What Is Restumping?

Restumping Wangaratta is a term used to describe the process of replacing the stumps that support your house. This is usually done to repair or prevent damage caused by water seepage and other environmental factors, such as termite attacks. House re-stumping is also carried out in preparation for renovations, as the floors and joists will need to be replaced. The re-stumping process involves the house being jacked up and the old wooden stumps removed, before new concrete ones are put in place. The house may also need to be levelled after this is completed, so crooked doors and windows can be corrected.

While the cost of re-stumping can be high, it is well worth the expense to protect your investment and prevent costly structural damage to your home or commercial premises. If your foundations are weakened by a lack of support, it can result in sloping floors and cracks in the walls. In addition, it is possible that your property could lose value due to the unstable structure.

A reputable restumper should be able to advise you on whether your building needs to be re-stumped. They can inspect the site and the existing stumps to ensure that the work is carried out correctly. They should also be able to provide you with a detailed quote for the entire job. This should include the price of the new stumps, as well as any other costs involved such as replacement of joists and bearers, if necessary.

You should always make sure that the restumper you hire is fully licensed and insured, as this will protect you in the event of any unforeseen circumstances during the work. You should also ask for references from past clients and try to find out as much information about the company as you can.

The going rate for re-stumping can vary, and it is important to get quotes from a number of different companies before making your decision. Some factors that can influence the cost of re-stumping include the size and complexity of the building or house, the location and accessibility of the site, and the condition of the existing stumps.
