  • Guaranteed Technology

    Traditional concrete footings and sonotubes are prone to damage from frost heave and ground instability. Our CCMC certified piles are anchored securely deep in the ground, below the frost line, ensuring reliable performance. Emprical relationships between installation torque and capacity means predictable performance.

  • Many Applications

    Helical piles have a broad spectrum of applications, ranging from supporting decks, additions, Ev charging stations, and carports to securing solar panels and more. In addition, they are highly effective in unique situations, such as stabilizing sinking foundations or reaching depths of more than 20 feet, thereby saving homeowners unnecessary excavation expenses.

  • Small Footprint

    Our smaller residential helical piles can be installed using compact machinery, which helps minimize damage to your yard. At Rexcavating, we go the extra mile to protect your property during the installation process.
