Business Details
We have been serving Western New York for over 150 years with unparalleled experience in moving, raising, and stabilizing structures. Our familyowned company traces its roots back to 1867 when founder William Matthews immigrated from England to work on Erie Canal boats before pivoting to house moving. Generations of Matthews men have continued the legacy, with the current 5th and 6th generations leading operations today. We specialize in relocating entire homes, barns, and commercial buildings while preserving their integrity during transport. Our raising services lift foundations to create usable basement space or replace crawlspaces, increasing headroom and property value. Structural support projects involve installing steel beams and columns to prevent floor buckling and roof collapse in aging structures.
Leveling solutions correct uneven floors and foundations, restoring stability and preventing future settlement issues. We own stateoftheart equipment that allows us to complete complex projects safely and efficiently. Our commitment to 100% customer satisfaction drives every job, from the initial assessment through final delivery. We pride ourselves on transparent communication, detailed documentation, and adherence to industry best practices. If you have a project that requires expert handling, we welcome the opportunity to discuss how we can protect and enhance your property.
