Move & Lift Houses

Move & Lift Houses

Sometimes homeowners need to move or lift their homes. Living on the Outer Banks with a very active hurricane season, it’s not uncommon for homes to flood. Many older homes do not sit above flood height and this can cause concern, especially when hurricane season is upon us. As a result, these homes will need to be lifted. House lifting involves raising the home above its existing foundation and building a new foundation underneath. However, natural disasters aren’t the only reason homeowners decide to lift their homes—sometimes they just want to add more crawl space or they might want to create an outdoor living area. Additionally, there are times when a house needs to be relocated, either for property or personal reasons.
