Frequently asked questions

This depends on the type of building and where the building is located in the state. In most cases, after a permit is obtained the building can be moved with proper supervision and state of the art equipment. When moving a building over one-and-a-half stories high, utility wires may have to be raised which, depending on the number of wires involved, increases the price of the move. In some states, it is possible to move a house for miles. In certain highly populated areas, due to narrow roads, bridges, utility lines, trees and traffic control issues, most buildings are normally only moved a short distance.

Generally, the entire process of moving or raising a structure  and building the new foundation is completed in one or two weeks. Weather conditions, our schedule and the masonry contractor’s schedule must be taken into consideration.

  • Pre-cast concrete block and pads:  16″x16″x4″ concrete pads are placed on top of the ground with 8″x8″x16″ concrete tile dry stacked and shimmed to level.
  • Concrete piers:  An 18″ diameter hole is drilled approximately 30″ then an 8″ pad of concrete is poured and leveled with 2 1/2″ rebar extending to attach the pier.  An 8″ diameter cardboard tube is cut to grade, installed in the hole and poured with concrete to grade. The pre-cast foundation is good for a rocky non-expansive soil or a sandy soil.   This stops the soil from expanding and contracting.
