Pre-Construction
Foundation Repair

Building a new home or pool is one of the biggest investments you’ll make. But if the soil beneath your project isn’t stable, it can lead to serious foundation problems down the road. Cracks, uneven settling, and structural issues are far more costly to fix after construction than they are to prevent up front.

Helicon’s pre-construction foundation repair services identify and stabilize weak soils before the first block is laid. By addressing problems early, you can build with confidence knowing your home or pool is supported by a strong, stable foundation.

Why Pre-Construction Foundation Repair Matters

Florida’s soils are unpredictable — sandy, clay-heavy, and sometimes prone to voids or sinkhole activity. A proper soil test and stabilization plan ensure your new build won’t suffer from settlement or foundation failure. Pre-construction services:

  • Prevent costly repairs after construction
  • Ensure your foundation is built on stable ground
  • Protect the long-term value of your investment
  • Provide peace of mind before you break ground

We highly recommend them and will always be grateful for the amazing experience with Helicon!!!
We are a Water Managment Special District in the state of Florida and when we started looking into repairing our outflow Dam that is responsible for 16 lakes, we took multiple bids and ended up choosing Helicon. It was a great choice! They were able to walk us through the steps of how they would be able to properly seal and help strengthen this outflow Dam that is essential to our community. Using their specialty hydrophilic foam, they were able to inject into our Dam sealing cracks and empty spaces that had eroded over time as well as pushing out water that had seeped in. they were able to accomplish this large undertaking within a day and they were able to instill a confidence in the structure that had not been there for decades. Not only would I recommend them to other government entities, companies, or individuals we are looking to work with them again in the future on the possibility of some different types of projects.
I contacted Helicon when I notice my garage floor was sinking next to the house. They responded by looking at my floor and said that chemical grout would lift and stabilize it. The crew that came to do the repair did a fantastic job!!! I would recommend this company!!!
The sales representative, Douglas, reviewed my home carefully, asked questions then prepared a drawing and contract. He was detailed in information and provided easily understood answers to questions. There was no pressure.

Follow up with associates was made in a timely manner by text, voice mail, and email. Tony easily answered my questions.

The techs arrived on time as scheduled. Professional, polite, focused on their tasks, respectful of neighbors and my home, treated the installation as if it were in their home.

Highly recommend Helicon!
There's no words to express how grateful I am with Helicon service. They did an awesome job with my house. My house had foundation issues and Helicon fixed the problem. Thank you Bradford, Rhonda, the head manager, the Forman and his partner. The service and treatment was exceptional. I would recommend them to any one who has foundation issues. God bless you all.
Elias, Shemy, Alfonzo did a great job lifting the corner of our house. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
Clearwater Community Church had a foundation issue stemming from multiple building modifications that included foundations being poured at different times and joined. In one of our spaces there was a crack the extended the length of the room with an elevation difference at the worse place approaching an inch in vertical displacement. We requested input and quotes from several contractors, selecting Helicon based on their insight to our problem, their expertise, their proposed solution and price. In the space with the crack and damaged foundation using their expanding foam injection process, they were able to fill the voids under the foundation, stabilize the soils beneath and raise the dropped portion of the foundation to be level across the crack. (See photo.) In an adjacent space that showed on elevation differences across the surface of the foundation they used the same expanding foam process to stabilize the underlying soils to prevent potential future issues. We have since laid new flooring and are satisfied with the work and Helicon's five-year warranty on the work.
Reliable, professional and easy to work with.
Everyone I dealt with were very helpful. I feel confident Helicon and their material used are top notch used in fixing sinkholes. I had LRE previously but their material was inferior. I had to get Helicon to redo LRE’s work!

Common Pre-Construction Repair Methods for Homes & Pools

Helicon uses proven, engineer-recommended methods to stabilize soils and prepare properties for safe, lasting construction.

Micropile Structural Support

Underpinning

Deep steel piers are installed into stable soil or bedrock before the slab or pool deck is poured. Underpinning transfers the weight of your structure away from weak soils and onto solid strata, preventing future settlement. Helical, push, and drilled piers may be used depending on site conditions.

soil stabilization for foundation repairs

Compaction Grouting

A dense grout mixture is injected underground to fill voids, densify loose soils, and seal limestone layers. This strengthens the ground beneath your property and prevents sinkhole activity that could otherwise damage a new home or pool.

Micropile Structural Support

Permeation Grouting

Low-viscosity grout is injected into sandy or gravelly soils, filling pores and fractures to create a solid mass that resists water flow. This method improves soil strength and reduces the risk of erosion or shifting around foundations and pools.
