Default Cost of jacking up a house.

I am not sure what it would cost but I jacked up my friends whole house for him
over a foot higher to replace a field stone foundation with a concrete poured
foundation. The expense comes from the time it takes to actually jack the house
up. We did it very slowly a quarter inch at a time giving it time to settle
over night between jacking. So I would imagine it would be coslty to do it if
you hire someone. if you go to fast or to unevenly the walls will crack then
you got more troubles.
