What types of structures can be moved?

Basically any and all types of structures can be moved.  Wood frame, masonry, and steel buildings are more commonly relocated than say, a space capsule.  Historical buildings are usually moved for preservation purposes, while current or modern buildings are often moved for development reasons.  We've moved a variety of structures.  Check out our Unusual Moves page for some really neat pictures!

Can I build a new basement without moving my house?

Yes.  It is very common for us to raise a house for a basement to be replaced or a new built.  The house would be raised, the old foundation would be excavated, and a new foundation would be built or poured.  When the new walls are ready, the house would be lowered and set on them.

Are references available?

Yes.  References, as well as Certificates of Insurance, are available upon request.
