After the storm surge from Hurricane Sandy flooded
Summary
After the storm surge from Hurricane Sandy flooded their house with five feet of water, the homeowners made the decision to elevate their house above the new flood level of 12 feet determined by New York State and FEMA. Workers install a section of a helical pile. The piles will be set at a depth of 21 feet. Steel reinforced concrete pillars will then be set on top of the piles to support the house.
