Real Concrete Drilled Piers – 12’ Deep
Real Concrete Drilled Piers 12’ Deep are a strong and long-lasting foundation repair solution used to stabilize structures built on unstable or shifting soil. This method involves drilling deep holes into the ground and installing reinforced concrete piers that transfer the weight of the structure to stronger, more stable soil layers below the surface.
This repair method is especially effective in areas where soil movement, settling, or foundation cracking has caused structural instability.
What Are Real Concrete Drilled Piers?
Concrete drilled piers are deep cylindrical concrete supports installed by drilling approximately 12 feet into the ground. After the drilling process is completed, steel reinforcement (rebar) is placed inside the hole and then filled with high-strength concrete to create a durable and stable structural support.
These piers help transfer the weight of the building to deeper and more stable soil layers, preventing further foundation settlement and structural damage.
Why Use 12’ Deep Concrete Drilled Piers?
Twelve-foot deep drilled piers provide a stronger foundation base compared to shallow repair methods and offer long-term structural stability.
Benefits include:
• Strong support for residential and commercial foundations
• Long-term stability in expansive or unstable soil conditions
• Reduced risk of future foundation settlement
• High load-bearing capacity
• Durable reinforced concrete construction
Deep drilled piers protect the foundation from surface soil movement and provide reliable long-term support for the structure.
How the Installation Process Works
The installation of concrete drilled piers is a carefully planned process designed to stabilize and support the foundation safely.
Typical installation steps include:
- Identifying the areas of the foundation that require repair.
- Drilling holes approximately 12 feet deep at specific locations.
- Installing steel reinforcement (rebar) inside the drilled holes.
- Pouring high-strength concrete into the holes.
- Allowing the concrete to cure before stabilizing the foundation.
This process ensures that the weight of the structure is properly transferred to deeper and more stable soil layers.
