New house I am moving into is built on rock. About half the basement is at a normal height. The rest of the basement is sloped up. Part of it has a brick wall around it, as though it was the foundation. The other part is stepped towards the one wall. The rock is granite. Would it be as simple as breaking the rock up by cutting into it and breaking it apart? Is there a risk of the house collapsing?
I am thinking that hen it comes to remove the brick wall, I will hire an engineer and contractor to ensure the proper supports are done right.
