under existing houses?

Yes, when we can reach them. Access under the floor is the first limit. Photos of the underside and the side path help us quote.

Is piering part of a retaining wall job?

Often. Posts and piers are how a lot of timber walls start. We can quote them together.

Do you do piers and the timber floor on the same booking?

Yes. Carpentry licence 397254C covers the timber. The same company can dig the piers. Say both on the quote.
