Fill soil and screw piles in Rae Parish

New homes often sit on recently placed fill that has not compacted naturally and may settle in its first years. A standard pile could remain in the loose layer. We probe the soil to 1.5 m on new-build sites in Rae Parish and add a 1 m extension where needed, taking the pile's helix through the fill to natural ground at 2.5 m. We have extended 612 piles on fill sites in Rae Parish.

Spring groundwater lies close to the surface in Peetri, so we avoid excavating pits for concrete blocks on Rae Parish sites.

Our services in Rae Parish

Our warehouse in Peetri is 3 km from new developments in Järveküla and Assaku. Many homes are handed over without a terrace: 164 of our 227 Rae Parish construction jobs were first terraces for new homes. Our six services cover foundations, construction and ongoing care.

  • A builder carries a decking board across a partly laid timber terrace, with the bare frame in front. We leave a temporary walkway by the terrace door during construction.

    Wooden Terrace Construction

    At a new home in Rae Parish, we keep timber decking at least 30 cm above ground so damp air can escape beneath it. On sites in Peetri and Järveküla, we leave two sides of the terrace open for ventilation rather than closing them with edge boards or slats.

  • A builder fits a grey composite board outside a house. Rubber tape beneath the decking helps reduce footstep noise.

    Composite Terrace Construction

    On exposed new-build sites in Rae Parish, a south-facing composite terrace can sit in sun all day without shade trees. We recommend a lighter board: a dark one can reach 60°C in July sun. Customers can view all colours at our Peetri warehouse before ordering.

  • A worker checks the level of beams on concrete blocks; every beam joint sits above a block or pile head.

    Terrace Foundation

    We keep terrace foundation piles at least 50 cm from a new home's plinth so they do not pierce the drainage pipe or insulation installed around it. Before planning the piles, we ask for the house drainage plan and mark the pipe's location on site.

  • A worker brushes oil onto timber decking, moving from the house wall towards the steps to avoid walking on wet boards.

    Terrace Oiling and Maintenance

    A new treated pine terrace needs to dry outdoors for six months before its first oil coat. Our maintenance crew travels from the Peetri warehouse to Rae Parish customers and can service Järveküla and Assaku terraces in one day.

  • A builder on a ladder fastens rafters above a terrace. We plan the rafters on all four sides before installation.

    Construction of shelters

    On narrow plots in Rae Parish, we direct rainwater from shelter roofs into the site drainage, away from neighbouring gardens. Where privacy matters, such as in the terraced house gardens of Järveküla, we can fit a slatted screen on the neighbour-facing side. It blocks the view while allowing air to pass through.

  • A builder lifts old decking with a pry bar, with replacement boards nearby. We open the decking in three places before quoting for repairs.

    Terrace Repair

    Blocks beneath early new-build terraces can settle in loose fill. We lift the sunken corner with a jack, install a screw pile beneath it and attach the beam to the new pile head without removing the decking.

Where in Rae Parish do you build terraces?

We work throughout Rae Parish, including Peetri, Järveküla, Assaku, Uuesalu, Jüri, Lagedi and Vaida. We also make test holes on older farm and allotment sites, where natural ground and groundwater differ from newer developments.

When can you build a terrace at a new home?

We can build once the façade is complete. On filled ground, a 1 m pile extension takes the helix through the fill to natural soil. Pile installation in Rae Parish begins no later than the 14th working day after an order is confirmed.
