Who does one call to get quotes on replacing a home foundation? I've called foundation repair places and they don't (or won't) do complete foundation replacements. New home builders won't do it unless it's new construction. General contractors don't seem too interested (they never return calls) and house movers/lifters don't do referrals. I know there are companies or people that do this, but who?!
Long story short, I've got an old house that currently has a brick foundation (with crawlspace) that is crumbling and it desperately needs replaced. It is past the stage of repointing and really past the point of repair. The house is 2" lower in the rear than the front and one section is pushed out far enough that the sill board doesn't rest on the foundation anymore. This all caused from 100 years of bad drainage and neglect.
Ideally I want to replace it with concrete block which I could do myself once the house is lifted but I'm at that point that I'd prefer to just hire it out just to get it done. I don't really want to deal with tearing the old foundation out and digging it out for footings. I know it won't be cheap but first I need to know who will do it. Surely this can't be that uncommon?
