1. Reliable and Efficient Foundations for Multi-Unit Developments

We recently began foundation work on a 33-unit, two-story residential project in Camden South, South West Sydney. The builder had previously partnered with Ideal Foundations for a 22-unit project in Oran Park, where our screw piling solutions helped them get out of the ground faster.

After experiencing the benefits—rapid installation, minimal site disruption, and cost predictability—they chose Ideal Foundations again for their latest development.

2. Why Choose Fixed Price for Foundations?

Traditional bored concrete piers often lead to unexpected costs due to site variations and excavation challenges. However, our fixed price foundations eliminate these uncertainties by:

Conducting a comprehensive geotechnical report to determine accurate founding depths.
Identifying soil conditions, such as acid sulphate soils, and implementing solutions like concrete core filling for durability.
Optimizing the foundation design, transitioning from bored piers to screw piling, which provides a faster and more cost-effective solution.
