Foundation.

Build.
Ground screw foundations and light gauge steel frames for garden rooms, studios, extensions and modular buildings—available as individual systems or a coordinated structural route.
One structural route
From the ground
to the frame.
Specify the foundation and frame separately, or discuss them together. Ground screws establish the base; the light gauge steel frame forms the building above.

Ground Screw Foundations
for Garden Rooms
Fast, no-dig structural foundations installed using hydraulic equipment. Ground screws can replace traditional concrete bases on suitable projects and remove the concrete curing stage. The next construction stage can begin once the installed foundation has been checked and accepted for the project.
Ideal for
- Installed in hours — build immediately
- No excavation required
- Suitable for sloping ground
- Fully removable — no permanent concrete
Steel Frame Garden Room
Structures
Pre-engineered light gauge steel structures designed for garden rooms, studios and modular buildings. Precision manufactured and delivered ready to assemble — no site cutting required.
Ideal for
- Galvanised structural steel
- Precision-manufactured components
- Efficient assembly — components pre-cut and prepared
- Standard and project-specific frame sizes available
Many Projects Use Both Systems Together
Ground screws as the foundation + steel frame as the structure = a complete, coordinated structural platform from one supplier. Bundle orders receive combined pricing discounts.
Modular Construction
How Ground Screws & Steel Frames Work Together
Many modern garden room builds combine ground screw foundations with steel frame structures. This modular construction approach allows builders to prepare the entire structural platform quickly and accurately — without concrete, without waiting, without coordination problems.
Ground screws create the structural base: installed hydraulically, torque-verified and ready to build on within hours. The steel frame then forms the load-bearing skeleton — floor joists, wall studs and roof rafters — bolted directly to the screw head plates with precisely aligned load paths.
Because both systems come from Forti Nova, the screw layout is designed specifically around your frame specification. No surprises on site. No tolerance gaps. One engineered system from foundation to roofline.
Engineered to Work Together
Screw layouts are designed around your specific frame spec. Foundation and frame layouts can be coordinated around the same project information, reducing avoidable site coordination issues.
One Accountable Supplier
No passing blame between foundation and frame contractors. A coordinated Forti Nova supply route gives the project one point of contact for the foundation and frame package, with installation and engineering responsibilities defined in the written scope.
Simplified Procurement
One order. One invoice. One delivery schedule. Add roofing, waterproofing and cladding for a complete build from source.
Coordinate Foundation and Frame
Ground screws can remove the concrete curing stage from suitable projects. Installation, verification and frame erection are programmed around the actual site, structure and agreed scope.
