House restumping
If you need professional house restumping in Ipswich or Fernvale, look no further than Deano’s Restumping & House Raising.
Does your house need restumping?
Your house’s stability hinges on the strength of its foundation, and the condition of its stumps is crucial. Stumps don’t just carry the load — they’re also the first line of defence against water damage, which matters a great deal if your property sits in a flood-prone part of the Brisbane Valley.
Neglecting deteriorating stumps leads to structural problems that get more expensive the longer they’re left. Our expertise in stump repairs and stump replacement keeps your property safe and sturdy, and stops small movement becoming a big bill.
Don’t wait until it’s too late. Restumping is one of the few jobs on a house where acting early genuinely costs less than acting late.
Signs it’s time
Stumps rarely fail all at once. They give you warnings first, usually upstairs where you live rather than underneath where they are.
- Slanted, drooping or uneven floors
- Doors and windows that stick or won’t latch
- Cracks opening up in walls and cornices
- Splitting, rot or crumbling in the stumps themselves
- Repeated exposure to flood water
- Termites or white ants in the timber
