THE IMPORTANCE OF RAISING AND LEVELLING
In many situations, older cottages cannot be demolished or rebuilt due to permit restrictions, especially if the property is located near the shoreline where the impact of such a project could cause further damage to the environment. In such cases, raising is the only way to enhance space, conduct foundation repairs or even add a basement to the property. In scenarios where cottages are sagging or sinking on one side, levelling prevents further damage and keeps the property protected from flood and water-related damage.
UNDERSTANDING THE PROCESS
The process for raising and levelling a house involves certain steps:
01
​Our team inserts steel beams underneath the building for support.
02
The structure is carefully raised using hydraulic jacks.
​
03
This elevation enables proper repair work to be carried out on the foundation.
04
The process allows for new additions to be implemented, such as basements or crawl spaces.
05
​Floors are levelled to prevent damage and enhance functionality.
