Interior Screw Pile Services
Interior Screw Pile & Underpinning Services Regina
Interior screw piles (also known as helical piles) are a modern, highly effective foundation repair method used inside a home. They are long, steel shafts with helical (screw-like) blades that are mechanically driven into the ground beneath the home. Once installed, they provide solid, deep support to correct sinking or uneven floors and stabilize the structure.
Interior Screw Piles are installed inside the home, usually through the basement or crawlspace floor. They target areas where interior posts, beams, or footings have settled and the floors are sagging. Small access holes are cut in the floor slab inside the basement or crawlspace. The piles are driven into stable soil with specialized equipment and brackets are attached to the interior beams or footings.
The process of installing interior screw piles begins with a thorough assessment of the home to identify areas of settlement and determine the best locations for support. Once the piles and heavy-duty brackets are in place, hydraulic jacks are carefully used to lift and level the floors where possible, after which the screw piles provide permanent, long-term stability.
Factors That Need To Be Counted For Interior Screw Pile Services
When installing interior screw piles, several important factors need to be evaluated to ensure proper support and long-term stability. The number of piles required, their positioning inside the home, shaft diameters, and soil conditions beneath the structure all play a role in a successful installation. Additional considerations include:
● The design life of the building must be factored in before selecting this repair method.● Environmental conditions inside the home, such as moisture levels that may contribute to corrosion, should be evaluated.● Geotechnical concerns beneath the interior slab or crawlspace footing need to be addressed.● Most importantly, the load of the building and distribution of interior weight must be considered when planning pile placement.
Benefits Of Interior Screw Piling
Interior screw piles provide a strong, cost-effective solution for levelling homes with sinking or uneven interior floors. Compared to traditional concrete underpinning or large-scale excavation, they offer several unique advantages:
● Installing screw piles instead of concrete piles will save you time and money.● No curing time is required.● Minimal environmental and structural impact, since work is contained to small interior access points.● Interior screw piles do not require large interior excavation, helping preserve the existing slab and reduce disruption inside the home.● Smaller, specialized equipment can be used indoors, avoiding costly damage to finished areas or large-scale demolition.● They can be installed any time of the year, regardless of weather or soil conditions.
