RESTUMPING
Restumping is the process of jacking a house to remove existing deteriorated stumps and replacing them with a superior quality ones.
All houses are unique with different foundations and soil conditions and could therefore reveal their deterioration in diverse ways. If failed stumping is left untreated, the end result can be a partial or total collapse of the structure. Austump will be your best option providing you with a professional Restumping service.
SIGNS OF FOUNDATION PROBLEMS
Knowing whether or not your home needs restumping or relevelling services is not always immediately obvious and can be stressful. These are some signs your home might be experiencing some foundation problems:
- Soil movement
- Uneven surfaces
- Step sloping Floors
- Wall cracks
- Ceiling cracks
- Moisture/water damage
- And other issues with your floors or walls.
You might also be considering restumping in conjunction with raising, relocating, or sliding your home. Whether or not you need a partial or full restump will be evaluated by our experts who’ll give you the best approach to meet your goals.
consider your options
Stumps can be timber, steel (adjustable or galvanised), or concrete posts that sit under your house to support your foundation. Broken, cracked, or rotting stumps can cause your entire foundation to collapse. CALL US to evaluate the best option for your house.
timber Stumps
Our CCA treated timber stumps are a more traditional stumping option that can work in many soil and environmental conditions.
Steel Stumps
Restumping with steel brings advantages due to its durability and resistance. Steel is not affected by termites or rotting and with the galvanisation process it is unlikely to deteriorate due to rust.
Concrete Stumps
Concrete stumps are reinforced with internal steel rods and cast in a single mould. Being a non-flammable material, they are great choice for houses in bushfire areas.
Steel Beams & Posts
A steel beam is a structural steel product made to support heavy loads. We supply and install quality steel support beams and columns to suit the weight-bearing properties of your existing home or house renovations. We also offer steel bracing.

Dave at Austump was exceptionally friendly and professional with great communication. We’d received advice from a competitor before and it stunk of underhanded sales tactics, didn’t get any of that from Austump they were knowledgeable and acted with integrity from quote to finish.
Had absolute confidence in Dave and his team, was very happy with the work completed, and was appreciative of the additional help in getting a dependency sorted.
