Remove overhead garage doors, tear out concrete floor. Tear out asphalt <br />driveway. <br />2. Hire an experienced house moving company to support the garage walls and roof, <br />and the house walls, floors and roof in common with the garage. This would have <br />to be accomplished with all supports located outside the exterior walls and with 6 <br />feet clear in order to leave room for the over-dig and tear-out and installation of <br />new foundation. <br />3. Once the house is supported, excavate interior of garage to desired depth of new <br />garage floor and excavate driveway to new depth and grade. "-P;:',/""J) <br />4.
