Helical and Driven Pile Repair with Moisture Control
At Ram Jack of VA, we provide comprehensive solutions to address crawl space issues, including foundation settlement, moisture control, and structural stability. Our team of experts utilizes two effective techniques: helical and driven pile repair, along with moisture control measures. Below, you’ll discover more about these methods and how they can restore the integrity and functionality of your crawl space.
Helical and Driven Pile Repair
Helical and driven pile repairs are proven methods used to stabilize and level foundations in crawl spaces. These techniques involve installing steel piles to transfer the structure's weight to stable soil or bedrock, providing a solid foundation.
Benefits of Helical and Driven Pile Repair
- Structural Stability
Pile repair effectively supports and stabilizes the foundation, preventing further settlement and potential damage to the structure.
- Versatility
Helical and driven piles can be installed in various soil conditions, including soft or weak soils, providing reliable support.
- Longevity
These solutions offer long-lasting results, ensuring the stability and durability of your crawl space foundation for years to come.
Moisture Control in Virginia
Moisture control is an essential aspect of crawl space repair. Excessive moisture in crawl spaces can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and other structural problems. At Ram Jack of VA, we incorporate moisture control measures into our crawl space repair services to create a healthier and more stable environment.
Benefits of Moisture Control
- Mold Prevention
By controlling moisture levels, we help prevent mold and mildew growth, safeguarding the indoor air quality and the health of your home's occupants.
- Structural Integrity
Moisture control measures protect wooden components from decay, ensuring the structural integrity of your crawl space and the overall foundation.

Helical Pile Repair In A Crawlspace
Helical and Driven Pile Repair for Crawl Spaces
Ram Jack of Virginia employs helical and driven pile repair methods to repair settlement in homes with crawlspace foundations. Below are just a few of the techniques we can use to stop damaging settlement.
1 Evaluation
Ram Jack of Virginia's experts will thoroughly evaluate your crawl space to identify any signs of settlement, foundation damage, or compromised structural integrity. This assessment allows them to determine the most suitable repair method.
2 Helical Pile Repair
Helical piles, consisting of steel shafts with helical plates, are strategically installed to support and stabilize the foundation of your crawl space. These piles are driven deep into the stable soil layers, providing reliable support and preventing further settlement.
3 Driven Pile Repair
Steel push piles are another effective option for crawl space repair. These piles are hydraulically driven into the ground, reaching stable soil or load-bearing strata. By transferring the weight of the foundation to these piles, they restore stability to the crawl space.
4 Foundation Restoration
Once the helical or driven piles are installed, Ram Jack of Virginia's professionals will carefully restore any damaged areas of the crawl space foundation. This may involve leveling the surface, addressing cracks or fractures, and ensuring overall structural integrity.
