The Benefits

When you slide your house, you create opportunities to increase the value of your home, comply with council boundary changes or move away from hazards. Sliding allows you the freedom to undergo extensions and/or sub-dividing and create a bigger space on your lot. For instance, by sliding your house forward, you could obtain a bigger back yard, allowing you to have a larger space for entertaining, installing a tennis court or swimming pool. Alternatively, by moving your house backwards could allow for a carport out front.

WORKING CLOSELY WITH YOUR BUILDER

Meier will work with your builder to ensure we have all of the important information prior to any action; particularly, the accurate positioning of any new stumps and completed soil tests to evaluate all requirements before beginning the re-positioning.

WORKING WITH YOUR SURVEYOR

In our 30+ years of experience, we’ve found that working with a surveyor in the final stages is vital to ensuring your desired height and position on a block are clearly indicated to our team. We pride ourselves on making sure your house is perfectly positioned the first time.

OPTIONS FOR RESTUMPING

As part of the repositioning process, Meier House Removals fixes new horizontal crossbeams to reinforce the base of your home. Once your house is in its desired position, you have the choice of using our experienced team or your own builder to re-stump the structure.

Frequently asked questions

For safety reasons, the tenant cannot stay in the home throughout the process as power and plumbing will be affected.

The average house slide, spin and raise can take between 2-4 weeks from start to finish. It is extremely helpful to have clear engineering plans and soil tests to ensure your project is on time.

Cleaning up after a site is not factored into our costs but we are happy to arrange it for you if you desire.

For a seamless process, ensure you have:

  • Engineering plans
  • Soil tests – very important if we are re-stumping for you
  • Building plans
  • Form 16 – issued after a surveyor has inspected the new site
