Our Services
With so many years in business, we can hardly count how many structures we’ve moved, leveled or bulldozed. You can count on our team to help with the following:
Moving Your Home
We’ve all seen it – a house or mobile home traveling down the road, seemingly uprooted from its original location. It’s one of those things that makes you wonder. But, moving a house or structure is an easy way to put it in a more desirable location. It is also a way to avoid what can be a costly demolition. Our company has decades of experience helping clients move their homes to new locations. Whether it’s a mobile home or a multi-story home, we use the latest technology to streamline the process.
Leveling Your Home
Have you noticed cracks in your ceiling or walls? Do your doors stick, making them difficult to open and close? Does your house look unbalanced when you look at it from the outside? If any of these questions apply to you, it’s likely your home needs to be leveled. Over time, homes naturally shift. Leveling your house involves moving it back to its original position.
Even though these fixes are relatively straightforward, it’s important to get them done quickly. If not addressed in a timely manner, the house may continue to move and create further problems. We adhere to industry guidelines to maintain the structural integrity of the structure.
Demolition of Your Home, Barn or Other Structures
Demolition is an excellent choice if you decide it’s time to say goodbye to a structure entirely. While you might have considered taking a wrecking ball to it yourself, there is a lot more to demolition than that which most people are familiar with. To begin with, it is important to obtain the necessary approvals and permits. The next step will be to ensure that the property can be demolished. This involves ensuring that all utilities have been disconnected. After the demolition is complete, the rubble will need to be removed. We will take care of the project from start to finish so you can sit back and enjoy the new open view. Trust professionals with a project like this. All of our experts have been trained in safe working practices.
Pier and Beam Foundation Repair
It is very important to repair piers and beams in order to maintain the structural integrity of your building. The foundation of your home is more complicated than you might think. When you have a pier and beam foundation it means that these are the components which are in direct contact with the ground. This type of foundation can become damaged over time as a result of settlement and moisture. The good news is that pier and beam foundation repairs are relatively easy. Contact us if you are experiencing problems. We will inspect the site thoroughly to determine the extent of the problem before making a recommendation on next steps.
Welding
Welding is a highly specialized trade. Our welders can help with things like general welding, bridge building, and equipment manufacturing.
