Before breaking ground on the home addition, the soil conditions were evaluated and found to be less than ideal for supporting new construction. Traditional footings weren’t a reliable option due to the risk of future settlement. To ensure a strong and stable foundation from the start, the decision was made to install helical piers. With the helical piers installed deep into stable, load-bearing strata, the addition now has a rock-solid foundation ready for vertical construction. These pre-construction piers provide long-term support, prevent future settling, and offer peace of mind that the new structure will remain level and secure for decades to come. Built on trust—starting from the ground up!
