Q - How much will my job cost?
A - Since no two houses are alike, every job will be priced differently. The price differs with the size of the house or building, the area and what the job consists of ( Moving, Raising, Rigging E.T.C ).
Q - Is it possible to move or raise my house or building?
As long as the structure is self supporting(meaning the structure is still supporting its own weight), it is movable.
Q - Is there a limitation on how far you can move or raise my home?
A - At Dawn, there are no physical limitations but utility wires such as Cablevision, Verizon, L.I.P.A E.T.C must be removed if the structure is over height limitations. The width and length of the structure can also make a house move difficult.
Q - Do you supply the permits or do I need to obtain them?
