Piling contractor in Essex

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a piling contractor in Essex?

We're adding a 2 storey extension to the rear of our house and unfortunately due to the neighbours leylandii, we need piling down to 10 metres :(

Thanks

Stu

    You'd be better off paying off the neighbours the cost of the piling to have the tree removed.

    Do a google search for piling companies in Essex, get a quote of 3 or so specialists. Perhaps a couple of local contractors and a national.



    I'd also ask your structural engineer who he would recommend.
