Can you rotate a house?

Yes, in many cases a house can be rotated without moving it off the property. This may be done to make better use of sunlight, improve the view or adapt the building to new conditions on or around the property.

With the right methods, we can rotate the house in a controlled manner and position it exactly where you want it. This can involve anything from just a few degrees to a full rotation.

Rotating a house or other building requires careful planning, the right equipment and a clear method to ensure the work is carried out safely.

How we work

Initial consultation

Without going round in circles, we start with an initial meeting to discuss your planned house rotation. The meeting can take place via Teams, phone or whatever works best for you. We discuss what you want to achieve and the conditions for the project.

Before the meeting, feel free to send us photos or videos of the building, along with information about the type of house, foundation and surroundings. This gives us a clear picture of the project from the start.

After the meeting, we'll provide an initial cost estimate for rotating your house.
Important information includes:

Type of building
How far the house needs to be rotated
Ground conditions and foundation
Accessibility around the building

This gives us the information we need to determine the right method for your house rotation.

Planning and quotation

Once you decide to move forward, we schedule a site visit. We take a closer look at the house, the ground conditions and the site to determine exactly what is required.

Based on this, we develop a plan for how the house rotation will be carried out. We also determine whether other specialists need to be involved, for example for electricity, water and sewage, and whether any permits are required.

We take overall responsibility for the solution and coordinate with the contractors involved. You'll receive a clear, free quotation outlining the method, schedule and scope of the project.

Execution

Once the project begins, we lift the building and place it on a system that allows the house to be rotated in a controlled manner. The method we use depends on the building itself and the surrounding conditions.

Depending on the situation, the house can be:

rotated on sliding beams
rotated using a trailer
