Frequently Asked Questions

Click below for answers to common questions:

How do Perma-Columns compare in cost to other concrete foundations? ▼

Perma-Columns provide the quickest and least expensive concrete foundation for post frame construction.

Are Perma-Columns made with standard concrete? ▼

No! Perma-Columns are poured in a controlled environment using the latest pre-casting and curing technology. Additives are incorporated to enhance strength, density, corrosion and freeze-thaw resistance, yielding a high density concrete that has a compression strength of 10,000 psi.

How do you set Perma-Columns so they are all level? ▼

Place a laser level on top of the auger head as the post holes are dug to insure that all holes are a uniform depth. For greater accuracy, backfill the bottom of the holes with tamped stone before setting posts.

Will treated wood prematurely corrode Perma-Column brackets and fasteners? ▼

Most current generation treated wood available today is designed to minimize corrosion. However, if you have a high moisture application or are concerned about corrosion, place a barrier between the treated wood and steel bracket and use stainless steel fasteners.

Do Perma-Columns need to sit on a concrete footing? ▼

It is recommended that the same size footing required for a wood support column be used for a Perma-Column. Following this process ensures proper load-bearing requirements are achieved.
