Helical Piers

The Foundation Support Solution

Get proper stability and support for your foundation.

Helical Piers Installation Experts

Helical piers are an innovative foundation repair solution designed to provide stability and support to structures built on unstable soil. They consist of steel shafts with helical plates drilled deep into the ground until they reach load-bearing soil. This method effectively transfers the structure’s weight to stable soil, preventing further settling or sinking.

Visible Foundation Settling or Shifting

If you see signs of your foundation settling, such as gaps between the foundation and the ground or visible displacement, it’s crucial to address the issue. Helical piers can provide the necessary support to stabilize your foundation and prevent further damage.

Sticky Doors and Windows

If doors and windows are increasingly difficult to open or close, it may be due to a shifting foundation. Misalignment caused by foundation movement can lead to gaps and hinder the proper function of these openings.

Uneven or Sloping Floors

Floors that are not level or have noticeable slopes can signal foundation issues. This unevenness often results from settling or shifting foundations, and installing helical piers can help restore your floors to a level position.

Cracks in Walls or Ceilings

If you notice cracks appearing in your walls or ceilings, especially those that widen over time, it may indicate foundation movement. These cracks can compromise your home’s structural integrity, suggesting that your foundation needs stabilization.

Types of Helical Piers

New Construction Helical Piers

New construction helical piers play a vital role in building stable foundations for various structures, including new homes, deck supports, and home extensions. These piers are drilled into the ground until the appropriate torque is reached, providing reliable support in areas where soil conditions are inadequate.

Once installed, a top plate is placed over the helical piers, ensuring a solid and durable foundation for the structure above.

Helical Pier With Underpinning Bracket

The helical pier system operates on the principle of embedding a screw-like anchor (the helical pier) into stable subsoil until the applied torque signals that the required load capacity has been reached. Once this is accomplished, an adjustable bracket is secured to the base of the foundation, linking the helical pier to the structure.

This process effectively transfers the weight of the residential or commercial building to the helical pier, preventing any further movement of the structure.

Helical Slab Piers

Helical slab piers are a specialized type of foundation support system designed to address issues with settling or unstable soil beneath concrete slabs. These piers are particularly useful for structures built on expansive or weak soil that cannot provide the necessary stability to support the building’s weight.

These can be used for various applications, including residential homes, commercial buildings, and even outdoor structures like patios and decks.

Auger/ Drill Piers

Auger or drill piers are an advanced foundation support system designed to provide stability and strength to structures built on challenging soil conditions. This method involves using a specialized auger or drill to create deep, cylindrical holes in the ground, which are then filled with concrete or reinforced with steel to form a solid foundation.

These can be used for a variety of structures, including residential homes, commercial buildings, and even bridges. This versatility makes them an ideal choice for both new construction and foundation repair projects.
