Foundation Underpinning

Foundation underpinning is the process of strengthening and stabilizing the foundation of an existing building or structure. This technique is essential when the original foundation is no longer capable of supporting the building due to soil instability, changes in land use, or after structural damage. Underpinning extends the foundation depth or width so it rests on more supportive soil, thereby distributing the building load more effectively. 

Our helical piers offer a superior approach to traditional underpinning methods. They are screwed into the ground with minimal disturbance, making them an ideal choice for projects where maintaining the integrity of the surrounding area is crucial. The benefits of using Precision Piers helical piers for underpinning include: 

• Speed and Efficiency: Our helical piers are quick to install, reducing project timelines.
• Minimal Disruption: Installation causes less noise and vibration, preserving the surrounding environment and existing structures.
• Immediate Load Transfer: Once installed, they offer immediate support, allowing construction activities to continue without delay.
• Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of soil types and construction projects.

Our helical piers can be used in a variety of underpinning projects, including:

• Residential Homes: Perfect for homes experiencing foundation settlement or shifting.
• Historic Buildings: Ideal for delicately underpinning structures where preservation is key.
• Commercial Buildings: Offers robust support for larger structures like office buildings and retail centers.
• Industrial Facilities: Provides the needed stability for heavy machinery and high-load areas.
