Why Choose Our Hydraulic Push Pile System?
Abarent Construction’s proprietary system is engineered for maximum strength, precision, and long-term foundation stability.
Key Advantages:
- Tight-access installation for confined spaces
- Suitable for interior and exterior applications
- Designed for both compression and tension loads
- Concentric installation under load path (eliminates twisting forces)
- Real-time load testing during installation
- Verified performance using engineered brackets
- Supports controlled structural lifting and leveling
- Designed by an APEGA-permitted engineering firm
What Are Hydraulic Push Piles?
Hydraulic push piles (also called push piers) are deep foundation systems used to stabilize structures experiencing settlement or movement.
They consist of high-strength steel pipe sections hydraulically driven into the ground until they reach stable, load-bearing soil or bedrock. A structural bracket then connects the pile to the foundation, transferring the building load away from weak soil.
Key Functions:
- Installed using hydraulic force for precision depth control
- Transfers load to stable soil or bedrock
- Permanently stabilizes settling foundations
- Commonly used in Edmonton due to clay and freeze-thaw soil conditions
When Do You Need Hydraulic Push Piles?
You may need hydraulic push piles in Edmonton if you notice:
- Cracks in foundation walls
- Uneven or sloping floors
- Sticking doors or windows
- Foundation settlement or sinking
- Gaps between walls, floors, or ceilings
- Water intrusion linked to structural movement
Benefits of Hydraulic Push Piles
Hydraulic push piles are one of the most reliable deep foundation systems available for long-term structural stabilization.
Key Benefits:
- Effective in weak or unstable soils such as clay and fill
- Transfers load to stable soil or bedrock for permanent strength
- Resistant to freeze–thaw ground movement
- High load-bearing capacity for residential and commercial structures
- Strong resistance to lateral and dynamic forces
- Minimal disruption during installation
- Each pile is load-tested on site for verified capacity
Hydraulic push piles are a long-term structural solution—not a temporary repair. While the upfront investment may vary depending on project conditions, they help prevent significantly higher repair costs in the future.

Abarent Construction’s Proprietary Push Pile Advantages
Our hydraulic push pile system is engineered for superior performance, structural integrity, and long-term safety in demanding foundation conditions.
- Tight Access Installation – Can be installed in confined or difficult-to-reach spaces
- Versatile Placement – Suitable for both interior and exterior foundation applications
- High Load Capacity – Designed for both compression and tension loads
- Concentric Installation – Installed directly under the load path to eliminate eccentric (twisting) forces on the structure
- Load Tested During Installation – Each pile is pre-loaded and verified for capacity on site
- Engineered Reliability – Designed and reviewed by an APEGA-permitted engineering firm
- Structural Levelling Capability – Supports controlled multi-jack lifting and foundation leveling
- Certified Components – Underpinning brackets are independently 3rd party tested for performance and safety
How Are Steel Push Piles Installed?
The installation of steel push piles uses the weight of the existing structure to hydraulically advance the piles into the ground until they reach stable load-bearing soil or bedrock.
- Sectional Installation – The pile is installed in steel sections, with each section added based on the required excavation depth beneath the foundation.
- Engineered Connection System – Abarent’s pile sections use a precision-machined collar connection, ensuring a tight fit, high structural strength, and resistance to lateral or buckling movement.
- Concentric Installation Method – Piles are installed directly beneath the centerline of the load-bearing wall or foundation. This prevents eccentric (twisting) forces and ensures proper load transfer into the pile system.
How Much Does Hydraulic Push Pile Installation Cost in Edmonton?
Costs vary depending on soil conditions, structure size, and access limitations.
Average Cost Range:
- $2,000 – $4,500 per pile
- $15,000 – $60,000+ for full residential underpinning projects
Cost Factors:
- Depth required to reach stable soil or bedrock
- Number of piles needed
- Severity of settlement
- Site accessibility (interior/exterior restrictions)
- Engineering and permit requirements
Every home is unique. Final pricing is determined after an on-site engineering assessment.
