How do helical piers help with foundation issues? Let’s investigate:
WHY DOES MY FOUNDATION REQUIRE HELICAL PIERS?
Helical piers are used to stabilize foundations that have begun to settle because of insufficient help from the dirt beneath them. Foundation settlement can manifest in signs like:
- Sticking doors and windows
- Uneven floors
- Tilting chimneys
- Cracking walls
- Floor and wall gaps
These issues can either be early indications of foundation failure or the underlying manifestations of structural damage. Nevertheless, they need to be seen to immediately to keep the damage from spreading. Helical piers are used to support your foundation in any areas where it may already be lacking support.
HOW WILL HELICAL DOCKS REPAIR MY FOUNDATION?
Helical piers are like a vast screw that is threaded into the soil under your foundation. These piers are screwed into the ground until they achieve an appropriate depth and provide foundational support by discovering load-bearing soil that will lift your foundation back to its previous location and keep it supported. Helical piers are broadly used as a part of residential or commercial applications for everything from repairing your home's foundation or tilting chimney to supporting civil construction ventures.
