We specialize in controlled moves that preserve historic homes.
Many historic homes in Louisiana carry deep cultural value, but over time, shifting soil, flooding risks, and ground movement can threaten their stability. In some cases, the best way to preserve these structures is through relocation rather than letting them deteriorate. At Hayes House Moving and Leveling, we focus on relocating historic homes with care and respect for their history.
Our team has been working in this field for many years, and we understand the planning, equipment, and step-by-step process required for safe house moving. Every project starts with a detailed evaluation of the structure, including its size, condition, and foundation type. From there, we carefully plan the move to reduce risk and protect the home during transport.
Relocating historic homes is not just about moving a structure from one place to another. It is about preserving the craftsmanship, architectural detail, and history that cannot be replaced. Which is why we take extra care to support fragile areas of the home and monitor the structure throughout the entire process.
We also understand that every home and property is different. Some moves are short distances, while others require more complex planning. No matter the situation, our goal while relocating historic homes is to do so safely while maintaining the integrity of the structure.
