When Would You Need House Lifting?

We employ house lifting for several reasons.  First, a house lift can enlarge the area or crawlspace under the home for purposes of storage or living. We also recommend house raising to avoid flooding. And, in many cases, homeowners will want to add a new floor to the structure permanently.

Raising your structure above the area floodplain will help protect your house or building from big storms and floods. In many cases, lifting your building can cut flood insurance premiums drastically.

Elevation Certificate for Flood Insurance

If you live in a high-risk area for flooding, in order to purchase flood insurance, the agency will more than likely, require an elevation certificate to complete the process. An elevation certificate document important features of your property to include:

• location
• flood zone
• building characteristics
• elevation of its lowest floor

This certificate essentially measures and proves your property’s susceptibility to flood damage. It’s one of the components used by your insurance agent to calculate your flood insurance premium. The document’s most important factor affecting your insurance premium will be the lowest floor elevation. Insurance companies compare this to the Base Floor Elevation for your location. The further above the BFE your lowest floor is, the less risk your home will be considered for flood damage. And, therefore, the lower your flood insurance premium should be.
