How Does Underpinning Your Foundation Work?

1: Excavate Around Foundation & Install Helical Piles

After identifying the right approach for your problem, the area must be excavated to gain access to your foundation. The amount of digging varies, but we keep it as minimal as possible. Once your foundation is exposed, our crews can carefully and accurately install helical piles at the predetermined spots.

2: Attach Adapter & Level With Hydraulic Jack

In order to transition the new helical piles to your building, a special adapter that's designed to slide under the existing foundation is attached. A hydraulic jack is used to gently lift the adapter and raise your foundation back to level.

3: Securely Attach Underpinning Support

Once your foundation has been completely restored to level and the problem is resolved, we weld the underpinning adapter to the helical pile and bolt it to your foundation. All that's left is to replace the excavated soil and enjoy long-lasting support for your home or building.
