Our Commitment to Superior Deck Construction: The Advantages of Helical Piles
At Green Side Up Contracting, our mission is to protect your investment by providing the best products and employing top-notch construction principles. To ensure your deck stands the test of time, we continuously seek out innovative solutions. One of the most crucial aspects of deck construction is the foundation, and we are excited to share that Green Side Up Contracting has moved away from traditional concrete footings in favour of helical piles.
Why Helical Piles?
Approximately five years ago, we partnered with GoliathTech to integrate helical piles into our deck construction process, and the results have been outstanding. Helical piles offer numerous benefits over conventional methods, making them the superior choice for your deck’s foundation.
Benefits of Helical Piles:
- Deeper Foundation: Helical piles extend at least 7 feet below grade, significantly deeper than the 4 feet typical of concrete footings. This ensures greater stability and longevity.
- Minimal Landscape Impact: The installation of helical piles causes minimal disruption to your landscape, preserving the beauty of your outdoor space.
- Immediate Use: Unlike concrete footings, which require curing time, helical piles are ready for use immediately after installation, eliminating delays.
- Resilience to Ground Movement: Helical piles remain unaffected by ground movement due to frost or expansive soil, ensuring a perfectly level structure year-round.
- No Construction Delays: There are no delays between the installation of helical piles and the start of deck construction, allowing us to complete your project more efficiently.
- Ideal for Restricted Spaces: Helical piles can be installed in tight or restricted spaces where traditional methods might be challenging.
- All-Season Installation: Helical piles can be installed regardless of the season, ensuring your project can proceed without weather-related interruptions.
- Removable and Reusable: The helical pile system is both removable and reusable, providing flexibility for future modifications or relocations.
Why Choose Helical Piles for Your Trex Deck?
If you’re considering investing in a Trex deck, which boasts a 50-year warranty on the boards, it’s essential to pair it with a foundation system designed to last just as long. Helical piles provide a durable and reliable foundation that complements the longevity and quality of Trex decking.
