Our ground screws are a modern and cost-effective solution for creating foundations for both large and small construction projects. Our business concept is not only to provide a high quality product, but to deliver it to be installed to the highest professional standard, saving you work, time and money. Grounds screws can be used for a wide range of projects in the US, all year round and in any weather conditions.

As a first step we recommend you measure and mark the location of the deck you want to build. This will enable you to more easily visualize the decking, how it will be used, and the impact it has on the surroundings. It is also important to think about the type of furniture and other items you want to place upon the deck so that you build with the proper foundation to hold the weight.

If you are building over a lawn it is a good idea to cover this with a landscaping fabric followed by gravel to prevent the grass and weeds from poking up through the slats of the deck! The deck needs to be anchored into the ground, the wooden beams need to be supported no more than 8 feet apart in all directions. A ground screw is a much better solution than the older, heavier concrete piers or posts.

When the grid of ground screws is in place you can immediately attach the pressure-treated wooden bearers creating a frame, preferably with bolts for added strength. It is usually recommended to use at least, lumber sized 2 x 8 inches for the beams in order to have sufficient load bearing strength. It is also advisable to install a very slight slope away from the house to improve water drainage. The floor joists are then attached to the beams with screws or joist hangers 16-24 inches apart, depending on the lumber. When the floor joists are in place, you can install the deck boards.

Ground screws replace concrete posts and piers without changing any other aspect of your building design. You can plan the perfect structure or building and before starting your project, speak with Stop Digging and we can offer you an optimal solution for your foundation needs, without the hassle, mess and environmental cost of concrete.

The ground is pre-drilled for each screw to ensure the best and most accurate install, regardless of the type of soil or rock. Our equipment is light and portable and will not disrupt or do damage to the surrounding environment. The drilling does not tear up the grass, tarmac or other terrain, and after the project is completed, there is minimal clean up to do.

Our ground screws have been tested in every type of soil, and in all conditions, and are designed to last many decades into the future. We offer a 25 year warranty on every screw we sell.
