Up on a hill , solid rock ridge. Hold house in place , remove foundation , add steel beams , new foundation , drainage etc.
The excavator been under there for about a month chipping with a small track hoe and a Bobcat to gain the "extra" four feet of elevation to allow for "new" ceiling height.
Quite a process!
Well it keeps life interesting eh? Holy moly I can't imagine the bill on this one!
There's a house near here that was done that way. You can tell by looking at it that something just isn't quite right.
Crimoney, PEG. That looks like a fun job. :)

You'd love it Glenn , right up your alley! I wish you where here to do the dirt work !
I love tearing things up. Quite a bit of dirt work coming up here to keep me occupied though. [ouch]
Looks like quite the project. :o
Too bad they didn't start this in the spring, this weather can't be helping any.
