Pieux Xtreme Inc

Pieux Xtreme Inc, based at 1425 Route 116 in Danville, Quebec, manufactures and installs galvanized steel screw piles. Its site says the company was founded in 2005 and has completed thousands of foundations in Quebec and elsewhere in Canada.

The piles are advertised for residential, commercial, recreational and industrial projects, and the site lists benefits over poured concrete: no excavation, fast construction once the piles are in, and installation under existing structures. It advertises a lifetime guarantee against frost movement, and it runs a network of installers while recruiting new franchisees.

To find an installer, use the Trouvez un installateur tool on the site or call 819-839-3911. Ask for the written terms of the frost movement guarantee, the pile model and depth planned for your soil, how torque is recorded, and whether an engineer's letter is available for your municipal permit.
