We are looking into raising our Queenslander (10m x 10m) and putting a slab under. Not looking at building under at this point, much as I would like to.
The block is slightly sloping and we may need to excavate as well as raise the house. It would be nice to dig up the back yard so we have a flatter block (they always look good) but that would mean digging up a lot of earth.
I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with raising their property and if you could share your story or any tips/traps to watch for.
Also could you recommend a house raising company and what sort of costs we might be looking at?
Any comments / suggestions most welcome.
Thanks

PS I’ve done a search here but would like more info
