Many people live near water, whether it be fresh water zones that are sometimes prone to floods, wetlands and natural protected areas, or low-bank sound or Oceanside properties.
In many of those cases, there is a need to move a house back from the potential high-water zones or to lift your house.
Mitigation through house lifting can also be beneficial in dealing with the potential effects of climate change including sea level rise and increased flooding.
Yes, the average cost to raise a house is not cheap, but it’s a project professionals can accomplish in just a few days.
Of course, there are plenty of factors that can increase or decrease that cost, so doing your homework can definitely help you out in the long run.
This is a big range because so many details are needed for accurate pricing of this type of project.
