HBHR has earned a reputation of NOT being pushy. We are flexible and will work with you in many capacities of your project. While we can project manage, we more frequently work for the homeowner’s General Contractor as their lifter, demolition crew, helical pile installer and/or masonry contractor. We regularly co-manage alongside our many experienced GCs, because we are conducting most of the heavier construction service scope. Let our team know how we may best serve you.

The “Hale” family of companies has been serving New Jersey since circa 1946, under the trade name Hale Crest, Hale Built and Hale Built House Raising (HBHR). Glen G. Hale, recently passed the Hale Built trademark H-Truss logo onto Tim Ferguson, the now owner of the building lifting and moving division. HBHR is a family oriented company, hiring local legal workers and veterans, of which 3 of the current 14 field workers are former military. Mr. Ferguson’s family has resided in Brick since 1953 and on Long Beach Island since 1971.

Customer Testimonials:

Dear Tim, Carlos and Crew, Thank you for the beautiful job you did on my new foundation and lift. Both during demolition and construction, your crews were very polite, professional and kept the job site neat and clean. And special Kudos to the house-raising crew that took a couple minutes to take a picture with us! I highly recommend Hale Built for anyone looking for a honest and trustworthy company. Thanks again! Joanne M. Dimmick -Toms River, NJ

The experience we had with Hale was fantastic, greatly attributed to your staff's knowledge and tenacity. Please feel free to use us as a reference as we were totally impressed by the precision in which you lifted our house. To only have a couple of truly minor issues like a small crack above a door and a couple of doors needing adjustment was remarkable. We were amazed at the success of the lift. Your staff was impressive, polite and thorough. You gained our confidence from the moment we met. Trusting someone to lift your home with its lifetime of possessions and memories is overwhelming. Hale made it just another step in recovery. We are back in our home in Lavallette and will never worry again during a storm. Thank you, Judith Leblien -Lavalette, NJ

Before my wife and I raised our home we did extensive research into house raising companies. We spoke with several homeowners who used Hale Built and they were all very satisfied. Tim and Carlos and the entire staff were a pleasure to work with. The crew will help you navigate the entire process from start to finish. I usually don't write reviews but Hale Built deserves one. Do your research and you will come to the same conclusion that we did, Hale Built is the best choice you can make. Thanks Folks, Bob Kumpf -Toms River, NJ
