Helical piles for growing subdivisions and rural East Gwillimbury lots

Built for East Gwillimbury’s Mix of New and Rural Sites

East Gwillimbury is still filling in. Queensville and parts of Sharon have new construction going up next to older rural properties, and the site conditions on those two kinds of lots are rarely the same. A new subdivision lot has fresh fill and tight setbacks; a rural property out past Mount Albert has room to work but its own drainage quirks.

Helical piles adjust to both. The rig is compact enough for a subdivision driveway, and installation does not depend on weather the way a concrete pour does, so a deck or addition can keep moving on schedule.

Soil Conditions Change Across the Municipality

Clay, sand, fill, and pockets of gravel all show up somewhere in East Gwillimbury, and rural lots can add their own drainage and moisture differences on top of that. Part of the municipality also falls under the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority, which can factor into what is required before ground gets disturbed.

Our Approach

Rather than installing to a set depth everywhere, we run each pile until the torque readings confirm it has reached soil that can actually carry the load, which is what keeps a deck or addition stable through the freeze-thaw cycle.

Permits and Engineering in East Gwillimbury

The Town of East Gwillimbury requires a building permit for most new construction, additions, garages, and decks.

Project Item What drives it East Gwillimbury considerations
Building Permit Structure type, size, and scope of the work.

New buildings over 10 square metres, additions, garages, and most decks all need an approved permit. Review the Town’s building permit page for your project type.

Deck Permit Exemption Height above grade, roof coverage, and proximity to exits.

The Town’s deck guidance identifies an exemption for uncovered wooden decks under 600 millimetres above grade that do not interfere with a required exit. Anything above that threshold needs a permit.

We quote installation after reviewing your site, since a rural lot near Mount Albert and a new build in Queensville rarely need the same pile configuration.

Working with Trevor and his team has been a seamless and stress free experience. They aligned with our vision and transformed our space quickly and efficiently. We are new to the technology of helical piles and were unsure of what they are capable of. Trevor was thorough and confident with his explanation; the effectiveness and ease of installation sold us! We are excited to enjoy our new sunroom addition and deck for years to come without worry of foundation or footing issues.

While planning a deck build for a friend, I reviewed the planning and steps needed for the 6 nessesary concrete piers and flared bottoms. It was going to be a big job. A friend recommended DiamondTech and after getting the quote, it was a no brainer to move forward with helical piles. Great communication from Chelsea, and very accurate and professional install team. Could not be happier.

In the beginning phases of a project we were working on we noticed the supporting posts of the upper deck had become rotten and unstable during excavation. Our client was concerned about delays this may cause to our project. I reached out to the team at DiamondTech Piles and connected them with our client. Our client had a quick and detailed conversation, received a quote and a timeline to deal with the urgent matter. The crew at DiamondTech were punctual, courteous and accommodating while they worked along side our crew. Communications with us and our client was clear and accurate. I would highly recommend DiamondTech if you are looking for solutions for your upcoming projects

Excellent. Professional. Right on time. Right on the money. Helical piles are the best option and these guys are the right choice. Many thanks for the excellent work! I had to add a note about the customer service! Our project started and all of a sudden we realized the saddles that receive the beams were not the 8 inch we needed.....cue panic! . I reached out to the team and the search was on! And in less than 1 hours the replacement parts were delivered. It was unbelievable to witness the commitment to customer service. Especially from the mother ship! ( you know who i mean). This team means it! And we grateful that our brain gap was was remedied!

Trevor and his team from Diamond Tech Piles installed the helical piles for our deck and did an excellent job. They were professional, efficient, and clearly knew their work. The process involved some digging and machinery, but they took great care to minimize any impact and left the property in much better condition than we expected. We’re very happy with the results and would absolutely recommend Diamond Tech Piles to anyone needing helical pile installation.

Very positive experience. Trevor was very responsive and polite - a real delight to work with. With his team, they drove helical piles around our existing pool for our new deck. We definitely ran into obstacles with rocks, buried cement, roots and the cement pool collar, however, they found great solutions. I have absolutely no hesitation with recommending Diamond Tech Piles - they are great!

Trevor and Zee installed 4 SP3 helical piles for us today for a gazebo. Saved our backs versus digging concrete piers, and gave us the peace of mind with the torque reports. It was great dealing with Trevor throughout the process, especially as a first time helical pile user who had a lot of questions. Highly recommend!

The crew installed very large helical piles for us to build our cottage on. The owner Trevor was very responsive and got the job done by organizing a barg, to bring their equipment to our remote location. It was a great experience all around.

Trevor and his guys were awesome. Originally planned helical pile installation for late April, but when deck contractor schedule changed, they went above and beyond to get job done weeks sooner to assist. Thank you for your accommodation, very much appreciated!!
