Looking After Your Biggest Investment
Reblocking, restumping or underpinning is important in keeping your floor level and maintaining the structural integrity of your home. With a commercial property it's important to look after an investment, or business property such as a child care centre, primary school or other business building.
Re-stumping involves replacing wooden stumps that have deteriorated over time with stronger cement stumps and concrete support that will eliminate many of the issues of having an uneven floor structure. This may include partial or full stump replacement.
Indications That Your Home May Need Reblocking, Restumping or Underpinning
- Doors that stick or won’t close properly
- Floors that creak or bounce or slope
- Cracks or gaps in walls or skirting
- Roof lines that appear as if sagging
- Decks and balconies that lean or slope away from your home
- Uneven gutters
- Down pipes that are no longer straight
- Existing wooden stumps appear to be rotten or defective
Adding Value To Your Home
There is nothing worse that a sticking door or a door that doesn’t close properly or you notice a bounce in your floorboards. This is an early sign that your floor foundation is in need of repair.
There are many factors that cause instability with the subfloor area of your home including flooding, a change in soil structure or rotten stumps. In the Greater Geelong area many older homes have wooden stumps and this is the most common reason why reblocking is essential.
Reblocking your home will add value to your home if you’re thinking of selling and give you a big tick with any building inspection.
