I recently purchased a 30 year old house on the coast. The house is currently on a crawl space, but I would like to lift the house onto pylons before I renovate and add-on. Can anyone tell me if lifting the existing 1100sqft onto pylons would be smart to do, cost effective, etc.? Or would the project be so extensive that I would be better off leveling the house and starting from scratch with a new house? Any advice is welcome.
Thanks.
