What We Install & Stabilize:

From new construction to structural repair, we install helical piles for a variety of residential and commercial needs. Whether you’re building on unstable soil or reinforcing a sinking structure, our engineered pile systems provide deep, reliable support that lasts. Designed for minimal disruption and maximum strength, our solutions are built to perform in Colorado’s toughest ground conditions.

New Helical Pile Installations

From residential additions to expansive commercial projects, we provide expert installation of helical piles to establish strong, dependable foundations in various soil conditions.

Innovative Foundations for New Construction

Incorporating helical piles into new construction projects ensures a solid foundation capable of withstanding various environmental challenges. Our team assesses site-specific conditions to design and install helical pile systems that meet the structural demands of your project, ensuring longevity and stability from the ground up.

Commercial Applications

Our helical pile solutions cater to the unique demands of commercial construction, offering support for structures such as office buildings, warehouses, and infrastructure projects.

Robust Support for Commercial Structures

Helical piles are particularly advantageous in commercial construction, offering a foundation solution that accommodates heavy loads and diverse soil conditions. Applications include supporting multi-story buildings, industrial facilities, and infrastructure projects. Their rapid installation and immediate load-bearing capabilities make them a cost-effective choice for meeting tight construction schedules without compromising on quality or safety.

Foundation and Retaining Wall Stabilization

We utilize helical piles to reinforce and stabilize existing foundations and retaining walls, addressing issues like settling, shifting, or bowing to restore structural integrity.

Reinforcing Existing Structures with Precision

Over time, foundations and retaining walls may experience movement or deterioration due to soil shifts, water intrusion, or other factors. Our helical pile solutions provide targeted stabilization, effectively addressing issues such as settling foundations and bowing retaining walls. By anchoring these structures to stable soil layers, we restore their integrity and extend their service life.

Why Choose Helical Piles?

Understanding Helical Piles

Helical piles, also known as screw piles or helical piers, are deep foundation elements consisting of a central steel shaft with helical plates. They are mechanically advanced into the ground, transferring structural loads to load-bearing soil or rock layers. This method offers a non-invasive, environmentally friendly alternative to traditional foundation systems, making it ideal for both new constructions and remedial applications.

Improper Wall Construction

✘ Many retaining wall issues stem from water buildup behind the wall.
✘ We install proper gravel backfill, weep holes, or drainage pipes to relieve pressure.
✘ This protects both the wall and the slope behind it.

Load Stress or Added Weight

✘ Retaining walls are often asked to support more than they were designed for.
✘ Added weight from new landscaping, vehicles, or structures can overburden the system.
✘ We assess and reinforce your wall to match its real load demand.

Poor Drainage Behind the Wall

✘ If water can’t escape, it builds pressure behind the wall (hydrostatic pressure).
✘ This pressure can push the wall forward or cause cracks and shifting.
✘ Drainage issues are the #1 hidden cause of wall failure.

Soil Movement & Erosion

✘ Expansive soils that swell when wet can move the wall over time.
✘ Erosion below or behind the wall weakens its base support.
✘ This causes walls to tilt, lean, or collapse during heavy storms.

Efficiency:

Quick installation with minimal site disturbance and immediate load-bearing capacity.

Reliability:

Engineered for long-term performance, providing stable and secure foundations.

Versatility:

Suitable for a variety of soil types and project requirements.

Retaining Wall Repair: Your Top Questions Answeredwith an Expert

Helical piles are deep foundation elements made of steel shafts with helical (screw-like) plates. They’re mechanically “screwed” into the ground until they reach stable soil or bedrock, where they can support or lift a structure. Their design allows for fast, precise installation with minimal soil disruption.

Most residential installations can be completed in about a week. Helical piles require no curing time like concrete, which means they’re load-bearing immediately after installation—saving time on construction schedules.
