Berkel Contractors, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Kansas on September 21, 1959 by Charles J. Berkel for the purpose of performing specialty foundation work throughout the continental United States. Since its founding in 1959, Berkel has grown to become one of the largest piling contractors in the U.S. Our work consists of specialized foundation and construction services such as installing Auger Pressure Grouted (APG) piles and Auger Pressure Grouted Displacement (APGD) piles, Shoring and Earth Retention and Ground Improvement and Stabilization.
From International Olympians to U.S. Presidents, most people at some point in their life have set foot on a Berkel foundation. The company's entrepreneurial spirit and employee-driven passion for exceeding customers' expectations have made Berkel the leader in the deep foundation industry. This continued success is rooted in its people, who strive each and every day to make Berkel the best at what it does.
