Okay, I'm just daydreaming here, but I was wondering if anyone has a rough idea of what it costs to jack up a house that is approximately 25 feet by 40 feet.
Here's the daydreaming part -- I was wondering about the possibility of jacking up a house to add enough more rows of cinder block to the foundation as a way of changing a 4-foot high crawl space to an actual basement. The crawl space already has a concrete floor. The idea would be to change what is now a ranch style home into raised ranch style home, and create a whole new basement level usable area.
I was thinking about something similar with another home I own, but that one already has a basement and it seems like it would cost les to have the basement dug out a foot or so than to jack up the whole house by a foot.
