When building a basement under your mobile home, it’s recommended that you hire professionals for the job. This will ensure that the process is done correctly and in accordance with safety protocols. To begin, the mobile home’s skirting must be removed and all utilities should be shut off. Once this is complete, the mobile home will be lifted onto steel beams that will hold it 4 to 6 feet above ground while the basement is installed. A ramp must then be constructed using a skid steer to allow access to the area below the mobile home where the basement will be built. Once the basement is finished, all of the utilities will be reconnected.
