Driven through washed-out sand until it hits something that resists, then verified by gauge pressure.
Byron settlement usually starts with water moving fine material out from under a footing. What is left directly beneath the foundation is disturbed and unreliable, so any pier has to reach past it to something intact.
A push pier does that by driving until it refuses. It is pushed hydraulically against the weight of the house, through the loose material, until it meets a stratum dense enough to stop it. The gauge pressure at that point is the verification.
Whether the method suits a given Byron house comes down to weight. Brick veneer homes and heavier masonry construction supply enough reaction force to drive the pier properly. Lighter frame homes and porches do not, and for those we would recommend a screwed pier instead.
Our push pier installation scope is the same on every Byron home, whatever the Peach County ground turns out to be doing.
