How does Ground screw pricing compare traditional concrete and helical piles?
Ground Screws are much quicker to install and feature a wide range of advantages over concrete. When comparing the Ground Screws’ raw material cost against concrete, it is more expensive, but offers long term quality benefits like no frost heave, no post rot and the potential to be removed with ease and re-used. Compared to Helical Piles, the biggest advantage is staying within budget. It is a fact that Ground Screw foundations do not have to be installed as deep as Helical Piles because there is much more soil displacement and compaction occurring during installation. Therefore in many cases, a Ground Screw can reach its required ground resistance significantly faster than a Helical Pile.
