Foundation pilings

Auger.

Crane. (not our usual sandhills)


The pilings that will hold up the house are going in now! The King Company, which is experienced in environmentally sensitive areas, is drilling down to a more stable layer and putting auger cast pilings in. Cement is poured in as the rotating auger is withdrawn from the hole. It's not like a driven pile that makes a lot of noise and vibration while going in.
The house will sit a foot and a half above grade on 19 pilings.
