Delivering Foundations and Basements for Developers and House Builders

Posted by Glatthaar Keller Ltd on 25th July 2022 -

Developers trust Glatthaar Keller when they need experience, reliability and a quality product.

We do exactly what’s agreed in the contract, communicate clearly and make sure your build is delivered to budget and on time.

With over 40 years’ experience in concrete basement and foundation construction, we know what works. We offer a complete, fixed price basement package to satisfy all the planning and building regulations with a full 10 year company warranty.

Our tried and tested processes developed over more than 70,000 projects, mean we’re highly efficient and can respond quickly, with short lead times. With all stages handled in house by our own full time teams, we can organise schedules, health and safety, and onsite activity to suit your standards, building programme and deadlines.

Adding a basement to a new build property can significantly increase the saleable floorspace, and is a great way to overcome potential planning restrictions in areas of sensitivity, for either building height or increased footprint.

Our primary advantages over the traditional methods are the speed of delivery – what can take 5-6 months to complete with shuttering and an in-situ concrete pour can often be completed in 4-5 weeks – and the guaranteed watertight warranty, regardless of the local geological conditions or water table height. We’ve completed developments alongside the River Thames and other flood plain areas, as well as in earthquake zones and subsidence risk areas.

Whatever the potential challenges in your next development, give us a call to arrange a visit to some of our existing sites, or to your next project site – we know we can deliver.
