Agricultural structures require strength, speed, and stability—and that’s exactly what Screw Pile Installers delivers. Our helical pile foundations provide long-lasting, code-compliant support for barns, machine sheds, hay storage, and equipment buildings across British Columbia and Alberta. Designed to perform in all soil types and weather conditions, our screw piles ensure your farm buildings stay level, secure, and ready for decades of use.
Whether you’re building on clay, sand, slopes, or frost-prone terrain, our screw piles provide unmatched stability and faster installation than traditional concrete footings.
Strong, Stable Foundations for Agricultural Buildings
Agricultural structures are built to work hard—and so are our foundations. Whether you’re constructing a new barn, machinery shed, or feed storage building, helical piles provide a faster, more reliable alternative to traditional concrete footings.
Our piles deliver superior performance in all types of farm environments—from clay fields to frost-prone soil—ensuring your structure stays perfectly level and supported, season after season.
WHY CHOOSE US
Why Farmers and Ranchers Choose Helical Piles
With engineered precision and local expertise, Screw Pile Installers provides the foundation strength your agricultural operation depends on.
Faster Build Times
Helical piles install in hours, not days—no waiting for concrete to cure. You can start framing immediately after installation.
Adaptable to All Soils
From soft topsoil to clay, sand, or gravel, screw piles are engineered to perform in the variable soil conditions found across Western Canada.
Built for Heavy Loads
Designed to support large-span roofs, equipment weight, and snow loads, making them ideal for agricultural applications.
Resists Frost Heave
Helical piles are anchored below the frost line, preventing foundation movement and keeping your barn or shed stable year-round.
Minimal Site Impact
No excavation or concrete trucks required—perfect for active farms and remote rural sites where access is limited.
Long-Term Durability
Galvanized steel piles provide 75+ years of corrosion resistance, ensuring your structure remains secure for generations.
Our Process
How the Helical Pile Installation Process Works
Every agricultural project begins with a plan built on precision and ends with a foundation built to last. Here’s how our process ensures long-term performance for your barns and equipment sheds.
[01]
Site Assessment & Engineering Review
Our team evaluates your soil, load requirements, and building design to determine the ideal pile type, depth, and spacing for structural integrity.
[03]
Pile Installation
Using hydraulic drive heads, we screw each pile into the ground until it reaches the proper torque and depth—creating an immediate, load-ready foundation.
[05]
Bracket or Beam Attachment
Piles are fitted with structural brackets or beams, creating a secure, level base ready for construction
[02]
Marking Pile Locations
Each pile location is marked with accuracy to align perfectly with building columns, load points, and framing systems.
[04]
Load Testing & Verification
We perform on-site load testing to confirm that each pile meets engineering specifications and can handle the full weight of your structure.
[06]
Final Inspection & Cleanup
Before leaving your site, we complete a full inspection, torque log documentation, and site cleanup, ensuring your foundation meets or exceeds code standards.
Comparison
Helical Piles vs. Concrete for Agricultural Structures
Yes. Helical piles are engineered to handle heavy agricultural loads, including large equipment, snow, and livestock structures.
Absolutely. Helical piles can be installed year-round, even in frozen or saturated conditions, without delays or curing time.
When properly installed and galvanized, screw piles can last 75 years or more, depending on soil conditions and environmental exposure.
Yes. They’re ideal for post-frame construction, securely anchoring structural posts and preventing shifting or frost heaving.
Pricing depends on soil conditions, building size, and load requirements. Most projects range from $200–$400 per pile installed, with free, no-obligation estimates available.
