The jacks are removed from the reinforced and raised corners and the other side is prepared for lifting. Similar actions are performed.
Return to the first two corners and lift the house until the entire frame is completely level. This is checked with a water level.
The building must be raised clockwise or counterclockwise until the entire structure is level.
Reliable supports are placed under the walls under the physician data crown along the entire perimeter of the building.
After the house is raised, it is reinforced on all sides with supports. Then the repair work necessary for this object is carried out.

Unlike a large house, a bathhouse can be lifted faster. It takes 1-2 days. In some cases, it is lifted in a few hours. The speed of work depends on experience. If you have no experience in lifting a bathhouse on jacks, a video that can be easily found on the Internet can help with this.
