Signs your home needs reblocking, restumping or underpinning today

If your home shows shifting or uneven surfaces, it’s time for a professional check. Early detection protects safety and value. We focus on clear, engineering‑led advice so you can act with confidence.

Uneven floors, cracked walls, sticking doors, windows and gaps

Uneven or bouncy floors often mean settlement or failing stumps beneath the floor. Cracks in plaster or brick, especially near openings, are common early signs.

Sticking doors and windows, or visible gaps around frames, suggest differential movement. These symptoms can identify where support work is needed before further damage occurs.

Soil movement, moisture and older timber stumps

Moisture, poor drainage and reactive soils speed seasonal movement in many areas. Older timber stumps deteriorate over 20–30 years and raise the risk of localised failure.

Sinking supports, water near the subfloor and visible gaps under bearers require prompt assessment to avoid permanent damage to your foundations.

Act early to protect safety, stability and property value

Early intervention reduces risk and repair costs.
We offer calm, evidence‑based assessments and a clear fix plan.
Book an assessment today so we can identify the cause and prescribe the right solution.

Engineered solutions tailored to your home and soil conditions

Our engineered solutions match soil behaviour and building loads to restore lasting stability. We assess structure, access and local soil before recommending a tailored repair plan. This keeps work efficient and compliant.

Concrete underpinning and screw piling for lasting stability and levelling

Concrete underpinning increases bearing capacity where footings have settled. It suits shallow failures and heavy loads.

Screw piling transfers loads to deeper, more stable strata with minimal vibration. It performs well in reactive soil and speeds site levelling.

Resin injection and wall crack repairs for targeted movement and damage control

Resin injection fills voids and provides minor lift without large excavations. We pair injections with crack repairs after the cause is stabilised to prevent recurrence.

Subfloor ventilation and retaining wall support to manage moisture and lateral loads

Good ventilation controls moisture that degrades timber and corrodes metal. Retaining wall support reduces lateral pressures that can stress nearby foundation elements.

Structural engineering reports and council‑compliant certification

We specify steel or timber stumps to suit durability, budget and access. Galvanised, adjustable steel systems allow precise levelling and up to 120 mm of future tuning.

You receive an engineer’s report, drawings and council‑compliant certification so the work meets regulations and gives lasting peace of mind.

Method	Best for	Benefit
Concrete underpinning	Settled footings	Increases bearing capacity
Screw piling	Reactive soil	Deep, stable load transfer
Steel & timber stumps	Floor support	Durability and adjustability

Costs, materials and timelines: what to expect from a professional reblocking job

Transparent costs and realistic timeframes make the process less stressful and protect your budget.

Price depends on site access, excavation needs, soil behaviour and the total scope of repairs. Tight access or heavy excavation raises labour and equipment time. Reactive soil that shifts seasonally can raise complexity and cost.

What drives the price

Materials matter: galvanised steel systems cost more up front than treated timber. Steel gives faster installation, certified adjustability and longer life. Timber can be economical but will typically need replacement within years depending on moisture and termite exposure.

Typical durations and staging to keep your home liveable

Small jobs commonly finish in a few days. Larger or complex scopes run as staged visits over several weeks. We plan stages so main rooms stay usable and services remain connected.

Fast level control: steel systems allow precise levelling on the day and up to 120 mm future adjustments.
Minimal disruption: we sequence work by zone and protect finishes.
Clear schedule: we communicate expected time and milestones before we start.

Insurance, warranties and lifelong adjustability

We supply documentation for insurers and lenders when needed. Warranties cover workmanship and specified materials as listed in your quote.

Driver	Effect	What we do
Access & excavation	Affects labour & time	Plan access, use suitable plant
Soil type	Changes scope of support	Engineer design matched to soil
Stump material	Cost vs lifespan	Offer steel or timber options

Fixed‑price service and a clear variations policy keep your budget in control. For a comparison of targeted methods and materials see our guide on underpinning vs restumping. You get transparent advice, certified support and peace of mind for your foundations.

