Restumping, Underpinning & Reblocking in Preston
Preston mixes Edwardian weatherboards with interwar and post-war homes, and its older stock is a classic candidate for restumping and reblocking. We restump, underpin and reblock homes across Preston and the wider City of Darebin, starting with a free on-site inspection and an honest fixed quote.
Why Preston homes move
Like the rest of Darebin, Preston sits on moderately to highly reactive clay. When the ground dries out around the edge of a house in summer, the perimeter stumps drop first, which is why Preston floors so often slope toward an outside wall.
The homes we work on in Preston
You will find Edwardian and interwar weatherboard cottages through central Preston and heavier brick homes toward Bell Street. The weatherboards are almost all on stumps, and many have never been done.
Local to Preston
From the period streets near Preston Market to the post-war pockets over toward Regent, we see the full range of Preston foundations. Homes near the old creek lines and lower ground tend to move most, and those are the ones worth checking first.
