Restumping, Underpinning & Reblocking in Abbotsford

Why Abbotsford homes move

Abbotsford sits on the alluvial flats of the Yarra, soft and variable ground with a high water table. The damp subfloors that result speed up the rot that ruins timber stumps, and the soft ground lets old footings settle unevenly.

The homes we work on in Abbotsford

Abbotsford is full of Victorian workers' cottages and terraces on original timber stumps, alongside converted industrial warehouses. Those century-old stumps are long overdue, and damp-driven rot is common near the river.

Local to Abbotsford

From the streets near the Abbotsford Convent and Victoria Street to the cottages by the Collingwood Children's Farm and the river, we restump period homes across the suburb, working within the tight setbacks that are normal for Abbotsford.
