Helical Pier Installation for Griffin homeowners

Spalding County clay is heavy, expansive, and holds water against a foundation for a week at a time. Anything bearing in the upper few feet of it is riding a seasonal cycle that eventually stops returning to where it started.

Helical piers put the bearing below that zone. The pier advances until the torque required tells us it has reached material that carries the load regardless of the season, and that reading is recorded at each location.

Depth here can be significant, since the active layer in heavy clay runs deeper than it does in sandy soil. Advancing to a torque value is what makes sure each pier is genuinely below it.

The scope is fixed before we start on a Griffin home, so nothing gets added once the crew is underneath.

Questions, Answered

Helical Pier Installation in Griffin, GA - questions

Below the layer that swells and shrinks seasonally, which runs deeper here than in sandy soil. The torque reading confirms when we have passed it.
It takes more torque to advance, which is exactly what the motor is for. The reading rises as the pier reaches competent material.
Once the bearing is below the active layer, the structure stops following the clay. The clay carries on moving and the house no longer does.
It reduces how hard the clay swells against everything else, including basement walls. We usually recommend both on this soil.
Those are different problems. Piers carry vertical load, wall bracing resists lateral pressure. Some Griffin homes need both.
Two to five days depending on pier count and how much lift is being recovered.
No. We take elevations, assess the loads, and give a written fixed price.
