Residential and Specialty Piling
Ebsary Foundation Co. has many skilled equipment mechanics and over the years they devised a piece of equipment to aid in the installation of auger cast piling in tight quarters. The device is referred to affectionately as the "JITTERBUG" is a an adopted backhoe with the auger cast piling equipment mounted on the boom. With this device, the Company can set up and remove the equipment from a jobsite quicker than with a crane. The JITTERBUG is especially good at installing auger cast piling for residences or any other location where it is not practical to set up a crane. This is one more example of the innovation employed by the Ebsary Foundation Co. to solve complex construction problems.

After the installation of the pilings, the house was lowered onto the new foundation.
