FIRST BASE provides high-quality ground screws as a sustainable alternative to concrete foundations. For over 10 years, we've supported professionals in tiny house construction and other timber frame building projects. Our in-house team of geotechnical engineers calculates the load-bearing capacity of your ground screws based on ground reports and soil tests — ensuring safe, proven foundations you can rely on.
FIRST BASE Ground Screws has its base in Uden, the Netherlands with European locations for specific markets.

How does it work?
FIRST BASE Ground Screws can be easily installed using a manual installation tool, or an electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic machine. The conical shape of the screws compresses the surrounding soil, increasing the load-bearing capacity. Whether you’re building on clay, peat, loam, or sand, FIRST BASE guarantees a solid foundation.
