Ground Anchoring
Discover Customized Anchoring Solutions
If the foundation in your residential or commercial land has shifted, contact the experts at A+ Waterproofing & Foundation Repair. Your foundation may be in serious need of helical piles for ground anchoring.
Discover Cost-Effective Support Solutions
Helical piles have a significant load-bearing capacity and are used in both compression (downward) and tension (uplift) applications. When a helical pier is installed into suitable soil, the load of the structure is transferred to the bearing plates welded to the shaft.

Why Do Soil Conditions Matter When Repairing a Foundation?
A foundation depends on the soil beneath it for support. When that soil is weak, shifting, poorly compacted, or unable to carry the necessary load, the structure above it can begin experiencing settlement and movement.
Helical piles provide a way to transfer structural loads deeper into the ground. The steel shafts contain helical plates that allow them to be mechanically advanced until they reach suitable supporting soil. They can then provide immediate load-bearing capacity without waiting for concrete to cure.
This makes helical piles useful for certain existing foundation repairs as well as structural applications involving new construction, porches, decks, retaining walls, and other improvements requiring dependable support.
The appropriate foundation solution depends on the structure, soil conditions, access, and type of movement occurring. We evaluate these factors before determining whether helical piles or another stabilization method is appropriate.
By addressing the relationship between the foundation and the supporting soil, we can develop a repair focused on the cause of settlement rather than only the symptoms visible above ground.
