Composite footings save time, cost, and weight

FootingPad® composite footings offer the strength and reliability of concrete footers without the hassle. Their lightweight design makes them simple to transport and set, while their ICC-ES certification ensures they meet or exceed the load-bearing performance required for deck projects. With faster installation, lower cost, and far less weight than concrete, FootingPad® delivers a smarter foundation solution for builders.

Installation is fast and easy

Skip the strain of hauling concrete cookies and forget the downtime that comes with curing. FootingPad® composite footings—some weighing just a single pound—are easy on your crew and install quickly using the same tools and methods you already rely on. They deliver a faster, cleaner foundation process from the moment you break ground.

  • Dig holes slightly wider than FootingPad
  • Level and compact soil at bottom of hole
  • Place FootingPad in hole, smooth side down
  • Place precast deck post on center of FootingPad
  • Backfill around post using original soil
  • Compact the soil every 12 inches as you backfill
