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.

Reliable Foundations for Public & Private Event Structures

Helical piles—also known as screw piles—are the modern foundation choice for outdoor structures that host gatherings, recreation, and community events. Their load-bearing strength and precision installation make them ideal for both permanent and semi-permanent spaces, from festival venues to park pavilions.

Each project is custom-engineered to meet site conditions, load requirements, and local regulations—ensuring your event structure remains stable, level, and compliant for years to come.

WHY CHOOSE US

Why Event Builders Choose Helical Piles

At Screw Pile Installers, we combine engineering precision with field expertise, delivering stable, elegant foundations that enhance both functionality and aesthetics in your outdoor event space.

Fast, Clean Installation

Foundations can be installed in a single day—no excavation, concrete curing, or heavy machinery required.

Perfect for Public Spaces

Helical piles minimize ground disturbance, protecting park landscapes, green spaces, and existing vegetation.

All-Season Installation

Install year-round—even in frozen or wet ground—without delays or weather restrictions.

Built for Longevity

Hot-dip galvanized steel resists corrosion, frost movement, and heavy load stress—lasting 75+ years in most environments.

Environmentally Responsible

A sustainable foundation solution that leaves minimal soil disturbance and can be removed or relocated if needed.

Architecturally Flexible

Compatible with wood, steel, or hybrid pavilion designs—ensuring perfect alignment and long-term support for any layout.

Our Process

How the Helical Pile Installation Process Works

Our refined process ensures every project is installed with accuracy, efficiency, and code compliance, regardless of site complexity or environmental conditions.

[01]

Site Assessment & Engineering Design

We begin with a detailed assessment of the soil conditions, load demands, and design requirements to engineer a foundation layout optimized.

[03]

Pile Installation

Using specialized hydraulic drive equipment, we install each screw pile to the required torque and depth—quietly, cleanly, and without excavation or vibration.

[05]

Bracket or Beam Connection

Piles are capped or fitted with structural brackets and beams, forming a secure, level platform ready for construction.

[02]

Layout & Marking

Each pile location is marked according to the structure’s design to ensure proper spacing, alignment, and balance—essential for pavilions with wide spans or open designs.

[04]

Load Testing & Verification

We conduct on-site torque and proof load testing to verify each pile’s load capacity, ensuring compliance with engineering and safety standards.

[06]

Final Inspection & Site Clean-Up

After installation, we complete a full inspection to confirm compliance with engineering specifications. The site is left neat and level—ready for immediate building assembly.
