Anyone with experience raising a house? My client wants to raise an old farm house in North Carolina to fit in better with a proposed addition and give more crawl space. The house is on un-mortared rock piers, with 6×6 oak sills in generally good condition, though there are a few rotten places. We want to raise it four inches and install a good stone pier foundation. Your comments are appreciated.
