Architect
Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates, Inc.
If I had known about screw-jack pedestals earlier in my career I absolutely would have put them everywhere. I like that you can create comfortable level surfaces for people right over the top of sloped surfaces designed to drain. I also like being able to hide irrigation, plumbing, and electrical services below the surface. This is much more elegant than running conduit everywhere.

We were looking for a practical and cost-effective solution to provide needed support for the exterior tiles. Based on my observation of the installation process, the pedestals were relatively easy to install and adjust, providing a consistent level finish flooring elevation.

Project Takeoffs
When you’re ready to move forward, simply email us:
- A dimensioned plan sheet for the area receiving pedestal decking
- A substrate plan sheet showing drain and ridge locations with heights
Using these, we’ll generate:
- A precise layout, takeoff, and quote
- A color-coded CAD drawing showing the height and location of each pedestal
- A height matrix, if you’re preparing your own shop drawings or estimating ranges with slope correctors
See an Example: Sunset Terrace Project
Aerial View + Project Takeoff
The Sunset Terrace, located above the pool and adjacent to the clubhouse, features porcelain pavers installed over Buzon pedestals. This project takeoff highlights pedestal planning for half pavers, door thresholds, and varying elevations across a raised terrace.
