House releveling and bracing
Whether you’re restumping or raising, the structure and foundations have to be prioritised at every step. We relevel and brace homes to improve their structural integrity for the long haul.
House releveling
When a house’s stumps begin to deteriorate, the floor above them follows. Sections drop, the surface distorts, and what started as a slight slope in the hallway becomes doors that won’t close and gaps at the skirting.
If that’s happened to your home, you may need more than a straight stump swap. While the house is up for restumping, our specialists can relevel the floor structure at the same time — evening out and repairing the surface beneath so the whole thing sits true again.
House bracing
For a house to stay stable after it’s raised, structural steel beams are sometimes needed to provide additional bracing and support. Bracing does two things: it guarantees the building’s structural integrity once it’s lifted, and it lets you move back in sooner.
We provide professional house bracing to support your home’s structure and keep you comfortable and safe while the work is going on around you.
Other things we do
House restumping
Removing and replacing failed timber or concrete stumps, then setting the house back down level on new footings.
House raising
Lifting a home permanently to build in underneath, get clear of flood levels, or add height and value.
House sliding and on-site moving
Repositioning a house on its own block — shifting it back, forward or sideways to open up the site.
Structural steel beams
Steel bearers, posts and portal frames for open spans underneath and long-term structural support.
Dig-outs and small excavations
Tight-access earthworks — trenching for footings, digging out under-house space and preparing sites.
