Basement dug under an existing house

This 140 years old house was lifted from its' crumbling old foundation and supported while the earth was removed from under it.  After the excavation phase was complete, a new eight feet tall poured wall was installed under the house.  In addition to creating a stable and level foundation, the customer gained 1,320 square feet of usable living space.

This is an end view of the house during the initial stage of the of the excavation phase. A front end loader was driven under the house and used to remove the dirt and existing rubble foundation.
