Frequently Asked Questions

How high can you lift a house?

In most cases, homes can be raised anywhere from a few inches to several feet, depending on the project goals. The exact height is determined by foundation needs, local codes, and soil conditions. Our hydraulic systems allow for precise, controlled lifts for all structure sizes.

Can I stay in my home while it’s being lifted?

No. For safety reasons, homeowners must vacate during the lifting and foundation work process. However, we work efficiently to minimize downtime and help you plan for a smooth, temporary relocation during your project.
