Foundation repair features
Chance helical piles are used to stabilize and/or lift failing foundations or retrofitting to increase load capacity. They are installed at intervals around the perimeter at affected locations.
Commercial and industrial building foundation repair
Selected based on load requirements and soil conditions, our foundation systems offer capacities ranging up to 220,000 pounds for each pile. Discover the advantages of using helical piles over driven piles, slab jacking, and augur cast piles. Avoid the mess, noise, and long installation time associated with other technologies. Often, a building can be repaired without ever having to close its doors to employees or customers. Chance Certified Installers are thoroughly trained in installation procedures and are supported by our extensive technical-support services and backed by our 30-year transferrable warranty.
Historical remediation
Chance helical piles are often relied on for the precise construction required for successful historical remediation. Installable indoors, outdoors, and in limited access spaces, our helical piles have helped save hundreds of buildings from structural failure. Helical piles can save a failing foundation and gives historic preservationists a repair option that does not negatively impact the historic value of the structure.
Residential foundation repair
Because homes are often built on shallow foundations, it is sometimes necessary to repair and stabilize a sinking house foundation. Sticking doors and windows, stairstep cracks in brick masonry, and drywall cracks in walls and ceilings are common indicators that foundation repair is needed. Chance offers two similar solutions for foundation repair. Chance helical piles are screwed into the ground, and Atlas Resistance Piers are pushed into the ground. Both are installed to stable, load-bearing soils and connected to your home via repair brackets.
