When it comes to repairing and replacing post and pad foundations for cottages and cabins, Hanover Screw Pile stands out as the industry leader. With extensive experience in engineering and geotechnical engineering, we provide the most reliable, long-lasting, and structurally sound post and pad systems available. Whether your cottage is settling unevenly, experiencing foundation movement, or in need of a complete overhaul, our specialized house-lifting equipment and expert team ensure that your foundation is not just repaired but upgraded for long-term stability.

Understanding the Challenges of Post and Pad Foundations
Post and pad foundations are a common choice for cottages and cabins due to their cost-effectiveness and adaptability to uneven or rocky terrain. However, they come with their own set of challenges:
- Soil Movement – Seasonal changes cause the ground to expand and contract, leading to foundation shifting and sinking.
- Frost Heave – In colder climates, freezing temperatures can push posts out of alignment, causing structural instability.
- Moisture and Drainage Issues – Poor drainage can lead to wood rot, erosion, and weakened support structures.
- Aging and Deterioration – Over time, wooden posts decay, and concrete pads crack, leading to an unstable foundation.
At Hanover Screw Pile, we don’t just fix these problems—we provide a superior solution that ensures your cottage or cabin remains level, secure, and resilient for decades to come.
Why Choose Hanover Screw Pile?
1. Precision House Lifting for Perfect Elevation
A key component of our repair process is our advanced house lifting equipment. Unlike traditional methods that rely on manual adjustments, we use state-of-the-art lifting technology to precisely elevate your structure to its correct level. This allows us to:
- Accurately assess the condition of existing foundation elements
- Adjust and correct any structural misalignment
- Ensure that new post and pad placements are at the proper elevation
This precise control over elevation and leveling sets us apart from competitors and guarantees a stable and secure foundation.
2. Engineering Expertise for Long-Term Stability
At Hanover Screw Pile, we bring extensive engineering and geotechnical knowledge to every project. Our team evaluates the soil conditions, load-bearing requirements, and environmental factors to design a foundation system that will perform exceptionally well in your specific location.
We consider:
- Soil composition and drainage – Ensuring the ground can support the structure without excessive shifting
- Load distribution – Designing the post and pad system to evenly distribute the weight of your cabin
- Frost protection – Implementing strategies to prevent seasonal movement caused by freezing and thawing
This data-driven approach results in a foundation that resists shifting, settling, and environmental stress.

Unlike standard repair services that simply replace old components with similar materials, Hanover Screw Pile builds the best post and pad system available. Our materials and installation techniques exceed industry standards, offering unmatched durability and strength.

- High-strength steel or composite posts – Resistant to rot, pests, and weather damage
