Welcome to Raised Floor Living!

The Southern Pine Council conducts a "Build to a Higher Standard" campaign, promoting the advantages of raised pier-and-beam or crawlspace foundations to Gulf Coast builders and homeowners. The campaign features regional advertising and media events that direct homeowners to raisedfloorliving.com, where they can learn more about cost savings, insurance benefits, reduced flood risk and aesthetic charm associated with raised floor homes. In addition, SPC is active in Gulf Coast rebuilding efforts, providing raised floor builder seminars, advocating improved building standards and participating in community redevelopment.

Why Build Raised?
Designers and builders who offer the raised floor option, framed with strong, durable, renewable wood, create value for themselves and the homeowner. The raised floor homeowner accrues lifelong benefits such as curb appeal, comfort, practicality and lasting value. Discover all of the raised floor advantages here. Building a wood-framed raised floor foundation compares favorably to the cost of a slab. Our construction process walks you through the raised floor basics, from soils and footings to floor framing.
