We plan, design, and install, deep foundations for the power and utilities industry across Central Canada
When it comes to mission-critical infrastructure for hydro transmission or distribution, our friendly team has the experience and know-how to put your next project on an unfailing footing
Foundations for Hydro Utilities Transmission Infrastructure
Helical pile foundations are an excellent foundation solution for utilities transmission and distribution construction projects in Canada.
Their speed of installation, enormous load capacities, and endlessly adaptable designs, have made them a preferred foundation for many utility contractors and hydro companies.

Getting power safely and consistently from one location to another is a complex challenge that takes countless engineering solutions.
From the transmission lines that carry countless kilovolts to the substations that manage and transform our energy, we can't have a dependable electrical grid unless with have unfaltering foundations.
Helical Piles Can Be Used For...
Transmission TowersTall, relatively narrow, lightly loaded, and subject to high lateral loads. Transmission towers are a huge challenge to support. Helical piles can replace hundreds of tonnes, if not thousands, of concrete in your foundation. Outstanding capacity in uplift and tension makes them ideal for the demands of transmission line construction.
Transmission SubstationsChoosing the right foundation for a transmission substation is tough. There's range of structures to support, from electrical equipment to outbuildings and even security fencing. The adaptable nature of helical piles means they can support every component of a transmission substation.
Foundations for Hydro Utilities Distribution Infrastructure
If you're searching for a faster, less messy, less hassle, more durable foundation than concrete, you've found it. Helical piles are seeing widespread use for hydro distribution infrastructure and equipment across Canada.
From specialty technologies like bucket piles for local power lines to straightforward deep foundation solutions, helical piles are helping utility contractors and hydro companies finish projects faster and for less money.

The unique nature of helical piles means they can be used for a stunning variety of hydro distribution projects. In fact, a helical foundation can be used for virtually every aspect of utilities distribution construction.
At VersaPile, we pride ourselves on delivering value-engineered designs to the hydro distribution industry and backing them up with exceptional helical installation services.
Helical Piles Can Be Used For...
Distribution SubstationsFrom support structures like dead-end frames to critical safety equipment, helical pile foundations can be used for all aspects of distribution station construction
Local Power LinesThe front-line of power distribution is supported by local power lines (hydro poles). Special helical piles such as bucket piles can put power lines on a much stronger foundation that's resistant to damage.
Circuit BreakersThese bulky and heavy pieces of safety equipment are critical for a stable and dependable grid. Helical piles are the perfect stable, dependable foundation solution for circuit breakers.
CapacitorsWhether it's a single capacitor or an entire bank of them, odds are we have a helical foundation solution that can fit the bill.
Why Helical Piles Make Sense for Transmission & Distribution
Highly Adaptable
Whether your project is in a remote muskeg field or dense urban community, helical piles are incredibly adaptable and can be quietly installed in (practically) any location
Winter Weather Ready
Pouring concrete in winter can be expensive, time-consuming, and brings too many unknowns. Helical piles can be reliably installed in winter and loaded immediately.
Less Impact to Land
The mark that infrastructure construction leaves on the land is an important consideration. Helical piles install with no disturbance to soil or environment.
Value Engineered
Our engineering partners are skilled in designing efficient helical foundation solutions. By taking a value-engineered approach, we ensure you don't pay for more foundation than you need.
Easier Mobilization
Hauling tonnes of concrete to a job site is costly and awkward to manage. Helical piles are much more compact and lightweight, making them efficient and cost-effective to transport.
Streamlined Process
Our carefully-designed systems and processes ensure your installation is on the path to success every step of the way - from foundation design to installation.
Geotechnical Investigations
Understanding the soil conditions on your site is crucial for our team to develop an accurate and effective foundation. If you haven't conducted a soil analysis, or you'd like to double-check a previous geotech report, our team is ready to help.
Foundation Design & Engineering
Designing a sturdy, streamlined, and cost-effective helical pile foundation doesn't happen by accident. We partner with experienced engineering firms who understand helical foundations for transmission & distribution projects.
Installation & Testing
We train relentlessly to ensure your helical foundation installation process is easy, safe, and efficient. Plus, we can perform pile testing to guarantee the performance of your foundation.
Manufacturing & Fabrication
Need to go beyond "off the shelf" solutions? Our design and fabrication teams are ready to fabricate grillages, plates, or adapters, that will make the transition from your piles to the structure a breeze.
What makes our team qualified to serve as your deep foundation partner?
We're a team of people who are passionate about delivering the most streamlined foundation services that keep your projects on-time and on-budget.
We're deeply experienced in the unique challenges that come with performing foundation work in challenging conditions and locations. With a team of 25+ dedicated professionals and 4 complete installation crews, we're ready to put your project on a safe and efficient foundation.
