Price for a Substation Base

Please contact us for prices on substation bases, foundations for substations and a complete site preparation service for a substation. Substation construction companies.

Foundations groundworks regularly install the groundworks for substation bases. We can work alongside an appointed earthing team or we can supply the earthing through our partners.

You have probably found this page as you are either weighing up the options of going direct with either UKPN or SSEN or you have committed to them already. We have experience dealing with either company. Neither dig trenches or a hole for the base which are the most vital part of the construction of the substations. Without trenches the cable cannot get to the sub station and without excavating the base the sub station will not be able to be installed. With UKPN they require for laying the cables to and from the substation all excavations, supply and installation of ducts, sand blasting, stage backfill, warning tape and reinstatement.

SSEN however also do require all excavations, sand blasting and reinstatement but they supply and fit the cable direct to the excavated trenches. For the base itself we have preformed shuttering, angle brackets etc all set out in the correct dimensions including earthing points ready for the concrete pour.

If your looking for a specialist substation groundworks company then Foundations Groundworks are the right company to quote. We have the experience, workforce, plant, machinery and more importantly the ethos to deliver within the specified time scales to ensure no delays.
