Process

edit
  1. Employ a General Contractor: The client will have to hire a general contractor to take care of the preparations and steps needed to start the project.
  2. Excavate: This step provides access to the home's external subterranean wall, as well as provide an overview of the situation.
  3. Lifting: Once excavation is done, metal beams are placed under the first floor of the house, which is supported by hydraulic jacks on each side. Once the house has been lifted to six-ten inches, cribbing made of oak timber are added for safety reasons. This process is repeated till the height of the house is at the necessary level it needs to be.
