We are looking to buy a home here in Huntsville, AL and have found one we like. The problem for building a garage for the coach is that there is a slope where I would like to put the coach. I know we would have to grade up (moving lots of dirt in). In order to support the weight of the coach on a slab how much extra work it that going to take or is it the same as building up for a house slab? I am intending to pour a concrete slab... Any experience with this? Should we steer clear and find a flatter lot? We love this home but the coach has to be able to be part of it... I might add that the existing garage (next to where the slab will be) is raised about 6 foot at the rear for the slope...
