Our residential helical piers offer a gentle yet powerful solution for stabilizing lighter structures without the intense pressure required by other methods.
We find helical piers for decks, sunrooms, and porches to be the ideal choice because they don’t rely on the structure's weight for counter-pressure during installation. Lighter additions often lack the mass needed for push piers, so the hydraulic torque of a helical system provides the necessary force independently. This versatility allows us to stabilize everything from a small back stoop to a large garage slab foundation effectively.
These systems reach competent, load-bearing soils at depths of 5–20 feet below the surface. Our helical pier approach bypasses shifting, unstable topsoil layers that cause sinking in the first place. The large helix on the drive shaft anchors firmly into solid ground, creating a stable platform for your home's extensions.
The installation process uses a specialized hydraulic drive head attached to an excavator, which screws the pier into the ground rather than hammering it. This rotary installation method significantly reduces vibration and disturbance to the surrounding soil and your home. You get a secure repair without the stress of heavy impact machinery shaking your property.
Once the helical piers reach the required depth and torque, we attach a foundation bracket that immediately supports the existing footer or slab edge. This process pre-loads the pier, meaning it starts bearing weight the moment we finish the installation. The transfer of load stops the sinking instantly and helps prevent future movement.
We offer a 25-Year Steel Warranty from the manufacturer on the steel products we install. This warranty gives you peace of mind knowing that the materials supporting your home are built to last for decades.

Helical piers stabilize a structure by transferring its weight into deeper, load-bearing soil using a screw-style steel shaft. Installers drive the piers hydraulically until they reach stable ground, then attach them to the foundation or slab to help prevent further settling.
Most helical pier installation projects take one to two days, depending on soil conditions and the number of piers needed. Residential projects like decks, porches, and garage slabs often finish faster than full foundation stabilization jobs.
Foundation settling becomes urgent when cracks widen, floors slope, or doors and windows stop operating correctly. Addressing these issues early with helical piers helps prevent structural damage and more costly repairs later.
Soil movement from moisture changes, poor drainage, and clay-heavy soils commonly causes foundation settling in this region. Lighter structures, such as decks and porches, often show signs first, making helical piers a practical stabilization option.
Helical piers work best for lighter structures such as decks, sunrooms, porches, garage slabs, and residential additions. These systems provide strong support without relying on the weight of the structure itself for installation.
