Composite® Foundation Piers

Only Trotter Company installs a reinforced, commercial duty, multi-helical pier as our standard residential pier, rated at over 50,000 lbs.

Heavy wall couplers with quadruple bolts provide rigid connections between pier sections. Heavy wall steel pipe reinforced with 5000 psi concrete provides the strongest standard residential pier available.

The solid core also prevents water flowing down the pier shaft. Large helical steel “footings” at multiple levels provide stable end barring foundations.

Our Composite® Piers are completely installed and tested before they are attached to the foundation; this ensures that no additional damage will occur to your home during installation.

Ponding Water or Wet/Damp Crawlspace

If water is collecting in flat areas or the soil is staying saturated in some spots, it may be surface depressions causing the problem. These depressions allow water to puddle, creating a mess. A swale could be helpful, or certain portions could be filled in and graded so that the water drains out of the low spot and away from the home. If this doesn’t work, an underground catch basin or drain may be necessary. If you notice that your lawn is muddy in one spot and dry in the next, it could be the type of soil that is causing drainage problems. There are three basic soil types: sand, silt and clay. If your soil is heavy in clay, it won’t drain very well. If it’s sandy, it will let water slip right through. If it is sandy right against your home, the water will run down the sides of your foundation causing wet areas in the walls to your basement. The best trick is to dig a small hole, fill it with water and watch how it drains. If it takes 12-24 hours to drain, you have a problem. (It should only take about 4 hours.) Improve your soil with a coarse aggregate like sand or pea gravel and organic matter.
