Restumping, Underpinning & Reblocking in Malvern
Malvern holds some of Melbourne's grandest period homes, and their original footings and stumps make underpinning, restumping and reblocking common across the suburb. We restump, underpin and reblock homes across Malvern and the wider City of Stonnington, starting with a free on-site inspection and an honest fixed quote.
Why Malvern homes move
Malvern sits on Silurian mudstone weathered to reactive clay. The clay moves with the seasons, and Malvern's substantial homes load their footings heavily, so when it shrinks in a dry summer the movement shows as cracking in solid brickwork and as sloping floors.
The homes we work on in Malvern
Malvern spans grand Victorian and Edwardian homes, Federation houses, California bungalows and Art Deco. The solid brick homes typically need underpinning when they move; the weatherboards and bungalows on timber stumps need restumping.

From the streets around Glenferrie Road and Malvern Gardens to the homes near Malvern station, we work on the suburb's period houses regularly. On these substantial homes, getting the footing fix right is what protects the character and the value.
