When it comes to building a house, the foundation is one of the most critical components. It’s what keeps the house stable and safe, and it’s essential to ensure that it’s strong and secure. One of the options for foundation support is the use of screw piers. In this blog post, we’ll discuss what screw piers are, why we need them, and why it’s cheaper with 13 Homes Pty Ltd.
What Are Screw Piers?
Screw piers, also known as helical piers, are a type of foundation support system used to provide stability to the house’s foundation. They are made of high-quality steel and come in different sizes and lengths, depending on the soil type, depth, and load requirements.
Why Do We Need Screw Piers?
The use of screw piers offers several benefits for a house’s foundation. First, they provide excellent stability and can support heavy loads, making them ideal for constructing buildings on challenging soil types. Additionally, they are easy to install, and the installation process doesn’t require any excavation or soil removal.
Why It’s Cheaper with 13 Homes Pty Ltd?
At 13 Homes Pty Ltd, we believe in providing high-quality services at affordable prices. When it comes to screw piers, we offer a cost-effective solution that doesn’t compromise on quality. We suggest clients get a Geotech report done so we can determine the depth of the soil and whether screw piers are required. If the soil is above 3 meters deep, we find that using screw piers is a more cost-effective option as it eliminates the need for soil removal and disposal. We include the extra cost of screw piers in the building contract, so there are no surprises for our clients.
Moreover, at 13 Homes, we have links with wholesale suppliers, and we get high-quality products at better prices than the market, which enables us to offer more affordable prices for our services.
