Ivor King – The Piling People

Serving the Construction and Civil Engineering sectors since 1974

Whatever Your Piling Project, We’re Your People

If you’re looking for a trusted piling specialist to deliver the right solution for your construction project, you’ve found the right team.

Celebrating over 50 years in business, Ivor King has grown from the vision of one man into one of the UK’s most respected piling contractors — renowned for technical excellence, integrity, and a people-first approach. Since 1974, we’ve been providing innovative, tailored solutions for complex civil engineering and construction projects nationwide.

Still proudly independent and family-run from our Nuneaton headquarters in the heart of the Midlands, we deliver projects across a wide range of sectors - including highways, rail infrastructure (such as HS2), flood defence, water and waste management, river and canal works, residential, commercial, energy, and education developments.

Specialists in Every Sense

As a multi-disciplined piling contractor, Ivor King offers a complete suite of services designed to meet the unique demands of every project. From steel sheet pile retaining walls, cofferdams, and King Post Walls to steel tubular and bored piling solutions, our integrated approach ensures flexibility, efficiency, and value-engineered results.

With a proven track record and decades of expertise, we turn innovative designs into reality - supporting many of the UK’s leading contractors with safe, sustainable, and cost-effective piling solutions.

Investment in Innovation

A hallmark of Ivor King’s success is our commitment to continuous investment - in people, plant, and technology. Over the past five years, we’ve invested around £17 million in our specialist fleet, equipment, and facilities, ensuring we have the capability and capacity to meet any piling challenge.

We are also recognised industry leaders in Giken Silent Piling technology, including the advanced Supercrush system. This vibration-free method allows sheet piles to be installed into hard or sensitive ground where traditional techniques aren’t viable. Using ‘Coring Theory’, the system combines hydraulic pressing and ground augering simultaneously, enabling silent and precise installation - ideal for urban environments or sites with strict noise and vibration limits.

Building on Experience

For more than five decades, Ivor King has been the piling partner of choice for many of the UK’s leading construction and civil engineering companies. We take pride in our reputation for reliability, safety, and technical excellence - and we look forward to bringing that expertise to your next project.

Ivor King Construction Plant Training

When it comes to construction training, there’s no substitute for experience.

At Ivor King Training, we offer a comprehensive range of CPCS and NPORS accredited courses designed for the construction sector. Our modern, purpose-built facilities provide a friendly and professional environment with everything you need to get qualified and site-ready.

Because on-site training is often impractical, we recreate realistic construction scenarios using a wide range of plant and equipment. This allows you to train and be assessed without the pressures and restrictions of a live construction site.

Our approved Training Assessors guide you through both the theory and practical elements of your chosen course. With over 50 years of industry experience, we deliver bespoke training tailored to your individual needs and level of experience.

As construction professionals, we’re committed to improving safety, quality, and productivity across the industry. Our extensive experience in construction and civil engineering gives you the credentials and confidence to upskill yourself or your workforce.

Ivor King’s clean, spacious, and fully equipped training facilities are purpose-built for plant training, led by highly qualified and experienced instructors. Choose us for a better, more effective training experience.
