[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want to take down a old home and then fill in a basement and put a cement slap down and then a 3. Bedroom 2 bathroom house with a 2 1/2 car garage on here[/quote] Filling in the basement might create settlement issues for the foundation of the new house. It can be very expensive purchase suitable fill material and compact the soil every foot, then have a soil engineer test each layer to ensure it is stable enough to add more soil. It would likely cheaper or a similar cost to remodel and build a new basement. [/quote]
