Foundation issues. Need advice.
Found a nice house with foundations issues. Per engineer estimate, the foundation needed to be lifted 2.5 inches. Below is the work to be done. The cost was quoted at $6k. The house has tile flooring. I'm assuming this will be damaged during the foundation lift? What else can I expect? How much buffer do I need to negotiate in price? Looking for advice from those who have done this before. Thanks BP!
