Full restumping comprehensively strengthens your Melbourne home’s foundation. We replace all existing stumps, carefully excavating and removing old ones before installing new, durable stumps suited to local soil conditions. This process ensures a level, stable base, preventing future settlement issues common in Melbourne’s reactive soil.
Partial restumping addresses localised foundation issues in Melbourne homes. This targeted approach replaces only damaged stumps causing instability, ideal when full restumping isn’t necessary. It’s cost-effective for minor repairs and can also adjust your home’s height or level. Our experts assess your property to determine if partial restumping suits Melbourne’s unique soil conditions.

Restumping, often referred to as ‘reblocking’ is the process of replacing the stumps (or piers) that support a house. This becomes necessary when the existing stumps have deteriorated or shifted, causing the house to become unlevelled or unstable.
Underpinning is the process of stabilising and strengthening a foundation that has become unstable or damaged. It is typically done by excavating the soil beneath the foundation and reinforcing it with concrete.
The early signs of your house requiring restumping can be that your doors and windows will start to slightly stick. You may start to notice small cracks in your plaster around your door ways and windows. A more severe sign can be that the floors in your property will appear unlevel.
The time it takes to restump or underpin a house depends on the size of the house, the extent of the damage, and other factors. Generally, it can take from a few days to several weeks to complete the work.
Southern Stumping & Underpinning use only the highest-quality concrete and steel to ensure your foundation repair is robust and durable.
It depends on the extent of the work we need to do. In some cases, you may be able to stay home during the process, but in other cases, you may need to vacate your home. We will work with you to minimize disruption to your daily routine.

Improved safety and peace of mind: Restumping can provide an extra layer of protection for your family, as it helps to ensure the stability, safety, and longevity of your home.
A stable foundation will drastically reduce the chances of structural damage caused by shifting or unstable soil and improve support and protection for walls, floors and roofs.
Reduced risk of termite infestation: Restumping can also help to reduce the risk of a termite infestation in your home by placing new stumps treated with protective chemicals.
Increased property value: Restumping can increase the value of your property as it increases its stability and protects it from damage caused by shifting soil.
Improved energy efficiency. Restumping allows for better insulation, which in turn can reduce heating and cooling bills as it helps keep the temperature inside your home more consistent.
Also, restumping can make your home more airtight, reducing drafts and making it easier to regulate indoor air quality. This can help reduce the risk of respiratory problems and allergies in your family.
