Mobile home leveling cost calculator for North Fort Myers

This calculator turns our published price ranges into an estimate for your home. Pick the home type, its length, how far out of level it feels, what you know about the piers and how easy it is to get under, then tick any extra work. The answer is a range, built from the same numbers on our pricing page. It is not a quote: we write that after we have been under the home.

How to answer the questions

Home type. A singlewide sits on two main beams. A doublewide has two halves joined at the marriage line, with piers down that line as well as under the outer beams, which is why it costs more to bring back into one plane.

Length. Longer homes have more piers to read and more to reshim. If you do not know the length, pace it off along the outside wall and pick the closest band.

How far out of level. Be honest. A door that has just started to rub is the low end. A marble that rolls across the kitchen, or a gap at a doublewide’s marriage line, is the high end. If you are not sure, our doors and windows sticking and soft floor pages help you read the signs.

Pier condition. If you have never been under the home, “no idea” is a fine answer. If you have looked from the access door and seen cracked blocks, tipped stacks or loose shims, pick the matching option.

Access. A low frame, a lot of ductwork, or water standing under the home all slow the work. On North Fort Myers ground the last one is worth a look after rain: most of the area is poorly drained flatwood sand, with the water table often within 10 to 40 inches of the surface for much of the year.

What can move the number

• Pier rebuilds. Each failed pier adds $150 to $400. Florida Rule 15C-1 calls for a pier pad of at least 4 by 16 by 16 inches of solid concrete, and a pad that sank has to be rebuilt, not reshimmed.
• Water under the home. Rule 15C-1 asks for the ground under a home to be graded so water does not collect there. If it collects under yours, fixing that may belong in the job.
• Straps and anchors. Lee County is HUD Wind Zone III, with a 110 mph design wind. If the anchors need work rather than a re-tension, tick the tie-downs box. Lee County lists tie downs among the jobs that need a Manufactured/Mobile Home/RV permit, so ask about the permit too. See tie-downs and anchors.
• Carports and add-ons. An attached carport, screen room or porch roof has supports that have to be watched while the home is lifted. Tell us about it when you send the estimate.

After you get a range

Send it to us with the quote form, and the answers come with it so you do not have to type them again. We read the frame at the piers, look at the pads and straps, and give you a written quote. If the home turns out to need pier and pad repair more than a full relevel, the quote says so. If someone else leveled the home recently and it got worse, read leveling done wrong first.
