Wondering what contractors on this forum would estimate (ballpark, obviously) for the cost of repairing the foundation in the house I live in.
It's located in Portland, OR and was constructed in 1979.
It's on telephone pole-like stilts over a steep hillside near a railroad track and the poles are driven into the ground with concrete pilings, I believe.
Anyhow, the wood started to rot and the entire house has shifted so much that most of the doors do not close or fit in the door frames at all anymore. There are also large cracks in the walls, particularly around the door frames throughout both levels of the house.
I have included some photos to help visualize the house and the current situation.
