  2. About Us • If you have noticed that your floors and windows are no longer at the same level, it is important to hire a professional restumping service. This is because it will prevent incurring unnecessary costs and avoid any type of damage. • In Australia, many homes are built on stumps made out of timber wood. These stumps can last for years but can also become weak over time if they are not cared for properly. Other factors like soil erosion and termite infestation can also cause your house’s foundations to deteriorate. This means that they will no longer be able to provide the support necessary to keep your house standing straight and sturdy. Ultimately, this will result in a loss of balance within your home. • Watch out for these alarming signs that indicate your house requires restumping:

  4. 01. Visibly Decaying Stumps 02. MisalignedWindows& Doors Regular inspections are essential to prevent damage from recurring, as well as to spot problems early. Damaged stumps can cause further damage to the structure of a home, so it is important to catch any issues while they are still manageable. If you’ve ever noticed a screeching sound when your front door or window opens, or a feeling like something’s off with its alignment then chances are you have poorly-aligned stumps. A professional home stumping contractor can thoroughly inspect the condition of your house stumps and suggest restumping if necessary.

  5. 03.UnevenFlooring When you feel as if you are moving uphill or downhill while walking on the floor, know that the stumps have started to rot. The uneven or slanted flooring says a lot about the failing foundations of your home. To check, you can try rolling a marble on the floor and observe how it rolls. The irregular movement indicates it’s time to hire a trusted house restumping expert and fix the stumps to save the entire structure from collapsing. 04. Appearance Of Pinholes When the stumps of your house begin to weaken and deteriorate, tiny pinholes start to appear on the connected areas. These pinholes are a telltale sign that the stumps need to be replaced in order to secure the foundation and structure of your home.

  6. 05.DampnessAroundTheFoundation A rotting or damaged wooden foundation may lead to considerable damage to your home. Constant exposure to moisture makes your foundation stumps prone to damage. Damp or moist timber stumps attract termites as they feed on them. As a result, they cause irreversible damage to your wooden stumps. When you are left with a hollow foundation underneath your home, the only workable remedy that can save your home is to go for house restumping as soon as possible. 06. CracksInTheWalls When cracks start appearing on different walls of your home, you should immediately inspect the floors for unevenness. This is a clear indication of failing stumps. For further confirmation, don’t hesitate to call the experts and have your stumps thoroughly inspected before the problem escalates.

  7. 07. Post-FloodStumpDamage If you notice that there is a lot of water around your house, particularly if it has been raining heavily for several days and you are worried about possible damage to your house's foundation, you should call a professional to inspect your property as soon as possible.
