Cannon Piling - focused on operational excellence
Cannon Piling creates solutions that add value. Whatever your piling needs, we are confident in our ability to design and deliver a tailor made solution which solves your project's challenges and creates value for your scheme.
A family owned and run business for over 20 years, Cannon know how integral effective communication and collaboration are, which is why we're proud to say that working with us is working with a partner, not just a contractor.
A part of Aarsleff Ground Engineering since 2022, we are delighted to be able to offer a wide range of ground engineering solutions through the group, including retaining walls and geotechnical services like grouting and anchors. This collaboration strengthens our offering to your schemes through wider services and access to a wide range of equipment and resource through Aarsleff's European group.

Safety and Accreditations
Safety is a cultural pillar for Cannon Piling, with Life & Health making us one of our three core values. We do everything to ensure our team and yours work safely on our sites.
What we do has the potential to create serious hazards for our employees and others involved with our sites, so health and safety is our highest priority. We constantly monitor our performance, with a large focus on reporting near misses, to allow our staff to learn and improve before accidents occur. Training and preventative measures form a key part of our health and safety culture and we focus on upskilling our staff on issues related to themselves and their colleagues.
As part of our ongoing integration into the Aarsleff Group, we are in the process of aligning our accreditations with Aarsleff Ground Engineering's, who also hold:
Our Values
We use ‘Step into the Blue’ as the framework for our company’s day to day lives. Our model is to increase employee freedom as we grow, rather than limit it, to continue to attract and nourish effective people, so we all have a better chance of long-term continued success.
Three core elements make up ‘Step into the Blue’, derived from Aarsleff’s origins in Denmark in 1947. It is by these values that we recruit and reward the best talent in the industry, what we refer to as ‘the blue in you’.
Life & Health
We know that safety begins and ends with each employee. We understand that speaking up is a vital behaviour and everyone has the obligation to stop work if they believe it is not safe. We believe that safety is not on par with productivity; rather it is an ethic that guides everything our employees do. We empower our employees in a work environment that is conducive to creating the optimal work/ life balance
Trust
We pride ourselves on providing complete visibility into the successes, and sometimes failures, of our business. We share openly and are remarkably transparent in all our dealings. We make uncommon levels of information available to everyone in the company. We build positive, long-term relationships with our clients, partners, suppliers, and colleagues that are built on trust, respect, and collaboration
Responsibility
We know that it is our responsibility to embrace new ways of working and improve on what we do. We take ownership of our ideas and run with them. We give each other feedback, about what we do well, and where we can improve. This is a collective responsibility.
