"Home Raising," also known as house lifting, involves temporarily separating a house from its foundation and raising it to build a new foundation underneath or to protect it from flooding. This process can also be used to add a new floor level or expand a basement. In a coastal community like Long Beach Island, Cannavo Building has become a go-to contractor for "Home Raising" projects
As Long Beach Island is a predominately seasonal destination, having a trusted property manager for the "what ifs" is a must. Property managers handle maintenance and repairs, ensuring the property is well-maintained and safe, protecting the value of the property and giving you peace of mind. The team at Cannavo Building is available for home checks 24/7 and we live minutes from every home we service.
"He built a new 3 car garage, outside cellar
entrance and installed laundry room on first
floor...He helped me with the plans and
drawings to get building permit. Did a great
job and built a terrific garage. Everything
was done right. I would have him work for
me again." -Richard S.
"Frank gave us an honest assessment of our
issues, coming in with solutions far cheaper
than others, and executed systematically
through the tasks. We were painting the
house at the same time he had to do the
exterior work and he worked well with the
painting team." - Peter G.
"In addition to doing quality work, the
Cannavos ensure the folks they recommend
follow-up in a timely fashion. During COVID,
we couldn’t get anyone to do our fence. We
called Frank, Jr. for a recommendation and
not only did he give a great reco, he checked
in throughout the process to make sure the
job got done in a timely fashion."-Bruce M.
“We have a family home in Spray Beach and
Frank has remodeled it continously over the
years as our family and our ideas grew! We
live outside of Philly and in Maryland so
whenever we need him, Frank prioritizes us
and checks in on the house, even in the off-
season.” -Scott S.
