If you were to put a new legal slab under the house after lifting it, the slab would have to be 30-cm above ground level, which is probably higher than your current slab is.

Gary from Northern House Raising did our house lift and new slab. You could probably give Gary a call and he could let you know how much it would cost to raise and restump your house as well as replacing the old slab.

I bought a QLD’er house about a year ago. It has a concrete slab under the house….. There isn’t one square foot of the slab which is level with any other part of the whole slab. The land is on a slant and the slab is on a slant.

So anyway I’d like to remove it and possibly start with a new slab and hopefully raise the house as well.

I can’t seem to find anyone who can tell me how much work is involved in taking out a slab.

The area underneath is 6 ft at the front and 5 ft at the back. I don’t know how thick the slab is but I don’t think it’s a top job. I don’t think it is that thick. Although I’m no expert.

Can I ask, was it a big job for you taking out that original slab of your’s?
