House Levelling in Sutherland
Federation Cottages. Clay Soil. Strong, Quiet Support Beneath Your Feet.
Nestled at the gateway to the Shire, Sutherland homes range from charming early 1900s cottages to dual occupancies and updated fibro conversions. But whether it’s old stumps, clay soil or unlevel footings—many homes here face serious foundation movement.
At
Sydney House Levelling, we restore the stability and safety of homes throughout Sutherland. With over 20 years of experience, we’ve helped local families get rid of uneven floors, cracks and subfloor problems—without the mess, delays or stress.
What We Fix in Sutherland Homes
- Sloping or sunken floors
- Wall cracks (internal plaster or external brick)
- Timber floors that bounce, creak or shift
- Doors that stick or don’t shut cleanly
- Gaps in skirting or architraves
- Termite or water-damaged stumps
Older homes in Sutherland often sit on outdated pier and beam systems, while many post-war builds have shallow or worn footings. Movement is common—but it can be fixed for good.
Signs Your Sutherland Home May Be Moving
- Diagonal cracks above windows or doors
- Floors dropping at one end or in corners
- Verandahs or steps that tilt or pull away
- Window frames out of square
- Musty smell from subfloors due to damp or poor ventilation
- Visible stump decay or sagging joists
Early repairs are easier, cheaper and prevent major structural issues later.

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.
Resin Injection
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.

FAQs for Sutherland Homeowners
Do you work on older cottages and brick veneer homes?
Yes. We specialise in repairing heritage homes, post-war builds and more modern duplexes or extensions.
What’s the soil like in Sutherland?
It varies, but a large portion of Sutherland sits on clay-rich soil which expands and contracts with weather. This leads to foundation movement.
Can you work in tight access or sloped blocks?
Absolutely. Many Sutherland blocks are on a slope—we use compact equipment and tailored methods for all property types.
