Helical Pile Installation IN Lakewood
A Smarter Start to Your Foundation
Helical piles are a modern foundation system used in new construction to provide deep, stable, and immediate structural support—even in weak or unpredictable soils. Whether you’re building a new home, addition, deck, or light commercial structure, helical piles offer a faster, cleaner, and more reliable way to start.
What Are Helical Piles?
Foundation support designed to perform in any soil.
Helical piles (also called screw piles) are long steel shafts with helical blades that are literally screwed into the ground like a corkscrew. As they turn, they anchor into stable soil layers deep underground, giving your structure a solid base that resists settling, shifting, or failure.
Why Use Helical Piles for New Construction?
Faster builds. Stronger support. Lower long-term costs.
- Minimal Excavation Required: No need for large-scale digging or concrete forms. Just drive the pile, and you’re done.
- Immediate Load-Bearing Capacity: You can build on them the same day they’re installed—no waiting for concrete to cure.
- Work in Almost Any Soil: Ideal for sandy, marshy, or expansive clay soils where traditional footings may fail.
- Great for Tight or Hard-to-Access Sites: Equipment is compact and causes less disruption to the surrounding area.
- Less Concrete = Lower Environmental Impact: Save on materials and reduce your job site’s carbon footprint.
How Helical Piles Are Installed for New Builds
A clean and fast 4-step process:
- Site Assessment & Load Engineering: We evaluate your soil conditions and building loads to determine the right pile specs and spacing.
- Screw Piles Into the Ground: Using compact hydraulic equipment, piles are driven to the right depth and torque—no hammering or vibration.
- Top Brackets Are Installed: Custom caps or brackets connect the piles to your foundation footings, framing, or slab.
- You Build on It the Same Day: There’s no wait. Once piles are installed, framing or slab work can begin immediately.

Ideal Applications for New Helical Pile Installs
Helical piles are a great choice for new construction where traditional footings might fail or be impractical:
- Additions and second stories
- Porches, decks, and sunrooms
- Garages and carports
- Boardwalks, fences, and signs
- Modular buildings and trailers
- Solar panel and utility pole foundations
How New Helical Piles Compare to Traditional Footings
The longer a wall is allowed to shift or bow, the higher the repair cost.
Feature | Helical Piles | Concrete Footings |
