1. Lifts and Holds from Black and White House Raising and Restumping
If a house becomes skewed or unlevelled, there are most likely some problems with the foundations.
The most probable culprit would be damaged stumps. In other cases, the house needs to be lifted and
re-stumped so as to put it on a higher level. This solution is viable for houses that lie on a flood prone
area.
Black and White Raising and Restumping has been specialising in restumping and house raising Brisbane,
Sunshine Coast and the Gold Coast. Backed by more than 12 years of experience in the restumping and
house raising business, Black and White offers quality service that fits the budget of homeowners.
Quality Lifts and Holds
The quality of house raising, particularly, lifts and holds, depends much on the expertise and the
technology being used. Black and White makes sure that the house is raised safely to the height that is
desired. The company uses advanced hydraulic jacks to safely lift the building to the intended height.
Upon lifting, Black and White holds the house in place using structural steel columns and beams. To
make sure that the house is held in position securely, Black and White uses only Duragal steel, which has
been tested for optimum strength and stability.
The Price Advantage
People often ask, how much to raise a house, when deciding whether or not to pursue restumping and
house raising. The project cost will depend a lot on the size of the house being lifted.
If you have a house that is small with two bedrooms, the price is in the range of $15,000 to $17.000. A
regular 3-bedroom house can cost somewhere from $18,000 to $26,000, but if it is a bigger 3-bedroom
home, it could cost from $22,000 to around $30,000. Price does not incorporate other related costs,
which include costs of plans, services disconnection and new concrete slabs.
The lift and hold costs are still considered more advantageous as you get to enjoy the better condition of
your raised home without having to spend much more for a new building. Lift and hold is also a very
good way of preserving the classic old style of a residential building, such as a Queenslander house.
