During the continuous special inspection of a helical pile installation, our team and the assigned special inspector must record specific field data to verify that the as-built foundation aligns with the engineered design and IBC 2026 requirements.
We record the following specific data points during installation:
This real-time data collection allows for immediate adjustments if a pile deviates from alignment or if torque trends vary from expectations. These records are compiled into a final as-built package that serves as the permanent record for your property.

Underpinning historical buildings in Colorado, particularly in areas like Littleton and the Denver metro region, involves navigating complex geological and structural hurdles. Because historical structures often feature delicate masonry, original stonework, and fragile interior finishes, the method of stabilization must…
Yes, helical piers are an excellent solution for supporting historical masonry foundations. Because historical masonry structures are often heavy and sensitive to movement, they require a support system that provides unwavering stability without causing further damage during installation. We specialize…
To repair a settling foundation in an old house without damaging the structure, we use a meticulous, engineered process called professional steel piering. This method is particularly effective for historical renovations because it provides a permanent solution with minimal vibration…
Choosing between polyurethane foam and steel piers depends on whether you are addressing a cosmetic surface issue or a structural foundation problem. We offer both solutions and can help you determine the best fit for your specific site conditions in…
While polyurethane foam is an effective solution for specific types of concrete issues, it cannot replace underpinning for a settling home that requires structural support. Understanding the distinction between Polyurethane Foam Lifting and structural foundation repair is critical for long-term…
