Our contracts director Roger Cox and nephew Sam have notched up another win with their Central Piling sponsored rally car, this time at Bournemouth & District Car Club’s two-day event at Bovington, Dorset, where they won Class C & came 8th overall, & all that in pouring rain!

We've got @FORSonline accreditation! Started with bronze and are now aiming for gold! Hoping to be on the top level of that podium by October! goo.gl/yyExxH

Look at this drop dead gorgeous new beast of ours - a Soilmec Ltd (U.K) SF-65 rig. Already in action.

Nine members of staff upped their game in a pre-season friendly for Central Piling-sponsored Silver End, a team managed by our HSQE manager Colin Newman. Players were Steve Hadley, Sam Nicole, Ashley Drew, Simon Johnson, Ian Todd, Simon Lyons, Sam Cabbani and Jordan Partridge.

A very big welcome goes to our very first dedicated plant trailer which is tasked with carrying all our mini rigs, mobile elevating work platforms and heavy plant to wherever they’re needed. So it’s going to be very busy! In this case it’s the Soilmec Ltd (U.K) SM 12 on board.

Our newest addition to our Transport Division!

10 members of our staff will cycle 50 miles of the Suffolk coast next Friday (Sept 14) to raise money for charities including Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital which saved the life of the son of our contracts director Roger Cox. To sponsor him go to goo.gl/cuAgMc

10 colleagues who cycled 50 miles of the Suffolk coast to raise money for charities have realised a total of £2,795 to date! This includes £570 for Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital by our contracts director Roger Cox. You can still sponsor him at goo.gl/cuAgMc

Lee Durrant, our operations supervisor, takes a daily briefing back to nature, to a park across the road from our site in Hackney where two of our SF 65s wait to install 900mm secant piles and 450mm bearing piles.

Our Dando soil investigation rig and two of our Soilmec Ltd (U.K) SF50 rigs at work on a fledgling education campus at Northstowe, Longstanton. We have a total of 4 rigs on site, helping to complete 1,372 piles – a big project!

Look at the latest additions to our plant department! We now have 5 of our own MEWPs (Mobile Elevating Work Platforms, for the not-so-familiar) and 1 concrete drum. Gorgeous aren’t they? But they won’t stay that clean for long ;-)

Getting into the festive spirit! Our Christmas tree takes Yuletide pride of place in reception at head office. 3 weeks and counting!

They said the new tablets would be a bitter pill to swallow but our site supervisor Chris Spurrier has taken the medicine well and got to grips with using the new “Big change tablets” which will further improve our quality control and productivity!

We have a visitor in head office today – meet the gorgeous Harley, a two-year-old Sproodle belonging to our procurement manager Ashley Drew. It’s going to be hard to get any work done! Just look at that face and how cute is her hi-vis!

There were some totally tasty Yuletide tops on display at head office today – national Christmas jumper day.

This week we started constructing our biggest piles yet! 1050 diameter to 36m deep. Going where no Central Piling Rig has ever gone before!

It's a beautiful day for piling! One of our #soilmec SF50 rigs at The Channels!

Happy Fri-YAY!!!
