Underpinning & Reblocking FAQs

Explore our FAQ section for quick answers on underpinning and reblocking, ensuring you’re informed every step of the way.

Signs that your property might need underpinning include visible cracks in the walls, especially around frames of doors and windows, doors or windows that stick or won’t close properly, and noticeable sinking or uneven floors. If you observe any of these issues, it’s crucial to consult with a professional as soon as possible.

Reblocking and restumping refer to the same process, which involves replacing old or damaged stumps under a house with new ones. Although the terminology varies regionally, both aim to ensure the stability and level of the property.

Concrete stumps are preferred for their durability and resistance to pests, and galvanised steel stumps, which offer additional strength and longevity, are commonly used for reblocking or restumping.

The duration of an underpinning project depends on the extent of the work required and the size of the property. Small to medium projects may take less than a week, while larger, more complex projects can take several weeks to complete.

Whether you can remain in your home depends on the project’s scope. It might be safe to stay for minor works, but it may be safer to relocate temporarily for extensive underpinning or reblocking involving significant structural changes. Your service provider will advise you based on the specific details of your project.

Factors that affect the cost are property size, the condition of the existing stumps, access difficulties, and the materials chosen for the project. It is best to get a detailed quote for an accurate estimate —we’re here to help.

Understanding the Costs of Foundation Repairs in Melbourne

Foundation repairs, including underpinning, restumping, and reblocking, are critical to maintaining your home’s structural integrity. However, the costs can be influenced by several factors. Here, we break down the general costs and influencing factors for each service in Melbourne to give you a better understanding of what to expect.

Underpinning Costs in Melbourne

The cost of underpinning in Melbourne typically ranges from $5,000 to $35,000. The cost can be attributed to factors like the size of the area or property, the severity of the foundation damage, the depth of underpinning required, and access to the property. Complex cases, especially those requiring extensive excavation or dealing with significant structural issues, may drive costs higher.

Restumping Costs in Melbourne

Melbourne’s restructuring or reblocking costs are generally between $4,000 and $20,000. This variance is mainly due to the number of stumps that need replacing, the choice between concrete or steel stumps, and the overall accessibility of the house’s foundation. Older homes with difficult access or requiring additional levelling might incur higher expenses.

Reblocking Costs in Melbourne

Since these terms are used interchangeably, reblocking costs often align closely with restumping expenses. Prices fall in the same range of $4,000 to $20,000, depending on the abovementioned factors. The key determinants include the type of materials used (steel is typically more expensive), the total number of stumps replaced, and any additional work such as floor levelling or solving moisture problems.

Several factors influence the cost of underpinning, restumping, or reblocking in Melbourne, including:

  • The extent of Damage: More extensive damage or deterioration requires more work, increasing costs.
  • Property Size: Larger properties with more foundation area to cover will naturally incur higher costs.
  • Material Choices: The choice between concrete, timber, and steel stumps affects the price, with steel often being the most expensive but offering more outstanding durability.
  • Access: Restricted access to the property or difficult-to-reach areas can make the job more challenging, thus increasing labour hours and costs.
  • Additional Repairs: Sometimes, correcting foundational issues uncovers other problems, such as plumbing leaks or electrical issues, which require additional repairs and can increase overall costs.

Homeowners need to get multiple quotes from reputable service providers to understand the costs involved in their situation better. Remember that choosing the cheapest quote isn’t always the best option, as expertise, experience, and quality of materials play crucial roles in the longevity and success of foundation repairs.

You will need a permit from your local council to undertake these works as they involve significant structural changes to your property. A professional service will usually manage the permit application process for you.

Choosing the right provider involves checking their credentials, experience, and references. Choose experts with a solid track record in similar projects, and don’t hesitate to ask for before-and-after pictures of their work and testimonials from previous clients. See to it that the contractors are licensed and insured to carry out such works in Melbourne.
