[QUOTE="Miller Time, post: 250585, member: 5354"] I ran into this situation with my buddies house a few years ago after it fell through the ice. It froze with only a few inches of water in the floor but we left it for about a month to let the ice get thicker around it. When we came back we ended up with chainsaws, air chisels, spud bars, and handy man jacks. We chipped all around the house as much as we could bring very careful not to punch through the ice or it will flood and you will be back to square one. We used the auger a lot to get under the house and make room for the handyman to sit below the level of the ice. We were able to eventually lift a few inches then block it. We repeated this until we had it on top of the ice and were able to hook onto it. We attempted to pry with the jack from the ends of the house but started to bend the frame. Once we got under the middle of the house it popped free. I can try and attach some pictures of our experience. [/QUOTE]
