Lancaster and surrounding rural or coastal sites should identify exposure, access and ground information early so the foundation and superstructure can be checked as one design.

Ground screws are a design decision, not a postcode product. Start with the structure, loads, ground, services, levels and access before comparing quotations.

Lancaster coverage
The page covers Lancaster, Morecambe, Heysham, Carnforth, Galgate and relevant LA1, LA2 addresses. Coverage means Forti Nova can review the enquiry; it is not a claim that one foundation design suits the whole area.
Stop-and-check conditions
Unknown services, uncontrolled fill, obstructions, contaminated ground, inadequate access or an undefined load path require further investigation or a revised foundation approach before installation.

View all Forti Nova systems for Lancaster Ground screw questions for Lancaster
Can Forti Nova quote ground screws for a Lancaster project?
Yes. Send the structure or base plan, intended use, site photographs, levels, access and full Lancaster delivery address. Forti Nova can then confirm the supply and approved-contractor route.
Are ground screws suitable for every site?
No. Suitability depends on the structure, loads, ground conditions, buried services, drainage, levels, access and the design method. Unsuitable or uncertain ground requires further investigation or another foundation approach.
What should a ground screw quotation identify?
It should state the screw specification, quantity, layout, connections, design assumptions, installation and verification method, engineering responsibility, delivery, exclusions and who signs off each stage.
Does Forti Nova install the foundations?
Forti Nova supplies systems and can route suitable projects to trained approved contractors. The written quotation must identify the contractor and the responsibilities for design, service checks, installation, records and handover.
