Cabin Foundation Stabilization in Ashland, WI

The new owners of this 150-year-old cabin in Ashland, WI were looking for a way to permanently lift and stabilize the cabin. Wanting the job down professionally, they reached out to DBS.

Design Specialist, James Miller, visited the cabin and provided the owners with a free, no-obligation estimate. James recommended the installation of helical piers along the cabin's foundation to permanently lift and stabilize the cabin.

DBS Foreman, Nate Simonson, and his crew mate, Adam Upton, then installed 20 helical piers around the cabin to lift and stabilize the cabin. These helical are driven into the ground using hydraulic pressure. Once the pier reaches solid, stable bedrock, the pressure pushes against the ground and causes the piers to stabilize the structure.
