What Are Screw Piles?
Screw piles, also called helical piles or screw piers, are steel foundation systems screwed directly into the ground using hydraulic machinery. Unlike traditional concrete stumps or bored piers, they require no excavation, no concrete curing, and no waiting. Once installed, they’re ready to load immediately.
Each pile features a central steel shaft with helical (spiral) blades welded around it. As the pile rotates into the ground, the blades displace rather than remove soil, creating strong interlocking friction and load-bearing capacity.
Screw Piling has become a vital solution in fortifying buildings and structures and is one of the primary services we offer at Koble Constructions.

FAQs
How much do screw piles cost in Melbourne?
Screw pile pricing depends on the number of piles, pile size, soil conditions, and site access. Residential jobs typically range from a few thousand dollars upward. Contact us with your plans and soil report for an accurate, obligation-free quote.
How long does screw pile installation take?
Most residential jobs are completed in a single day. Larger commercial projects may take several days. Compare that to bored piers, which require concrete curing over multiple days before loads can be applied.
Do I need an engineer's report for screw piles?
Yes, and we handle it. Every installation is engineered to your site’s specific soil conditions and certified to AS 2159. We provide all documentation required by your building surveyor.
Can screw piles be used on a sloped block?
Absolutely. Screw piles are an excellent solution for sloped sites where concrete footings would be difficult, expensive, or require significant earthworks. We install piles on angles to suit any site geometry.
What soil types suit screw piles?
Screw piles work in most Victorian soil types. Reactive clay, sandy loam, loose fill, and soft ground. Our team will assess your soil report and select the right pile specification for your conditions.
Are screw piles permanent?
Yes. Properly installed screw piles are engineered for a 50-year design life. They can also be removed if required, unlike concrete, which is permanent.
Can screw piles be used for decks and pergolas?
Yes, screw piles are a popular and cost-effective foundation for decks, pergolas, carports, and other outbuildings. They’re fast to install and don’t require a concrete pour.
