Frequently asked questions

What are helical piers?
Helical piers are steel shafts with screw-like blades designed to anchor deep into stable, load-bearing soil. They transfer the weight of your home away from weak or shifting ground, providing permanent stabilization.
If your home shows signs of foundation settlement—such as wall cracks, sloping floors, or sticking doors and windows—helical piers may be the best solution. They’re also commonly used in new construction where soil conditions are poor.
Helical piers are advanced into the soil using torque, making them ideal for lighter structures or areas where soil resistance is needed for stability. Push piers rely on the weight of the structure to drive into the soil, which isn’t always effective in Gulf Coast conditions.
  • Immediate load-bearing capacity
  • Can often lift and re-level settled foundations
  • Minimal disturbance to landscaping
  • Suitable for both repairs and new construction
  • Long-lasting, engineered solution
Most residential projects can be completed within a few days. The timeline depends on soil conditions, the number of piers needed, and the size of the structure.

Yes. MDH’s StrongHold® Helical Piers are made with durable, recyclable steel. They are a sustainable alternative to concrete replacement and require minimal excavation, reducing environmental impact.

Absolutely. Helical piers are engineered for a variety of soil types—including sandy and clay-rich soils common to the Gulf Coast—making them especially effective for beach houses and waterfront properties.

No heavy excavation equipment is needed. Our team uses compact installation equipment, keeping disruption to a minimum. Once installed, we restore the work area as much as possible.
When installed correctly, helical piers can last for decades. At MDH, our piers are protected against corrosion and come with warranties for long-term performance.
The cost depends on how many piers are needed and the depth required to reach stable soil. We provide a free inspection and offer financing options to make the process affordable.
