Push Piers (Micropiles) that lift and support Weak Foundations

Push Piers

We understand the concerns that come with foundation problems, which is why we introduce you to the advanced technique of micropile underpinning. This sophisticated method has emerged as a highly effective solution for retrofitting and rehabilitating buildings, ensuring the stability and longevity of your home.

Benefits of Micropile Underpinning

Micropiles are constructed using high-strength steel casings, creating an adhesive effect with the surrounding soil. The underpinning process involves the installation of hollow bars through the injection bored method, where they are filled with a cement grout mixture while an anchor is drilled into the grout. Choosing micropile underpinning offers several advantages, including:

Fast and Effective: Micropile underpinning ensures swift and efficient stabilization of your foundation, preventing further damage.
Simultaneous Drilling and Grouting: The drilling and grouting processes occur simultaneously, saving time and ensuring a seamless repair.
Suitability for Limited Spaces: Smaller equipment can be utilized, making micropile underpinning ideal for properties with restricted spaces, resulting in cost-effective solutions.
Ground Improvement: Micropile underpinning not only stabilizes your foundation but also improves the ground beneath, enhancing overall property safety.
Enhanced Protection: The high skin friction provided by micropiles offers superior protection, ensuring the long-term stability of your home.
How Micropile Underpinning Works

Micropile underpinning utilizes small-diameter piles installed with a specialized drilling rig, typically made of steel or concrete. These piles are driven deep into the ground until they reach a stable stratum, after which they are grouted in place. Once in position, the load from your foundation is transferred to these micropiles, effectively stabilizing your home and preventing further settling.
