Footing Replacement

Posted on by Cole Smutny in Footing Replacement, Uncategorized

Destination Decks is the industry leader in footing replacement. Replacement is necessary when the existing footing is heaving, sinking, cracking, or improperly installed. Any of these factors can handicap the integrity of your deck, porch, pergola, or fence foundation!

Heres How it works:

Shore up the structure with load bearing shoring equipment
Excavate and remove the post and footing connection
Certified Installers screw Helical Piers spec’d to the calculated weight load and set post

Why Helical Piers?

Helical piers are primarily used in heavy commercial work, but they’re also well-suited for backyard decks, additions, and foundation repairs.

The reason the existing concrete, diamond pier, or similar pre-cast footing is failing is due to one of two reasons: improper installation, or unequipped soil conditions. For these reasons certified installers and screw piles have a huge advantage over concrete: they allow you to reach the ground level that offers the best stability.

Diamond Pier

The Diamond Pier provides a solid, stable, economical foundation that both captures and preserves the supporting strength and natural functions of the Earth’s soil and, in turn, solidly and simply connects to and protects the permanent structures above

Concrete

Concrete is the most used material for construction in the world and has been in use since the age of the Roman Empire. Concrete is a mixture of aggregate (sand and gravel) combined with water and cement.

Helical Pier

Helical piers are a manufactured steel foundation pin that is driven into the soil to a depth below frostline using hydraulic machinery. They offer simplicity, quality, and sustainability.
