Rain. Wind. Cold ground. None of it stops a ground screw installation 💪

Unlike concrete, which is weather-dependent and needs time to cure in the right conditions, ground screws go in whatever October throws at us. No delays, no rescheduling, no excuses.

Your project stays on track.

The clocks go back at the end of the month and the darker days are coming 🍂

But autumn is actually one of the best times to get a ground screw installation done. No concrete to worry about curing in cold temperatures, no weather delays, and our teams are still operating nationwide with availability.

Get your project booked in before winter arrives.

There's a lot more to a ground screw installation than putting screws in the ground 📐

Every GBGS installation project starts with a full site survey to identify underground cables, pipes and obstacles. From there our technical team calculates the correct screw diameter, length and installation depth based on the structural load of your project.

Where required, we carry out full on-site load testing and provide certification for submission to planning and building control authorities.

Engineering-led. Approval-ready. Every time.

Ground screws are faster than concrete, cleaner than traditional methods, and built for long-term performance. No excavation, no mess, no curing time. Just a solid, level base ready to build on the same day.

Perfect for sloped ground, gardens with limited access, and projects where time and budget matter 👌

We get calls every week from homeowners who've been quoted weeks of disruption and thousands in groundwork costs for a garden building foundation 😬

In most cases, ground screws get the job done in a morning, at a lower cost (typically a THIRD less) and with zero mess left behind.

If you've had a quote for concrete foundations and want to know if there's a better way, give our team a call to discuss.

The UK's renewable energy sector is growing fast and ground screws are becoming the foundation of choice for solar and battery storage installations across the country ⚡

Whether it's a ground-mounted solar array in a field, a large-scale solar farm, or a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), ground screws offer everything that concrete simply can't:

🌱 Minimal ground disturbance - no excavation, no concrete, no lasting damage to the land
⏱️ Installed in a fraction of the time - keeping your project on programme and reducing labour costs
🔩 Engineered to handle significant structural loads across uneven, sloped or challenging terrain
♻️ Fully removable and reusable - if the site use changes or planning conditions require it, the screws come out cleanly and the land is returned to its original state

From initial site survey and load testing through to full nationwide installation, GBGS provide a complete turnkey foundation service for solar and renewable energy projects of any scale.

The only ground screw company in the industry to hold ISO 9001, Constructionline Gold and CHAS Gold 🏅

Great to see this one finished! 🙌

We recently completed a ground screw installation for a residential annex build in Bedfordshire and the finished project looks brilliant.

Before installation began, our team carried out an on-site load test to verify that the required structural capacities could be achieved. Once confirmed, we returned to complete the full installation, using a combination of 1550mm, 1750mm, 2050mm and 2550mm DIN EN ISO 1461 hot-dip galvanised ground screws to accommodate the varying structural loads and changes in site gradient.

The full installation was completed in just 1.5 days, meeting all structural requirements and achieving full Building Regulations and Building Control approval ✅

From initial load testing and design verification right through to a fully approved, engineered foundation, this is exactly the kind of project we love to be part of.
