What Is Pressed Piling?

A 5-Point Process Backed by a Lifetime Warranty

Pressed pilings provide your property—including large apartment complexes and office buildings—with additional support and stability. This can be crucial in areas with extreme weather, shifting soil, or soil with high clay content, as the irregular contraction and expansion of the ground beneath your building can drastically affect the foundation—leading to cracks or sloping. 

Concrete pressed pilings are thick, vertical cylinders of concrete that are driven deep into the soil under your property. Stacking cylinders until the needed depth is reached, the pilings are then topped by a wider concrete block for further support and distribution of weight underneath your property’s grade beam. This time-tested support system is also minimally invasive when compared to other methods and fast to install, often taking as little as a day.

Our process includes:

Step 1 – Job Site Preparation: Our foreman and crew examine the property and begin preparation. The locations of the piers are marked, excavation begins, and any concrete in the pier location is jack hammered out to allow for installation. Holes are dug beneath the grade beam at each pier to allow for the placement of equipment and pilings.

Step 2 – Piling Installation: Using pressurized hydraulic equipment and the weight of the house, pilings are pressed down into place. As one piling is driven in, another is placed on top—repeating until the pilings hit the point of refusal. When refusal is reached, a concrete block is placed between the last piling and the grade beam.

Step 3 – Slab Lifting: After installing the piling, the foundation is raised slowly and carefully in stages, starting with the lowest portion first. Our experienced foreman takes readings and supervises this stage to ensure a proper lift. Once the foundation is elevated, steel shims are wedged under the grade beam on top of the piling.

Step 4 – Job Site Cleanup: Our crew begins cleanup by backfilling the piling holes. Any concrete that was jack hammered to access the pier is patched back. We then remove all of the debris and inspect the home and yard to ensure a clean job site. We then provide a final walk-through with you to get your approval.

Step 5 – Customer Satisfaction: Our foreman ensures all your questions have been answered and that you are fully satisfied with the job we performed.
