Time:2025-09-18

Better Screw Co. is proud to offer its galvanized steel helical piles as a modern alternative to traditional concrete foundations for cellphone towers. This foundation solution is quickly becoming the industry standard for its many advantages. 


Key Benefits:

  • Superior Stability in All Climates

The helical piles are designed to withstand freeze-thaw cycles and heavy vertical loads by being screwed deep into stable soil layers. They provide reliable performance in areas where concrete may crack or shift due to frost or ground movement. 


  • Quick, Low-Impact Installation

Using compact equipment, Better Screw Co.’s helical piles can be installed without extensive excavation. Construction can begin immediately after installation, saving time and site disruption. 


  • Adaptability & Corrosion Resistance

These foundations work across varied terrain and are especially valuable for remote or difficult-to-access tower sites. Plus, steel piles are galvanized to resist corrosion, ensuring long service life even in wet or corrosive environments.


Ideal Use Cases:

  • New cellphone tower builds in rural or mountainous areas

  • Upgrades or replacements for older towers with failing concrete footers

  • Infrastructure projects in cold climates or areas with unstable soil


Better Screw Co.’s helical pile solutions help telecom operators reduce foundation costs, speed up deployment, and improve the reliability of tower installations.
