Helical Pier Systems in Connecticut and Westchester County, NY
Unstable foundations can result in cracked or bowing walls. When the cause of an unstable foundation is due to unsettled or shifting soil, helical piers are the answer. Foundation Supportworks (FSI) helical piers transfer the weight of your home to more stable soil. They can be used in existing homes or in new construction projects.
The FSI Helical Pier System is often more cost-effective than over-sized engineered concrete footings or removing and replacing the unstable soils. By using the Helical Pier System, you are taking a proactive approach to reducing further foundation settlement. This system can be installed year-round and in just a few days, without the use of heavy equipment. For lighter structures, helical piers can be used as an alternative to push piers.
So how does it work? Helical Piers are systematically screwed into the earth to specific depths or capacities. The tops of preconstruction piers are cast into the column pads or grade beams, effectively transferring the weight of your home to deeper stable soils. Retrofit helical piers are sometimes used instead of push piers.
