Foundation Repair System: How important is the location of the pier?
The location of the pier is important because if the pier is not installed in the right place, the house needs will not be met, and the repair will not perform as expected, causing more future structural damage.
Foundation Repair System: Is Heavy Machinery Necessary?
Heavy machinery, such as an excavator, is necessary to dig holes to make the job faster and more efficient.
Foundation Repair System: teamwork is Key

Foundation Repair System: Helical Piers
Helical piers are perfect for houses since they are lighter and building and perfect for non-rocky soils.
Foundation Repair System: Distance is Key
The distance is important because depending on how close each pier is to the other, the stronger the foundation support is.
How Deep is Enough?
Normally our foundation repair crew drills each pier from 7 to 10 feet until the pier gets stable and can provide full foundation support.
Can We Use Helical Piers For Every Occasion?
No, if the structure is very heavy, such as a building, or if the soil has a lot of rock it is better to use push piers to provide better and more long-lasting foundation support.
