Larkfleet and the amazing elevating house!

It's been another busy time at Larkfleet HQ with our CEO Karl Hick appearing on BBC Radio Lincolnshire talking about the latest Larkfleet venture - The Elevating House.

So, what it's all about I hear you ask!? Well, as you know, at Larkfleet we struggle to stay still for two minutes, so it's only natural that we should come up with yet another great idea (even if we do say so ourselves!)

We present to you a house that elevates! So far, we are in the planning process with South Holland District Council and if it gives us permission, we plan to build a three-bedroom detached house in Weston Hills, near Spalding, Lincolnshire that can be raised up to 1.5 metres above ground level by eight mechanical jacks!

Karl said: "The elevating house effectively eliminates the risk of flood damage to homes so that more land across the country can be approved for future home building. This will help to tackle the 'housing crisis' that is being caused by the demand for new housing far exceeding the supply."
