Wolfe Lifts 7,800-sq-ft Warehouse Roof
Wolfe House Movers lifted a 7,800-sq-ft warehouse roof, using Buckingham tower jacks to lift the roof over 18' above its original elevation. When the roof was lifted, Wolfe supported it in place while the exterior walls and support columns were extended up to it. The lift added a story of additional clearance to the building's interior.

    SO GLAD to see this! I'm from Virginia Beach and often saw 'Sequoia' on the Elizabeth River and at Atlantic Yacht Basin in Chesapeake. I was on hand for the 'after rebuild party' in the late 1980's, saw her again under Norshipco ownership in the late 1990's and most recently when I took my nephew to Atlantic Yacht Basin to see this sad, forlorn and forgotten bit of our History. Now the rescue from the clutches of death in Deltaville.

One said he'd do it for 20k. The other 32k. That does not include the costs of moving electrical wires over the road. But it will include them actually installing the house on my property.
