What VersaPile Can Do For You
Our team of highly-trained and relentlessly-motivated professionals are eager to put your project on an unshakable foundation. Here's what we can do for you
Foundation Design & Engineering
We are certified geostructural engineers with qualifications in structural and geotechnical foundation engineering. Whether you need a complete suite of foundation engineering services or are looking for a second set of eyes to review your existing design, we can help.
Our in-house foundation design and engineering team is trained in helical piles and experienced with technically challenging large-scale projects.
Foundation Installation
The best deep foundation design in the world would be worthless if it didn't have a superb team of installers to take it from a plan to reality. Our crews have been installing helical piles for years in virtually every condition Central Canada has to offer.
With installation equipment to suit any project, and on-site maintenance staff to keep our gear in top-condition, we're ready to tackle your tricky and technical large-scale foundation installations.
Pile Load Testing
If you want to confirm the performance of helical piles at your job site, then you need a quality pile load test delivered by an experienced team and led by engineers. Our team has years of experience in designing and performing pile load tests. From installing test piles, to fabricating the test rig, to actually performing and interpreting the test.
You'll receive a detailed report that outlines the performance of the pile, gives context to your geotechnical report, confirms pile capacities, and much more.
Geotechnical Investigations
In order to design and install the perfect helical foundation solution for your project in Central Canada, our team needs to know what's going on with your soil conditions. If you don't have a geotechnical site report, or would like an additional investigation, we can arrange it for you.
Don't worry about the hassle of hiring (and managing) a geotechnical firm. We'll take care of the entire process for you.
Fabrication & Manufacturing
When you're dealing with highly technical or large-scale projects, like those found in utilities or communications infrastructure, sometimes "off the shelf" won't cut it. Whether you need special grillages, pile caps, transitions, or other custom foundation structures, we have the fabrication expertise to create it for you.
Don't let your project be limited by location, soil conditions, or structural loads.
Knowledge Sessions
The science of deep foundations for industrial and commercial construction, particularly in large-scale projects, can be confusing. Let our team of friendly experts and engineers at VersaPile teach you and your team about helical foundation solutions using unbiased and data-driven information.
Our Knowledge Sessions will quickly bring your team up-to-speed on helical pile foundations, their applications, and best practices for their use.

Why Choose a VersaPile Helical Pile Foundation for Your Project?
Faster & More Efficient
Do you really want to wait 2+ weeks for concrete to cure before you can build? How about sitting around while long and awkward driven piles are hammered into the ground? Expedite your foundation and shorten your timelines by weeks. Helical piles can be installed significantly faster than other deep foundation solutions.
Safer for Your Employees
Why risk the safety of your on-site employees with foundation solutions that require open excavation, loud machines, extensive ground disturbance, and multiple pieces of heavy equipment tearing around? Helical piles require minimal equipment, no open excavation, and are safer to install than other technologies.
Low Environmental Impact
The environmental impact of your project is under more scrutiny from regulators and investors than ever before. Dramatically reduce your impact on the local environment and make future site remediation easy. Helical piles create no disturbance to the soil, environment, animals, or people and can be easily removed.
Efficient & Economical
Helical piles aren't just faster to install than other foundations, they use less raw material and equipment. This means we spend less time on your site and you can start building faster than you ever thought possible. Plus, you can reduce your mobilization costs by using helical piles
Versatile & Customizable
Our whip-smart engineers can design a helical foundation for practically any site location or structure. Whether your job site is in the wild marshlands of Northern Canada or in the middle of a bustling city, our equipment and crews are ready to tackle any situation.
Engineer-Approved
We strictly adhere to the universally-accepted and trusted engineering principles that guide the design and installation of helical piles. Our team of highly-trained engineers and helical pile experts are ready to provide stamped designs for your project.
The Streamlined VersaPile Foundation Process
Skip the headache and hassle of unreliable foundation contractors and enjoy the smooth and efficient VersaPile Method of deep foundation design, engineering, and installation
Engineer-Approved Designs
Everything we do starts with good engineering. We sit down with you and your team to understand the unique demands and needs that your project brings. Our Engineering First approach ensures that your project is supported by the most efficient and effective foundation.
Pre-Installation Planning
One of the reasons our customers return to us time and time again for reliable deep foundations is because of our hyper-efficient processes and systems. That starts by creating a crystal-clear plan for the installation of your foundation. This includes outlining where we'll store materials, the sequence of pile installation, and defining the responsibilities of all our team members.
Smooth & Easy Installation
Because we take the time to properly plan and sequence your project, you might find the actual installation is a little... boring. Our highly-trained crews will show up on site, follow the pre-defined plan, and quietly get down to the business of installing your foundation safely and quickly. In fact, if you blink you might just miss the fact we were ever there.
Finishing Work
Whether you need a beautifully-designed pile cap to tie multiple helical piles together or straightforward finishing work, our team has the full complement of skills and equipment required to get it done right. In fact, the only thing you'll notice is how easy it is to tie into your foundation once we're finished with it.
Enduring Support (From a Team of Friendly Experts)
We understand that the job isn't done after we put your helical piles in the ground. You might have additional questions or just need some advice on transitioning your new foundation to your structure. Our team of friendly foundation experts will always be available to answer your questions or provide post-installation support and advice.
Frequently asked foundation questions
What are "industrial" helical pile foundations?
We use the term "industrial helical piles" here at VersaPile to distinguish the helical foundations we install from other companies who primarily focus on the light-duty residential markets.
While the engineering concepts behind an industrial helical pile foundation share similarities with residential helical applications, we believe it's important to draw a line between the two.
Designing and installing high-capacity helical foundations for industrial-scale hydro, transmission & distribution, oil & gas, and Indigenous community projects, demands a high level of technical skill and experience.
Our team has engineered and installed thousands of helical piles in some of the toughest conditions imaginable, supporting critical infrastructure like hydro transmission lines and telecommunication towers.Where are helical piles being used in Canada?
Helical pile foundations are used across Canada, and the world, for almost any project you can think of. From 30+ story highrise buildings to hydro utilities infrastructure and rural internet infrastructure, helical piles are used every single day to support industrial and residential construction.
Some of the projects VersaPile can design and install helical pile foundations for include:● Hydro Utilities Infrastructure● Power Transmission Lines● Battery Energy Storage Systems● Distribution Substations● Transmission Stations● Communication Towers● Internet InfrastructureAre helical piles better than concrete?
There's no straight-and-easy answer to that question. Which foundation is right for your project depends on a wide range of factors, some of which are:● Location of your jobsite● Type of structure to be supported● Soil composition and conditions● Climate and weather conditions● Expected structural loads
Once we understand all the factors associated with your project, we can tell you whether or not a helical foundation solution makes sense. If we see that another foundation technology, like concrete, would serve your needs better than we'll be honest and tell you that.How long has VersaPile been in business?
Our team has been designing and installing helical pile foundations since 2015. In total our employees have a combined total of more than 100 years working in construction and foundations.
Does VersaPile install foundations for residential projects?
VersaPile does provide helical foundation design, engineering, and installation services for large-scale or highly technical residential projects.
However, we do not perform installations for smaller projects like decks, home additions, fences, garages, etc.
