  • Foundation modernization access
  • Coordinated with your GC

A Process Designed Around Your Home

From the first site visit to the final restoration, every step is planned, permitted, and built to last

  1. 1

    Plan & Permit

    We scope the project, engage Florida-Licensed General Contractors and engineers who will coordinate permits with your local jurisdiction.

  2. 2

    Lift & Build

    The home is safely lifted so foundation and structural work can be completed on a stable, elevated platform.

  3. 3

    Lower & Restore

    Once the new foundation is cured, the home is lowered and your GC reconnects utilities, stairs, landings, and landscaping.

Built by Builders, for Florida Homeowners

Florida House Lifting was founded in 2025 by Randy Olsen and Jay Burnside to fill a critical gap in Florida’s flood-mitigation market — homeowners below the Base Flood Elevation facing rising insurance, repeated flooding, and mortgage restrictions on sale.

We deliver durable, engineered, and affordable elevation solutions that protect Florida homes for generations.

Why Lift Your Home?

Elevation does more than protect against the next storm

Reduce Flood Risk

Lift your home above the Base Flood Elevation to keep water out during the next storm or surge, and end the repair-and-claim cycle for good.

Lower Insurance Premiums

Elevated homes typically qualify for lower flood-insurance rates — often one of the fastest financial paybacks on the entire project.

Maintain Mortgage Eligibility

Bring the property into flood-zone compliance so the home can be sold, refinanced, or insured without mortgage restrictions.

Replace a Foundation

Lift the home to fully replace or modernize an aging foundation with new structural support engineered for Florida soils and storms.

Add a Floor or Living Space

Use the lift as the moment to expand — create new ground-level living space, parking, or storage under an elevated home.

Increase Property Value

An elevated, engineered home is a more sellable, more insurable, more durable Florida asset for the long run.
