Foundation Work (Piling and Anchors)

For foundation contractors who put in piles, supports and underpinning to hold a building up.

208 licensees on QBCC’s register hold this class. 115 hold it as a contractor licence, so can sign a contract with you directly.

What this licence covers
  • Digging and putting in supports for excavations
  • Underpinning, which means strengthening or deepening the foundations under an existing building
  • Piles of all kinds, including driven, cast-in and bored piles
  • Concrete for foundation work
  • Pumping water out of a site, including permanent drainage systems for this

Good to know

Like most trade licences, it also lets the holder do small jobs from another class that are part of the main job, as long as each is worth less than $3,300 and isn’t plumbing, drainage, gas or other work that needs its own licence.
