Helical / Screw Piles for Exterior Stair Footings
Rock-solid support
If you are considering installing or reinforcing an exterior staircase, safety is one of the biggest factors to consider when choosing the type of foundation to use. To ensure the strength and durability of your exterior staircase, screw piles will not only be installed quickly, but they will also allow you to go up and down the stairs with absolute peace of mind. Offering a wide range of helices, from 8 to 29 inches in diameter, our helical (screw) piles offer optimal compression and tension performance, allowing them to support the load of your staircase and the people who will use it.
A rapid and damage-free installation
Our quick installation process, carried out with light and compact equipment, allows you to avoid excavation and begin building as soon as the installation of the helical (screw) piles is complete. In addition, we can install them in all types of soils and spaces, even restricted ones that would normally be hard to reach.
With the help of our certified installers, GoliathTech’s screw piles will support the foundation of your exterior stairs for many years to come.
Finally, don't forget that screw pile foundations are much more economical than traditional concrete foundations. This is another advantage that can’t be overlooked!
