  FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS
CAN MY HOUSE BE MOVED?

Yes, almost any structure can be moved limited only by its cost effectiveness.

HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?


Every project is different. Cost is affected by site conditions, size, weight, building design and exterior height. The distance traveled doesn’t necessarily affect the cost because most of our work is in the prepping, raising, loading and unloading the building. Each project is different and the amount of time required.

SHOULD THE FOUNDATION BE READY BEFORE THE MOVE?

In most cases we recommend that the building be in place and raised so that the footings and foundation walls can be constructed only because older structures are not always perfectly square. We do it both ways if necessary.

DO YOU DO EXCAVATION AND FOUNDATION WORK?

Yes, we do excavation and backfill on foundation work or if you prefer you can hire your own contractor for this part of your project.

HOW FAR DO YOU TRAVEL FROM YOUR BASE OF OPERATION?

We have chosen to establish our offices and storage yard approximately one hour east of Ottawa in Plantagenet, Ontario to lower our operation costs in order to pass the savings to our clients. The distance we travel is only limited by cost effectiveness and project size.

WHAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?


We use the latest available equipment on the market, hydraulic pumps with multiple heads including long stem jacks. We buil our own equipment using local steel fabricating shops. Multiple articulating wheel dolly, hydraulic moving bolster beams, high weight capacity steel rollers.
We are constantly re-designing and building equipment as we are always facing new engineering challenges.

ARE YOU INSURED?

We provide comprehensive liability and structural road insurance during all moves.



WHAT OTHER SERVICES ARE REQUIRED CONCERNING A MOVE?

Police escort is required, fees vary between townships.
Local municipal permits
Local municipal signage crew assistance depending on size, weight and height of structure
