Techno Metal Post vs Other Deck Footings

Traditional concrete footings are tradition for a reason: They work. But that doesn’t mean they’re efficient or ideal.

Techno  Metal Post vs Other Deck Footings

I love helping people to revitalize their outdoor living spaces, and  transform their back yards into safe havens that will be a relaxing retreat  for many years to come. An important part of that is using a solid foundation that’ll last the test of time, because even the most beautiful deck is only as strong as the foundation beneath it! That’s why I recommend Techno Metal  Post to all my clients.

Here’s a Techno Metal Post in a nutshell: A hollow galvanized steel tube tipped with a thick steel helix that is drilled straight down into the ground. They’re installed by trained pros using specially designed hydraulic machinery which does the job without ripping up your yard, mixing messy concrete, or creating huge piles of dirt to deal with.

Traditional concrete footings are  tradition for a reason: They work. But that doesn’t mean they’re efficient or ideal. Old timey hand-cranked drills work too, but why use them when you have a faster and more efficient alternative?
