Helical piles in Mays Landing, New Jersey

Mays Landing is in southern New Jersey, in the sandy Coastal Plain. The state guide cites the Geology of New Jersey overview in describing a wedge of sediments deposited since the Cretaceous, and a USGS source reports a high water table in many low areas.

Under the Uniform Construction Code, Permits Guide reports that deck footings must extend at least 36 inches below grade across most of the state. Helical piers are used for decks, solar arrays, house raising and limited-access footings, and your municipal building department can confirm requirements for your address.
