Good game plan.

I releveled my old cottage myself, with the above described foundations, and it came out really well (25 years later and still good). One corner of the house came up 75mm (that's about 3") and the house was fine in regard to doors closing and other levels. So it's worth doing yourself. I had three or four small bottle jacks. the sort you jack a car up with. The house weighs very little per square meter.