FAQ

What are the common signs my house needs foundation repair?

You should look for uneven floors, visible cracks in walls, doors or windows that stick, gaps around frames and sloping steps. These signs often point to movement from soil conditions, deteriorating timber stumps or failing footings. If you notice any of these, arrange an assessment promptly to protect safety and property value.

How do you assess whether underpinning, restumping or stumping is required?

We carry out a structural assessment that includes a visual inspection, level checks and soil evaluation. Where needed, we commission an engineer’s report to determine the cause and the right engineered solution — such as concrete underpinning, screw piles or steel stumps. That report informs a fixed‑price, council‑compliant scope of work.

How long does a typical foundation repair job take?

Duration varies with access, extent of damage and chosen materials. Small restumping jobs can be completed in days. Larger underpinning or staged works take longer. We provide realistic timelines in the fixed‑price quote and plan works to keep your home liveable with minimal disruption on the day.

What materials do you use — steel, concrete or timber — and why?

We select materials based on soil conditions, structural requirements and longevity. Steel stumps and screw piles offer durable, adjustable support. Concrete underpinning suits certain soil profiles and load needs. We may replace old timber where appropriate, but we recommend long‑term solutions like steel or concrete for lasting stability.

Will council approvals and engineering certification be handled?

Yes. We work with structural engineers and manage council‑compliant documentation. After completion, you receive engineering sign‑off and handover papers. This ensures compliance, supports insurance claims and preserves your property’s value.

Can you give a fixed quote without visiting the property?

We can provide a preliminary estimate from photos and basic information. However, a site inspection is usually required for an accurate fixed‑price quote. We recommend booking a no‑obligation structural assessment so we can assess access, soil and the full scope.

How do you control moisture and subfloor ventilation during repairs?

Managing moisture is essential. We include subfloor ventilation, damp‑proofing and retaining wall support where needed. These measures reduce lateral loads and prevent future decay in stumps and joists, improving the long‑term performance of the repair.

What warranty and aftercare do you provide?

We back our work with warranties on materials and installation. Projects include maintenance guidance and access to ongoing support. For engineered solutions, warranty terms are documented in the quote and final paperwork to give you peace of mind.

How disruptive is the work and what can we expect on the day?

We minimise disruption with organised staging and experienced crews. You may see equipment and temporary support while we lift or level sections. We clear work areas each day and maintain safe access. Our aim is efficient, tidy work with minimal impact on your household.

Do you handle insurance and structural damage claims?

We can provide reports, photographs and engineering documentation to support insurance claims. While insurers assess liability, we offer honest, compliant repairs focused on restoring safety and preventing further damage.

What differences should I expect between resin injection, crack repair and underpinning?

Resin injection is a targeted repair for wall cracks and minor movement. Crack repair stabilises localized damage. Underpinning or screw piling addresses deep foundation failure and provides whole‑house levelling. The correct technique depends on the cause identified in the structural assessment.

How do soil types in coastal and inner‑west suburbs affect the chosen solution?

Clay, sandy or reactive soils behave differently. Coastal sands need deep anchoring; heavy clay can shrink and swell with moisture. We tailor solutions to local soil conditions, using appropriate piles, footings or drainage measures to achieve permanent stability.

Are your teams licensed and insured to work on old timber homes?

Yes. Our crews are licensed and fully insured. We have decades of experience with timber‑framed and elevated homes, including careful handling of heritage features when required. Safety and compliance guide every job.

How soon should I act once I notice movement or cracking?

Act as soon as you spot changes. Early intervention limits damage, reduces repair cost and protects structural safety. We offer prompt inspections and honest advice to prioritise safety and stabilise the home quickly.

How do you ensure quality control across the job?

We follow a documented process: assessment, fixed‑price quote, engineer‑approved method, controlled execution and final sign‑off. Regular quality checks and engineer inspections during works keep standards high and deliver reliable results.
