Helical Piers

Transfer the Weight of Your Structure to Deep Soils

Helical piers are engineered steel shafts with screw-like helical plates designed to stabilize and support foundations. By advancing the piers deep into stable soil or bedrock, Helicon ensures your foundation load is transferred away from weak surface soils and onto solid, load-bearing strata.

What are Helical Piers?

Helical piers (also known as helical piles or screw anchors) are advanced foundation elements designed to secure structures built on unstable soil. Each pier consists of a steel shaft with helical plates welded near the tip, allowing it to be hydraulically “screwed” deep into the ground.

Once advanced to the proper depth and torque, the piers are attached to the foundation with heavy-duty steel brackets. This process creates a secure connection that transfers the weight of the structure onto stable soil or bedrock, providing immediate load-bearing capacity.

How Helicon’s Helical Pier System Works

  • Brackets are mounted at strategic points beneath the foundation
  • Helical piers are rotated deep into stable strata using hydraulic equipment
  • The system locks into place as the piers achieve the required depth and torque resistance
  • Foundations may be gently lifted and permanently secured

Great service. Efficient timeline. Very fair pricing for the big job in my situation (pool on the side of a massive cliff/hill stabilization and lift).
Bryce and his team were on time explained the process and they were very professional.
Completed the repairs as quoted and clean up the work site.
I am very pleased with their work and professionalism.
The assessment and process easy. Price was reasonable compared to others and the workmanship was excellent. They listen to what I had to say based on my experience doing this 15 years ago. I like that they had a five year warranty and hoping everything goes well with the lifting of the cement next to my pool area.
Helicon is definitely the company to call when you have foundation issues. The process was explained in detail and best of all in Layman’s terms. We were shown the progression and what the lift was doing to correct our issues.
Our final walk through was explained from room to room, and they notified us when they were finished and were leaving. I was especially impressed with them cleaning so well after completing everything. Thank you so much Helicon for doing such an amazing job!!!! Douglas, Tony, John, Joshua, and Raul.
THANK YOU
I had a screen porch blow off during Hurricane Milton. One of the rebuilding efforts was to ensure the foundation under the wall that had supported the screen porch's attachment was secure. Helicon came and pumped in an expanding grout under the wall in question. Great job was done with precision measurements, and the area was left clean and neat. Well Done!
Successful job, polite and professional workers, nice job, appreciate cleaning up and fast and efficient project.
I had an excellent experience with Helicon Foundation Repair. From start to finish, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and transparent about every step of the process. David took the time to explain my options clearly and delivered exactly what they promised — on time and within budget. The crew Rey, Brent and Ajay worked efficiently and kept the area clean throughout the project. It’s clear they take pride in their workmanship and customer service. I highly recommend Helicon Foundation Repair to anyone in need of reliable and high-quality foundation services.
They stabilized the driveway which was about to collapse. Professional and courteous service.
Jan and his team did an excellent job at our home yesterday. Our project had challenges and Jan kept up apprised and worked with us to make a decision for each section as needed. That communication led to an end result was as we expected.
My driveway had a sudden hole appear that was about 3' deep. No water appeared to be the cause, it just dropped. Helicon came out stabilized the driveway and leveled it. They have the skilled workers and the right equipment to make this look easy. I am confident that I will not have any more issues with my driveway!
