Helical Pier Installation

Providing extra support for your foundation.

Helical piers offer a stable, long-term solution to foundation problems caused by soil instability or other geotechnical issues. When you choose Foundation Doctor for your helical pier installation, you're not just getting a service; you're investing in the longevity of your home. Our highly skilled team employs cutting-edge techniques and machinery to install helical piers, effectively transferring your home's structural load to stable soil layers and safeguarding your foundation against future instability.

  • Preparation: The initial phase involves digging up the soil surrounding your building to uncover the designated spots for each pier. In cases where they will be placed indoors or close to a concrete sidewalk or driveway outside, a section of the slab will be removed to accommodate their installation.
  • Shaft Installation: The helical piers are screwed into the soil until they encounter a layer of compacted earth, guaranteeing that the weight of your structure will be evenly distributed into the stable ground.
  • Bracket Attachment: Once driven into the ground, steel brackets are utilized to anchor the helical piers securely to the foundation.
  • Secure the Base: After securely installing the brackets to the foundation, hydraulic lifting is employed to support the footer properly and prevent further sinking.

Mold Inspection and Removal

Maintain the health of your home.

When left unchecked, mold in your crawl space can lead to structural damage and pose serious health risks, including allergic reactions, respiratory problems, and other illnesses. At Foundation Doctor, we provide thorough mold inspection services, identifying not only the presence of mold but also the source of the moisture that's allowing it to thrive.

After the problem is identified, we offer comprehensive mold removal services. Our team of professionals employs state-of-the-art equipment and follows industry-leading protocols to ensure your home is mold-free. We don't just remove the mold; we address the source of the problem to prevent future growth.

Our mold services include:

  • Mold Inspection: We use advanced technology to locate the mold and any signs of damage it has caused.
  • Mold Containment: We ensure that the mold is isolated in the contaminated area and does not spread.
  • Air Filtration: We use a commercial-grade HEPA air scrubber in crawlspace areas as necessary. This helps in effectively eliminating airborne fungus and ensures proper circulation of air.
  • Mold Removal: We utilize commercial mold remover to treat and eliminate microbial/fungal growth, performing additional hand scrubbing when needed.
  • Mold Prevention: Once the mold and fungus have been dealt with, the Foundation Doctor will apply a commercially available mold prevention solution that is botanically based and environmentally friendly. This solution effectively eliminates both roots and mold spores.
  • Restoration: Foundation Doctor will restore your crawlspace to its original condition, carrying out any required major and/or minor repairs after your mold remediation service.

"Garrett was courteous, professional, and frequently updated me on the project status, such as when the crew would be on site, what work still needed finishing, and any unforeseen delays or issues. He and his crew left my crawlspace clean and tidy, and cleaned up after themselves. Would highly recommend them."
