Bell Bottom piers can be the right repair or prevention method for certain parts of Houston, but not all. Dura Pier has over 40 years of experience you can rely on to help decide if Bell Bottoms are the right solution for you.
Dura Pier Foundation Repair’s Bell Bottom Pier design has advantages.
The Bell Bottom Pier Method was developed to underpin lightweight residential structures over 50 years ago. At one time, it was the only foundation repair system available and has served well over all these years. Bell Bottom Piers are a viable solution for some homeowners because of their ability to withstand the threats of potential uplift. Uplift occurs when the soil swells during the rainy season and can put pressure on the piers to move upward. The bell bottom part of the pier serves to ‘anchor’ the pier into the more stable areas of the soil.
Bell Bottom Piers are a great method for anchoring a new foundation if they are installed deep enough. A soil test can let you know how deep your piers need to be.
For many parts of Houston, Bell Bottom Piers are not the right solution for foundation repair simply because they are not drilled deep enough. In these parts of town, we recommend our Dura Lock Piling System.

The best method has often been defined as the one that requires the least amount of maintenance. You don’t want a pier or piling system that needs re-adjustment every two or three years, leaving you with constant repair expenses inside your home. As you compare systems, keep in mind that our soil shrinks, swells and shifts with Houston’s ever-changing weather patterns. The best foundation repair method will be the one that has the best ability to resist moving with the soil.
The straighter the pilings are driven into the ground, the better the soil friction they will attain. The better the soil friction, the longer they will last.
Our DuraLock® system is the only method that actually connects and tensions each and every concrete cylinder as they are driven into the ground. This allows proper alignment to be achieved and retained, allowing the optimum amount of “soil friction” possible to be attained.
