You have three options to find out how many foundations you need for your project:

What is the construction process like with GroundPlug® PilexProTM as a foundation choice?
- Preliminary calculation of the project. When you have filled in as many project details as possible in our project form and have attached drawings and a geotechnical report, we will pre-calculate the project and prepare an offer for you. Depending on where in the project phase you are and how precise information we can get, the final price may vary more or less from the offer.
- When you accept the offer, if necessary, more detailed documentation and calculation will be prepared for final approval/building application.
- When we agree on the scope of the task, we send our competent installation team out to the construction site. If you have not chosen to be responsible for this part yourself, we clear and plan to the extent necessary and measure and set aside foundation points. We may possibly also provide LER drawings.
- The PilexProTM foundations are then screwed into the ground. . We typically install with an 8 tonne excavator. We always have extra extension pieces and alternative products with us, should we risk encountering unknown conditions or challenges in the ground. In this way, we can quickly solve the problem and obtain sufficient foundations, so that you avoid delays in the construction process.
- When all foundations have been installed and fitted with the desired top bracket, we clear the site and are now ready for the further construction process immediately.
- Any additional documentation can be provided upon request.
