Foundation Repair

Helical Piers

Our patented steel helical piering systems are installed to depths well below the problem soils causing the foundation triple blade helical piersettlement. In fact, the Magnum piers will reach all the way to bedrock or adequate load bearing stratum before installation is complete.

These rigid columns of high strength steel are attached to your foundation's footing using heavy duty steel foundation brackets to create the new permanent support for the structure.

The steel piers are hydralicaly driven to a specified engineered torque, to stable bedrock or load bearing strata and the weight of the structure transferred to the steel brackets attached to the foundation. This attachment is below the ground so nothing is exposed once the process is completed.

We use helical piers many times on very light structures, porchs, columns to support lighter loads in our area.

Each pier is load tested with a safety factor calculated to ensure a reliable permanent solution. The installation is fast and can be installed in limited areas. The structure is carefully restored back by lifting in unison on each pier or sections of piers.

Our Magnum helical piers offer many advantages:

  • Variety of products to fit need (light, standard, and heavy duty designs
  • Patented dual-cutting edge blades for rocky soils
  • Fast Installation
  • Can be installed in any weather even through deep frost

These piers are perfect for the new construction foundation to prevent future issues with foundation problems.

You will also have the peace of mind knowing your foundation stabilization is also protected by a realistic transferrable warranty.
