Advisory Base Flood Maps

FEMA has created Advisory Base Flood Elevations (ABFEs) to show a more current picture of flood risk for several communities in New Jersey and New York affected by Hurricane Sandy. The known flood risk has changed since the last effective community Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) as a result of the disaster, recent development in coastal and floodplain areas, or the availability of more current data. The ABFE information and related layers shown on this map for certain communities in New Jersey and New York can serve as a guide to understanding current coastal flood hazard conditions and higher elevations that communities should build to in order to reduce impacts of future flood events. View our dedicated FEMA page for information that could save your house.

Cost to Raise a House in NJ

Many factors are required for firm pricing, which include, FEMA elevation and zone. This will let us know what type of foundation is required. For example a V zone requires pilings, so a block foundation will not work in this situation. To raise a NJ house on to pilings we need to be able to temporarily store your home out of the way to allow a crane to come in to pound in wood pilings. If that is not possible due to space being limited, your home can still be raised, but the process get’s a little more complicated and costly. In this case we would need to use helical piles in lieu of conventional wood pilings. Learn more about the cost to raise a house in NJ.
