Helical and New Construction Piers

Helical piers are used for stabilizing light weight structures. These structures could be sunrooms or porches.

The helical new construction piers can assure you no settlement could occur and you could have a solid base to build upon.

Don't Overlook the Signs

Many people are unsure whether their foundation needs repair. The following are some signs you should look for:

  • Windows and doors that stick or are hard to open
  • Gaps in window and door frames
  • Interior plaster walls cracking
  • Nail pops in ceilings and walls
  • Leaning walls
  • Window and door trim developing spaces
  • Uneven floors
  • Tilting chimney
  • Sinking foundation
  • Cracks in foundation or basement walls

Following installation of the Grip-Tite Foundation Helical Pier System, you can expect cracks in mortar joints to close, windows opening and closing with less binding and doors closing easier.
