Default Crawlspace supports

I inspected a crawlspace today with many tilted cinder block supports. Many not in contact with floor joists. The crawlspace soil was not very level and much debris was present (jars, glass, bricks, weeds, ect.). What would this cost to have someone jack up the house and repair the supports.

Have buyer contact a leveling / foundation company. In Texas, we can't quote 'fixin' prices.

Not in OK but here in SC

A house I inspected needed 13 new footings poured and filled blocks installed and blocked to the joists. Buyer had me come and take pictures of the work for him (late 70's and not a crawler!) told me he paid just over 8K for the work... took almost 4 weeks of a guy working just a couple hours at a time couple days a week...
