House Levelling in Haberfield
Federation Foundations. Garden Blocks. Lasting Structural Repairs.
Haberfield is known for its charming Federation homes, wide leafy streets, and solid brick construction—but beneath the surface, many homes are showing signs of age and soil movement. Reactive clay, deteriorating footings, and poor drainage can lead to cracks, sloping floors, and structural stress.
At Sydney House Levelling, we bring over 20 years of experience restoring stability to heritage and contemporary homes across Haberfield and the Inner West. Whether you’re dealing with timber stumps that have shifted or footings that have sunk, we o
Why Haberfield Homes Need Levelling
Federation and early 20th-century homes dominate Haberfield, many built on timber or brick piers that are now nearing the end of their lifespan. When combined with highly reactive soil and large gardens (which encourage tree root intrusion and drainage issues), structural movement is common.
Common causes include:
- Timber stump rot or termite damage
- Expansive clay soil drying and swelling
- Shallow or failing footings in original builds
- Tree roots interfering with foundations
- Plumbing leaks or poor stormwater runoff
Without treatment, minor issues can become major structural problems.

Signs Your Haberfield Home May Be Moving
- Uneven or springy floors
- Internal or external wall cracks
- Doors and windows sticking or misaligned
- Gaps between walls, cornices, or skirting
- Cracking in render or brickwork
- Sagging verandahs or steps
💡 These signs are more than cosmetic—get them checked before damage spreads.

House Relevelling Specialists
Old or damaged timber stumps can shift over time, causing floors to dip and frames to twist. We remove failing stumps and install strong, modern replacements—ensuring your home is safely supported and structurally sound for decades to come.
Re-Stumping
When foundations are no longer strong enough to support your home, underpinning adds the reinforcement needed to stabilise and secure your property. We use engineered solutions to extend your footing into stable soil and stop further movement.
Underpinning
For lighter structures or concrete slabs, resin injection is a fast, non-invasive way to stabilise sunken ground. This method lifts and strengthens foundations by injecting an expanding resin that fills gaps under the home—ideal for driveways, patios, and parts of the house affected by soft or shifting soil.
