Re-Stumping Services in Stanmore
Replace Failing Stumps. Stop Floor Movement. Safeguard Your Home.
Stanmore is full of charming terraces, semis and period homes—but underneath many of them are ageing timber stumps that no longer do their job.
If your floors slope, creak, or bounce, or if your walls are cracking, your house may need re-stumping in Stanmore. Our team delivers lasting structural repairs designed specifically for Inner West homes.
What Is Re-Stumping, and Do You Need It?
Re-stumping is the process of removing the damaged or deteriorated stumps beneath your home and replacing them with new supports made from engineered concrete or galvanised steel. This process lifts sagging floors, stops movement and helps prevent serious structural issues in the long run.
Why Stanmore homes often need re-stumping:
- Timber stumps have rotted over decades due to moisture or pests
- Reactive clay soil beneath homes has shifted the subfloor
- Old renovations or extensions weren’t properly supported
- Tree roots or poor drainage have disturbed foundations
- Heritage homes were never built with modern load requirements in mind
If your home hasn’t been re-stumped in 50+ years, there’s a good chance it’s overdue.
Signs Your Stanmore Home May Need Re-Stumping
We regularly see the following issues in homes across Stanmore:
- Uneven or bouncy floors
- Doors that won’t close or open smoothly
- Cracks forming in plaster, tiles or brickwork

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.

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.

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.
