What Is Re-Stumping, and Do You Need It?


Re-stumping (also known as house relevelling or restumping) involves removing your home’s damaged or sunken support stumps and replacing them with new ones—typically made of galvanised steel or concrete. This process helps correct floor levels, restore structural integrity, and prevent further damage.


Why homes in Haberfield often need re-stumping:

  • Original timber stumps have rotted or sunk over time
  • Reactive clay soil under the property has caused movement
  • Old extensions or renovations have stressed subfloor supports
  • Brick piers or pads are cracking or shifting
  • Drainage or root issues have affected stump stability


Many homes in Haberfield were built 80–100+ years ago—often without modern foundations—making stump replacement critical to long-term stability.

Signs Your Haberfield Home May Need Re-Stumping

Look out for the following warning signs, especially if you live in a heritage or older home:


  • Floors that slope, creak, or feel spongy underfoot
  • Doors and windows that no longer close properly
  • Visible cracks in internal plaster or external brickwork
  • Gaps between floorboards and skirting
  • Signs of damp or mould under the home
  • Crumbling, leaning, or visibly deteriorated stumps



These issues worsen over time and can lead to more expensive repairs if not addressed early.

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.

Foundation Repair Services


We inspect, repair, and upgrade the beams, bearers, and joists under your home to make sure everything’s structurally sound. If you’ve noticed bouncy or noisy floors, it might be time to look beneath the surface.


Sub-Floor Works


Ventilation

Moisture trapped under your home can lead to mould, timber decay, and structural problems. We install smart sub-floor ventilation systems that keep air moving and dampness out—helping protect your investment.
