With the type of soil conditions found in and around the City of Champions, building a lasting and stable foundation for you project can be a challenge.
Choosing helical piles to support the foundation of your project can be the answer.
Engineered pilings are constructed with a hollow steel tube affixed with one or several helixes.
These helical plates allow for a more effective bearing load capacity when soil can be problematic.
During metal post installation, torque is monitored.
If the installation torque is unsatisfactory then extensions can be added to go deeper and provide greater support.
We truly believe in providing strong, stable screw pile foundations that will stand the test of time.
We are diligent about conforming to architectural standards, building codes.
This passion for providing quality craftsmanship, ensures the safety and longevity of all building projects supported by our piling foundations.
Access through fence gates into your yard is not an issue with our small skid steer.
Equipped with a slow speed high torque drive head, our 36″ wide install machine can drive 2-7/8″ and 3-1/2″ piles in almost any location.
Installation is fast and easy with no excavating or backfill with no soil to be hauled away after installation.
Whether you need screw piles for decks or any other residential application, each piling can be installed with minimal impact to the ground or to the surrounding area.
Trust the best, our install crews at The Edmonton Screw Pile Pros use only the right install equipment and drive heads.
This means when our people install your piles, the torque is properly applied and monitored.
Advantages Fast Installation.
With little preparation or cleanup required Immediate load bearing capacity.
Unlike concrete footings, the screw-anchors can be loaded immediately after installation Minimal ground disturbance.
As the posts do not displace the soil during installation.
The ground in which they are put into is not disturbed leaving the soil more stable Load Capacity Verification.
During installation the torque is monitored and recorded.
This indicates the soil condition in which the pilings are installed and indicated how much weight the screw pile can hold Increase Load Capacity.
In the field if the required installation torque is not met, helical plates or piling extensions can be added.
Going deeper with extensions or adding helical plates can increase the torque to meet the engineering specifications No Frost Heaving.
As all metal posts are installed well below the frost line with the load bearing helical plate typically at the deepest point.
Screw piles are resistant to frost heaving No excavating.
Because the posts simply twist into the soil there is no requirement to dig or drill any holes.
This saves time and money There can be many reasons why your home’s foundation may need to be strengthened, including: * The foundation has shifted or moved due to earthquakes.
* Soil has eroded beneath or around the foundation, causing cracks, sloping or sinking.
Leveling a residential slab foundation usually means underpinning it with piers.
There are several types of piers.
Here is an overview of foundation repair methods.
Home repair is often expensive and inconvenient, and it’s possible that one of the most problematic is home foundation repair.
If you are faced with this problem you mustn’t ignore it.
You must make the repair as soon as possible with the help of a residential structural engineer.
The foundation of your home would be considered as the most crucial part of the entire house.
It carries the responsibility of shouldering the entire load weight of your home.
Having a problem with the foundation can cause damage to your home, lessen its value and puts your safety at risk.
Water leaks in your basement or crawl space may be signs of serious structural problems.
Being able to read these wall leaks is an art and should only be preformed by a foundation repair expert or foundation engineer.
Knowledge of what your problem really is and what options that you have will not only save you money but also wasted efforts.
