Foundation underpinning is a proven process designed to stabilise and reinforce existing building foundations, ensuring long-term structural integrity. Over time, factors such as soil movement, increased loadings, nearby construction or changes in use can undermine a foundation’s ability to perform. Underpinning addresses these issues by excavating beneath the existing footing, installing additional support and redistributing the building’s weight onto more stable ground. The result is a safer, more secure structure that protects your investment and gives you peace of mind.
Restumping is the process of replacing the existing support stumps beneath a building to restore its strength and stability. Over time, timber or other stumps can rot, shift, or deteriorate due to soil movement and moisture, leading to uneven floors, cracked walls, and structural issues. Our skilled team uses precision hydraulic jacks to carefully lift and level your home before installing new, durable concrete or steel stumps. Each section is replaced methodically to ensure maximum safety and lasting support, giving your property a solid foundation for decades to come.
Jack and pack relevelling is an effective solution for correcting uneven floors by carefully lifting and re-supporting the structure beneath. Over time, floors may settle and become unlevel due to ground movement, water damage, or poor initial construction. Our experienced team uses precision hydraulic jacks to gently raise the affected areas and then pack the stumps beneath with engineered plastic packers to stabilise and secure the floor at the correct height. This gradual, controlled process restores balance, improves comfort, and enhances the safety and longevity of your property.
Whether you’re assessing an existing structure or buying a property through real estate, our foundation consultation service offers expert inspection and guidance to protect your investment. We perform a thorough on-site assessment of your building’s foundation system, evaluate soil and moisture conditions, check for signs of settlement, structural movement or deterioration, and then provide a clear, tailored recommendation backed by professional reporting and a roadmap for any required remedial action. For clients purchasing a home, our pre-purchase inspection can uncover hidden issues—such as foundation cracks, subsidence, or sub-standard supports—that might otherwise lead to costly repairs or negotiation vulnerabilities.
With our insight, you gain the confidence to proceed with your real estate transaction (or delay it) knowing the property’s structural base is sound. You also gain the opportunity to negotiate better terms, set aside a maintenance budget, or avoid a problematic purchase altogether. Every inspection is handled with care and precision, helping you save time, reduce risk and achieve peace of mind.
