This job is a great example of what House Moving in CT is really about. We were called in to move this home that needed more room in the front yard and better placement on the property. The plan was for it to be moved approximately 8 feet further sideways and 35 feet further forward. It may not sound like a tremendous distance, but remember, it’s moving a complete house. Every inch counts. At High Caliber Contracting, we’ve been doing Structural Moving in CT like this for decades, so we knew how to line it up right from the start.
Before anything moved, we took time to prep the site and set the steel beams and cribbing. This part is huge. If the base isn’t right, nothing goes right. We slid beams under the house, stacked solid wood supports, and checked every level twice. With our House-lifting CT system in place, we raised the home just enough to let it move clean and steady. No rushing. No guessing. Just slow, careful work.
Once everything was ready, we started the move. Using hydraulic equipment and rollers, we eased the house forward and sideways, little by little. One push at a time. Stop. Check. Adjust. Then move again. You could see the house slowly settle into its new spot, right where it needed to be. Even with winter weather and tough ground, the move stayed smooth from start to finish.
Jobs like this are why we love what we do. Taking a house that seems stuck and putting it exactly where the owner wants it is a great feeling. With the right crew, the right tools, and years of experience, High Caliber Contracting makes tough moves look simple.
