"Terrible experience with this company that ended up costing us more time and money. The sales people were great and on time and sent a quote very quickly. That is where the positive experiences ended. On the day of the project, the team showed up late. They couldn't complete the project that day (we asked multiple times to see the timeline of this project) and had to return after the weekend. The work failed inspection twice for "poor workmanship" according to the city inspector. The company wasn't responsive at all to us trying to get the work completed. The work that was started in November was finally finished in December and we just had our third inspection (where it finally passed) in March. I had to call to schedule the inspection myself as I waited for several weeks for the company to do so (after confirming on a call that they would schedule the inspection- they never called the inspector). I'm still waiting for someone to respond to my emails/follow up calls."

FAQs for concrete foundation raise projects in Newark, IL

On average, it takes two to seven days to physically raise your house. However, this does not include the preparation work, which is often the most lengthy process. The entire project, including preparation, obtaining permits, disconnecting utilities, and any subsequent landscaping, can take four to eight weeks. This timeline ensures everything is done safely and that your home remains structurally sound.

If proper safety protocols are not followed, raising a house can cause severe damage, as the process involves applying controlled force to the home's structure. The risks involved make it crucial to hire a skilled contractor who uses engineered methods to secure your home and prevent any harm to your household.

If your foundation shows signs of instability after raising your home, you might need to add structural support. A structural engineer can assess your foundation and recommend reinforcements to ensure your house stays stable and safe for the long term. Available support options include installing additional piers or pilings, reinforcing existing footings, or using steel beams to distribute the load more evenly.

You will need a structural engineer to assess your home before you begin. These professionals determine whether your house is suitable for lifting and identify any issues that could compromise its stability. Their expertise ensures that the project is designed correctly and all risks are managed to achieve a successful lift.
