Two teams of engineers race against the clock to relocate two fragile mansions. The odds are stacked against them as they attempt to relocate the 150-year-old three-storey Varsity Hall to a new lot in Charlottesville, Virginia. The bricks are disintegrating, the walls are creeping away from the floors, and the woodwork has been eaten by termites.
On Vancouver Island, Darren and Tanya Daigle along with their four kids and Nova the dog visit a housing lot in search of a brand new home. After much deliberation, they buy a stunning nine-bedroom, three storey Victorian mansion. It’s down to heavy hauling brothers Jeremy and Alan Nickel to deliver the house to their farm. Crammed with precious features, will the Daigle’s dream home survive an epic 190 mile journey by land and ocean intact?

Wow, you can buy a nice house for just $25,000 Canadian Dollars and that includes delivery. How is that worth it for the company, when the delivery must be very costly, all though they basically get these houses for free so maybe it is worth it. If I would have a plot of land near that company that sells the houses I would definitely consider buying a house from them, you can really get a good bargain. Like that family that got a huge beautiful house with 7 washrooms for only $125,000 Canadian dollars delivered, that's just amazing.

It's amazing how bad the bureaucracy is that people even think about doing this. Why the fuck not just build a newer and better house? Because permits!

This seems like a lot of work for a not-very-old building. I live in a place much older and it isn't regarded as anything special. Waste of time, but perhaps they would have been better to employ some good engineers like Mahmout from Holland. Their heavy moves are never accompanied by shouts and panic.

The varsity hall took a lot more work on reinforcement than the actual move. They should have just demolished it and rebuilt it afresh. They had the building plans
