Micro Piles & Geotechnical Stabilization in Nashville, TN & Surrounding Areas

What Are Micro Piles?

Micro piles are small-diameter steel shafts drilled deep into the ground and reinforced with grout. These piles transfer a structure's weight from unstable surface soils to stronger, load-bearing layers deeper below.

A micro piles foundation is an innovative, efficient solution for difficult soil conditions or tight job sites. They're often the go-to option when traditional piers don't work.

Micro piles are ideal for:

• Limited-access job sites: tight property lines, narrow backyards, and urban lots
• Weak or collapsible soil: areas with poor soil stability or shifting ground
• Hillside or slope construction: where gravity and erosion create added risk
• Commercial or historic buildings: requiring deep reinforcement without major excavation

Our team installs each pile to reach the necessary depth and capacity through precision micropile drilling. The result? Durable, long-lasting structural support with minimal impact on your property.

Slope Stabilization with Tiebacks

Hillside properties and homes near failing retaining walls face serious risks. Just one heavy rain or shift in groundwater can cause slopes to slide, walls to lean, and foundations to crack—threatening the entire structure.

Ground Up Foundation Repair offers slope stabilization using tieback anchors. These are long steel rods drilled into stable soil behind the wall or slope. Once tensioned, they resist lateral pressure and hold everything in place.

Tiebacks are ideal for:

• Retaining wall reinforcement
• Bowing or leaning basement walls
• Slope creep and shifting soils

These anchors are often paired with micro pile foundation systems and soil nails to create a full stabilization solution. Together, they protect both the ground and the structure, offering reliable, long-term support for residential and commercial properties.
