I ordered the remaining brackets and screws and they arrived promptly. I then found that I had ordered the wrong size brackets. I rang TGSC and the replacement brackets arrived the next day special delivery and at no extra charge. I just had to return the wrong brackets once I had finished with the rental tool. BTW anyone thinking of this should definitely get the ratchet tool. All the ground screws are now in place with a sub-base built ready for my new log cabin. The alternative of a concrete base would have been significantly more difficult to do due to access and a slope to the ground, and I expect significantly more expensive.

FAQs about our Domestic Installation Service
-
Ground Screws use the standard pile principles which have been reliably applied since the time of the Ancient Greeks. The process of installing the Ground Screws will compact the local surrounding soil and solidifying the substructure. Other forces such as skin friction, clamping pressure and positively thread interlocking will all contribute to its load bearing capacity.
This method ensures your foundation requires no digging, no mess, no concrete and makes the installation process 75% faster than concrete.
