WE DRILL DOWN, SO YOU CAN BUILD UP.


For decades, Helical has been revolutionizing the ground improvement and geotechnical construction industry in the Northeast.

Unique foundations need unique solutions.



Helical specializes in creating customized foundations for even the most complex ground construction challenges.

While we’re constantly adapting our technologies to new ground improvement techniques with a team of geotechnical engineers and construction managers, these are the common geotechnical challenges we’re prepared to solve today:

NEW CONSTRUCTION/ADDITIONS:

  • Unsuitable Geotechnical Conditions
    • Deep Fill
    • Peat and Organics
    • Soft Ground
    • Shallow Groundwater
    • Excessive Settlement
    • Insufficient Soil Bearing Capacity
    • Soil Liquefaction
  • Heavy Foundation Loads
  • Compression Load Resistance
  • Uplift or Tension Load Resistance
  • Limited Access Construction
  • Low Vibration Construction
  • Work Adjacent to Existing Structures
  • Excavation Adjacent to Existing Structures
  • Deep Excavations
  • Basement Expansions
  • Reinforced Slopes
  • Slope Stabilization

REMEDIATION OF EXISTING STRUCTURES:

  • Settling/Sinking Foundations or Slabs
  • Unstable Foundations or Slabs
  • Adding Loads to Existing Structures
  • Limited Access Remediation
  • Work Adjacent to Existing Structures
  • Slab Curling
  • Pipe Abandonment/Grouting
  • Voids Below Foundations or Slabs
  • Groundwater Seepage Control
  • Failed or Unstable Slopes
  • Failed or Unstable Walls
  • Leaking or Unstable Dams
  • Elevated FEMA Flood Elevations

Innovative, Efficient and Adaptable Geotechnical Solutions



Managing the risks of site development is a tremendous challenge that can have significant cost and schedule impacts on your project.  We recognize those risks and have spent years innovating solutions to turn your biggest geotechnical challenges into your biggest project successes.  Check out our services to see how we can help contribute to your success.
