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!

It’s a permanent solution that not only stops further damage but also helps straighten walls over time.
