Stay High & Dry This Summer

ByEllie Crowther

The secret to a flood-free wet season!

The battle against seasonal flooding is up ahead as summer peaks around the corner!

 
As a builder, flooding affects so many aspects of your job. In order to save your clients’ home from becoming a renovation job down the line, Raise My House has the solution – elevation. Raising your clients’ home could be the make or break for summer flooding, particularly in those flood prone areas.

With temps rising and humidity looming, you’re lucky it’s not so hard to raise a house when you choose the right team!

In 6 steps, your build could be transformed to save your clients from the worst of the wet season.

  • prepare & install the structural steel underneath the house before raising
  • Raise the house which usually takes the whole day
  • machines rip out old stumps & footings & then start boring holes for the new footings.
  • new steel columns are hung over the holes in position, ready for the concrete to be poured into the house
  • Once the concrete is set, the house is let down onto the new footings.
  • bracing is installed and the posts are welded to the structural steel.
