Concrete footers benefit: Peace of Mind

Bigfoot Systems® are plastic footing forms used as pier footings with sono tubes. Engineered design ensures greatly increased stability, safety and convenience. By using the natural laws of physics to evenly distribute the entire load's weight, the footing is solidly secured to the earth.

Bigfoot delivers peace of mind to families and businesses in areas subject to hurricanes by acting as anchors and preventing uplift.

Construction footing form benefit: Bigfoot delivers savings

We say with confidence, "Bigfoot Systems® Footing Forms are the best value for your money!" And here's why: With one-day installation and one-easy pour to complete the footing, Bigfoot saves you time, aggravation, and hours of labour costs over the traditional wooden-box method. Only five tools are required: level, shovel, screwdriver (and four screws), tape measure and handsaw (or knife). Bigfoot is:

Simple to plumb

Easy to level

Bigfoot approval from engineer Doug Steadman

"The bell footing was developed through trial and error and proven mathematically and scientifically to provide greatly increased stability when the foundation is on suitable bearing material.

This has been extensively documented since the early 1920s and [is] now a routine part of engineering practice design."
- Doug Steadman, PEng, Texas, USA

Testimonial for Bigfoot Systems® - how to save money with Bigfoot!

"I just want to say that your footing system is great. I just mail ordered your tubes about two weeks ago [and] finally installed my four Bigfoot bases and construction tubes today.

"In less than four hours, I had all four tubes in, buried, steel reinforced, concrete filled, and the standoff column bases mounted. This would easily have taken me a day and a half without your system. The finished product is incredible."

- Brian Richey, Simi Valley, California, USA
