Welcome back to Pier Pod, the show where we dig deep into the systems, strategies, and solutions shaping the future of outdoor construction. I’m Tim with Design Builders, and today we’re shining a spotlight on something that doesn’t get talked about enough — how the tools we choose affect the people doing the work. On this episode, we’re talking about helical piers — not from the engineering angle, not from the homeowner’s view — but from the ground level. From the crew’s perspective. Because at the end of the day, it's the boots on the ground that keep every project moving. We’ll break down how switching from traditional concrete footers to helical piers is making job sites cleaner, safer, faster, and a whole lot easier on the body. If you're in the trades, run a crew, or just want to know what building smarter really looks like — this one’s for you.
