Our Patented Best-in-Business Wells Concentric Piers for Foundation Stabilization in Southern California
Professional Foundation Repair is proud to offer our exclusive, patented, Wells Contentric Piers for structural foundation reinforcement and underpinning. Our piers are designed to give homeowners and property owners the peace of mind that comes from having the soundest, most stable foundation possible. Freedom from worries about foundation issues lets you focus on other priorities. Our unique design delivers all of that by providing unparalleled strength, stability, and security.
In Southern California, where geological conditions can lead to foundation issues and safety concerns, water might cause more than you think, thereby underlining the importance of installing foundation drainage systems. A proper foundation waterproofing and drainage system is essential to protect your home from water damage, soil erosion, and potential structural instability. In Southern California, the high clay content in the soil poses a significant risk to foundations, as it swells when wet and shrinks when dry, exerting pressure on the foundation walls.
Without adequate waterproofing and drainage measures, water can seep into the foundation, leading to cracks, mold growth, and even foundation settlement. These issues can compromise the structural integrity of your home and pose a safety hazard to occupants.
Professional Foundation Repair in Garden Grove, in conjunction with our sister company, Professional Drainage Experts, can provide a complete solution to your home’s foundation problems. We’ll treat not just the symptoms of your issues, but the root cause – and that can include drainage and waterproofing solutions.

Unique Pier Design
Our exclusive concentric pier design offers greater, strength, stability, and durability than typical helical or push piers. Here are the differences:
- Our piers are placed directly beneath the foundation walls, instead of attaching to the side of the walls. This makes for a stronger connection and provides stronger structural reinforcement.
- Like hydraulic push piers, our piers, are also driven into the soil with hydraulic equipment. However, our double-sided Schedule 40 steel shaft enables our piers to reach deeper, until they hit strata, or bedrock, redistributing the load of the foundation from the loose and unstable soil to the solid, bedrock layer.
- The unique pier design of Wells Concentric Piers prevents buckling, technically known as Euler buckling, over time. This means our piers are last longer, providing a safe and stable foundation for years to come.
- Our piers have a proven load-bearing capacity of up to 105,000 lbs. - nearly twice that of regular helical or push piers. This means less likelihood of future shifting or buckling, and a more durable foundation solution that lasts longer.
- Wells Concentric Piers can be adjusted where necessary to accommodate shifts in the bedrock layer due to seismic activity, without requiring an additional, full foundation repair installation.
The Installation Process for Wells Concentric Piers in Southern California Foundation Repair
Professional Foundation Repair’s Wells Concentric Piers feature a unique design that makes them a better solution for stabilizing and securing foundations in Southern California. However, the installation process for our piers is very similar to standard hydraulic push piers.
Steps for installing Wells Concentric Piers:
- Determine the location for installing the hydraulic push piers. This is typically done by one of our structural engineers after inspecting the property for signs of foundation settlement.
- Our expert team will prepare the area by clearing out any obstacles or debris that may hinder the installation process. This may involve digging a small hole or trench near the foundation where the piers will be placed.
- The Wells Concentric Piers are into the ground using a hydraulic system. This process involves inserting steel piers into the soil beneath the foundation until they reach stable bedrock or load-bearing strata.
- Our team then connects the piers to the bottom of the foundation using steel brackets or plates. These brackets will help transfer the structure’s weight onto the piers, providing additional support and stability.
- Next, we will gradually lift and stabilize the foundation using the hydraulic push pier system. This may involve adjusting the pressure of the piers to ensure that the foundation is properly supported and aligned.
- We’ll then fill in any holes or trenches created during the installation process and restore the area to its original condition.
- Finally, our structural engineers will conduct a final inspection to ensure the Wells Concentric Piers are properly installed and the foundation is stable. Make any necessary adjustments or repairs as needed.
- Schedule regular maintenance and inspections to monitor the performance of the piers and address any potential issues before they escalate.

Wells Concentric Piers Frequently Asked Questions
What are Wells Concentric Piers?
Wells Concentric Piers are a type of foundation stabilization and repair method designed and used exclusively by Professional Foundation Repair in Southern California. They are uniquely designed steel piers that are driven into the ground in a concentric pattern beneath the foundation of a building to help stabilize and support it.
When should Wells Concentric Piers be used?
Wells Concentric Piers are commonly used when a building’s foundation has settled or shifted due to poor soil conditions, excessive moisture, or other factors. They can help to lift and stabilize the foundation, preventing further damage to the building.
How are Wells Concentric Piers installed?
Wells Concentric Piers are installed by driving them into the ground with hydraulic equipment. Once the piers are in place, they are connected to the foundation using steel brackets or plates. The weight of the building is then transferred onto the piers, providing additional support and stability.
What are the benefits of using Wells Concentric Piers for foundation repair?
Some of the benefits of using Wells Concentric Piers for foundation repair include:
- The unique design makes Wells Concentric Piers stronger than typical hydraulic push piers. Wells Concentric Piers have a proven load capacity of up to 105,000 lbs., enabling them to provide greater stability over time.
- The double-sided shaft of Schedule 40 steel is longer and can be driven further into the ground, ensuring that strata or bedrock is reached. This allows us to transfer the foundation load from loose soil to the security of the stable bedrock layer.
- Wells Concentric Piers’ design prevents the buckling that can occur over time with typical hydraulic push piers, known as Euler buckling. This means homeowners can have peace of mind knowing their foundation solution will be stable and secure for years to come, and they are less likely to have to replace or adjust piers in the future.
How long do Wells Concentric Piers last?
Wells Concentric Piers are designed to last for many years and provide long-lasting support for the foundation of a building. With proper installation and maintenance, they can help to prevent further foundation issues and stabilize the structure for years to come.
Do Wells Concentric Piers require regular maintenance?
Wells Concentric Piers are typically low maintenance once they are installed. However, it is important to periodically inspect the piers and foundation for any signs of movement or settlement to ensure that they are functioning properly. Regular maintenance can help to prevent future issues and prolong the lifespan of the piers.
