Lifting our House

The largest project that we are undertaking with our house renovations is to lift our house. By lifting it we will be effectively doubling our available floor space. We have been talking to 5 different contractors about raising the house and so far the quotes have varied by about 25%! They all seem to offer us the same service, but there is a huge discrepancy in price.

When we have decided which contractor we go with to raise and restump our house we’ll post on here their details so that you have a good place to start.

New Renovation Blog

This blog is where I will be writing about the renovations that we are doing on our 1930s Queenslander. It’s our second house as we sold our other house after spending two and a half years working on it.

I am hoping that some of our experiences will help other who are also looking at doing renovations to their own home. We have had some problems finding advice here in Townsville about doing renos, so we’ll see if this helps anyone else out there.
