Services
Structural Moving
We specialize in relocating entire structures, including homes, commercial buildings, and historical landmarks. Using advanced hydraulic systems and weight-balancing technology, we ensure safe, intact transportation regardless of size, shape, or distance. Our team has moved over 250 projects, preserving architectural integrity while adapting to modern zoning or environmental requirements.
Foundation Repair
Addressing uniform and differential foundation settlement, we employ helical pilings, push piers, and screw jacks to restore structural stability. Our solutions target common Florida issues like limestone cavities and organic soil decomposition, ensuring long-term durability for residential and commercial properties in flood-prone or coastal areas.
Helical Pilings
Helical pilings provide robust support for new construction or remedial work in challenging soils. Ideal for wet, sandy, or environmentally sensitive sites, these screw-like steel shafts are installed with precision equipment to transfer structural loads to stable soil layers, complying with FEMA and building code standards.
Historical Preservation
We preserve historical buildings by relocating or elevating them using non-invasive techniques. Our projects include restoring century-old churches and steeple structures, utilizing hydraulic lifts and custom rigging to maintain original materials and architectural details during transport or stabilization.
House Elevation
Elevating homes above flood zones protects properties from water damage. We use calibrated lifting systems to raise structures safely, enabling garage additions or compliance with insurance/FEMA requirements. Our team has completed hundreds of elevation projects across Floridas hurricane-prone regions.
