Disaster Response - Lifting & Levelling
House Lifters has the expertise and resources to respond swiftly in New Zealand or internationally, with an experienced Disaster Response Team.
We can assist with Residential and Commercial Earthquake Repairs, Flood Management/Flood Protection, and Civil Works (groundworks).
From living through the devastating Canterbury earthquakes, and from House Lifters’ continuing work in the rebuild, we understand the challenges of working in unique, challenging environments created by natural disasters.
Deeply affected by how close Christchurch came to being destroyed, Rod Moore and Stuart Moore formed House Lifters’ disaster response team. This included Registered Engineers, Licensed builders, Designers and construction industry professionals.
We’ve since helped hundreds of families and businesses back into their repaired properties, and are proud to have also saved many Heritage buildings from demolition.
Engineered Solutions
House Lifters is always working to achieve perfection. Our precision and innovation have helped earn our reputation for having the best team and equipment in New Zealand. During the Canterbury rebuild, House Lifters saw the need for vastly improved Lifting, Sliding and Levelling equipment... We commissioned a team of Engineers to custom-design our kit.
Our ingenious Mechanical Jacking systems are now recognised internationally for pin-point accuracy. They’re also much faster to use - extremely important if there are many damaged buildings needing repairs.
- Computer-controlled, Mechanical Jacking; synchronised, pump-operated Hydraulic design
- Uniform Lifting & Levelling pressure in all Jacks: loads spread evenly around the full system
- Internal Lifting Beams for Slab Levelling
