At Down Force Piling & Supply, we believe in providing innovative foundation solutions that save time, reduce costs, and increase project efficiency. Screw piling has emerged as a game-changing alternative to traditional foundations, offering numerous advantages for residential, commercial, and industrial projects. Here’s why screw piling is gaining traction in Calgary and beyond.
First and foremost, screw piles save time. Unlike conventional foundations, which may involve multiple contractors for excavation, forming, and pouring concrete, screw piles are installed by a single team, eliminating the need for coordinating between 3-4 businesses. Additionally, they can be installed after backfilling, minimizing layout and placement issues that can arise during construction. With the ability to install these piles directly into soil, the risk of settlement is dramatically reduced, ensuring long-term stability for your structures.
Versatility is another standout feature of screw piling. The piles are designed to resist frost heaving, uplift, and wind forces, as they are installed at least six feet below frost depth. With customizable caps and a mechanical connection point, they can accommodate a variety of applications, from residential decks to industrial structures. The sustainability of screw piles is also unmatched: they can be removed, relocated, and reused, making them an eco-friendly and cost-effective choice for both temporary and permanent projects.
