Cantsink helical piles are an effective, sturdy way to protect foundations from sinking during extreme weather and hurricanes. When installed properly, they provide a steady foundation that can withstand the increased moisture and weight of the rain-soaked ground.
Here's a closer look at how Cantsink helical piles work and why they're such an important part of protecting your foundation:
How Cantsink Helical Piles Work
Cantsink helical piles are long, metal rods that are screwed into the ground. They're installed at a depth that's determined by the soil conditions and the expected load on the foundation. The number of needed depends on the size and weight of the structure being supported, which can be easily established by one of our foundation specialists during a free evaluation.
Once in place, they're connected to brackets that are attached to the foundation. These brackets distribute the load evenly across the piles and help to keep the foundation level. As the ground around the foundation settles, the helical piles rotate slightly, which allows them to bear more weight without sinking further into the ground.
