A Cost-Effective and Reliable Solution for Your Home

If you’re dealing with foundation problems such as cracks, uneven floors, or a settling foundation, hybrid pier foundation repair offers a dependable and cost-effective solution. This innovative method combines the strength of steel with the affordability of concrete to deliver long-lasting stability for your home. With the added reassurance of our Lifetime Transferable Warranty, hybrid piers provide a trusted option for protecting your property. 

What Is a Hybrid Pier?

A hybrid pier is a specialized foundation repair solution that starts with up to 7 feet of interlocking steel piling, transitioning seamlessly to concrete pilings. This design leverages the strength of steel for deep penetration and the affordability of concrete for additional depth. It’s a great choice for homeowners seeking durable results without the higher costs associated with steel-only solutions. 

The Hybrid Pier Foundation Repair Process 

Our hybrid pier installation process mirrors that of traditional steel and concrete pilings but with a unique twist

  1. Steel Starter Section: We begin by installing up to 10 feet of steel piling to penetrate through tough layers, including shallow rock. 
  2. Transition to Concrete: A specialized transition piece connects the steel to the concrete, allowing us to seamlessly switch materials. 
  3. Reaching Refusal: Concrete sections are installed until the pier reaches the point of refusal, helping to establish a stable foundation. 

What Types of Foundations Are Eligible? 

Hybrid pier foundation repair works for: 

Slab Foundations 

Effectively addresses settling issues in heavier or newer constructions. The steel hybrid pier repair method provides added stability to prevent further foundation movement.   

Pier and Beam Homes 

Select pier and beam foundations may also benefit from this repair method. It’s particularly effective in homes with challenging soil conditions or uneven weight distribution.   

Advantages of Hybrid Piers

  1. Cost Control: One of the biggest benefits of the hybrid system is cost predictability. With a capped cost structure, you avoid depth-related surprises common in steel pier installations. 
  2. Superior Penetration: The initial steel segment penetrates rocky or sandy soils with ease, ensuring stability. 
  3. Cost Savings on Rocky Soil: If solid rock is encountered within the first 10 feet, you essentially get the benefit of steel piling at a reduced cost. 

Is a Hybrid Pier Right for Your Home? 

While every home’s foundation is unique, hybrid pressed pilings repair is a great option for: 

  • Heavier Homes: Typically an effective option for newer construction or homes with above-average weight. 
  • Challenging Soil Conditions: Works well in rocky or sandy environments. 
  • Long-Term Reliability: Backed by our Lifetime Transferable Warranty, hybrid piers provide peace of mind for homeowners. 

Hybrid Pier Foundation Repair Costs

Hybrid piers are designed to deliver the strength of steel and the affordability of concrete. Costs fall between traditional concrete pilings and full steel pilings. Unlike steel pier installations, there is no depth clause—costs are capped regardless of soil depth. This makes hybrid piers an excellent balance of quality and budget.
