What makes them different?
At the end of the day, these manufacturers all produce high quality products that will solve your foundation problems. One of the biggest differences between these manufacturers is the warranties they offer with their products and the amount of training/vetting needed to become a certified installer/dealer. Be sure to understand the warranties offered by the manufacturer and not solely the contractor. Some manufacturers do not require a very high level of training/vetting prior to becoming a certified installer, which is not very settling considering their crews will be using heavy equipment near your home and foundation, so be wary when choosing a foundation repair company.
We hope this article serves to educate you on some of the top helical pier manufacturers in the U.S. and a little bit of information on their company’s. Be sure to ask your local foundation repair companies what manufacturer’s they use for their foundation repair products and understand the training/warranties that the manufacturer offers.
