[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just got a soft quote for digging out a foot since my basement ceiling is just under 7' tall. They said to do it to code you would have to get a french drain (6k), 4" of gravel and 4" of concrete and that the total (no underpinning) would be around 30k but that didn't include moving/replacing a structural beam with two posts that would have to be redone. Underpinning would be another 30k. These guys were reputable, from a company that normally does big (100k+) projects so I have a feeling I could get a better deal from smaller contractors. Anyone else? I would love to hear from someone who did a dig out down to the footers but not below (no underpinning).[/quote] Where are you located? I am in North Arlington just under 7'. Too bad there isn't a groupon for a dig out.[/quote] Cleveland Park, Wardman style house.[/quote]
