Restumping, Underpinning & Reblocking in Hawthorn
Hawthorn holds some of Australia’s finest Victorian and Edwardian homes, and their original footings and stumps make underpinning, restumping and reblocking common here. We restump, underpin and reblock homes across Hawthorn and the wider City of Boroondara, starting with a free on-site inspection and an honest fixed quote.
Why Hawthorn homes move
Hawthorn sits on reactive clay that moves with the seasons, and its substantial period homes put heavy load on their footings. When the clay shrinks in a dry summer, the movement shows as cracking in solid brickwork.
The homes we work on in Hawthorn
Hawthorn is rich in grand Victorian and Edwardian homes, many under Boroondara heritage overlays. The brick homes typically need underpinning when they move; period weatherboards need restumping.
Local to Hawthorn
From the streets around Glenferrie Road to the homes near the Yarra, we work on Hawthorn’s period houses regularly. Getting the footing fix right matters most on these substantial heritage homes.
