Installing structural helical piers as a do-it-yourself project for a home foundation is strongly discouraged. While small, manual screw anchors can sometimes be used for lightweight garden sheds or patio decks, stabilizing a settling residential foundation requires rigorous geotechnical engineering reports, precise torque monitoring equipment, heavy hydraulic drive machinery, and professional load testing. Incorrect installation can lead to severe structural failure and property damage.
