Reblocking (also called Restumping), is the process in which the stumps that support a building's foundation, are replaced with new ones. It is typically done when the existing stumps have deteriorated or become unstable, causing issues such as sinking floors, cracked walls, and more.
Reblocking is a common practice in areas where buildings are supported by timber or concrete stumps, which are placed in the ground to provide stability and support. Over time, these stumps can decay due to moisture, termite infestation, or other factors, leading to structural problems in the building.
The new replacement stumps are usually made of concrete or steel, which provide better durability and stability. The process involves us jacking up the building to relieve the pressure on the old stumps, removing the old stumps, excavating the ground around them, and then installing the new stumps.
The process helps prevent further damage to the building, and is an important maintenance procedure that ensures the structure and safety of the building is strong.
Reblocking is a complex task that requires the expertise of professionals, like building contractors or specialized restumping companies, like us at Ideal Reblocking and Underpinning.
