Helical Pier Installation for Milledgeville homeowners
Underpinning an antebellum house calls for a method that puts as little demand on the original structure as possible. That is the strongest argument for helical piers on a historic property.
A driven pier uses the building's own weight as the reaction force while it advances, which means loading original masonry in a way it was never designed for. A helical pier is turned into the ground by its own torque motor and asks nothing of the structure while it goes in.
The rest of the work is done to match. Excavations at each bearing point are hand dug where they approach original footings, brackets are set carefully, and any lift is taken gradually over days so plaster and trim survive it. Torque values are recorded for every pier as documentation.
Our helical pier installation scope is the same on every Milledgeville home, whatever the Baldwin County ground turns out to be doing.
