Foundation Repair Solutions
Helical Piers
We offer helical piers in square and round shafts for our customers. Square shaft piers correct tension (uplift) situations, and round shaft piers repair compression (downward) situations.
Helical piers have significant load-bearing capability and can repair compression (upward) and tension (downward) applications.
Push Piers
We hydraulically drive the steel piers through the patented steel bracket to a load-bearing stratum, and the entire structure works as the reaction. The PPB-350 pier system can close cracks in masonry and restore settlement even on the heaviest structures. The ECP PPB-350 provides the strongest support for your foundation.
