Houses are built on stilts to help avoid flooding caused by storm surges, hurricanes and regular high tides. By raising the living space above the flood plain, stilts can significantly reduce the risk of water damage to the home's foundation, structure and interior and sometimes exterior items, such as your HVAC unit.

Stilt foundation houses can rise as high as 20 to 30 feet above sea level or 20 to 30 feet above the ground. Stilt foundations are also widely used in hilly and mountainous areas.
