I am looking for infofmation on the easiest and safest way to raise my house a few inches. The sag is very noticable from both the outside and inside and I an guessing it has to go up 2 to 4 inches or more. I have no found any information on this at all except for some local people offering advice. I was going to take an 8×8 at the right height to put a 20 ton jack on and then slowly raise it and place new jack stands to hold it in place as well as shimming the existing 8×8’s. How fast can you raise the house? Should you raise it a little at a time, or can you raise it all in one day? What precautions should I look for? Any special formulas I need to know? Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks
