Restumping, Underpinning & Reblocking in Richmond

Why Richmond homes move

Richmond sits on reactive clay near the Yarra, and its lower streets toward the river hold moisture that rots timber stumps. Combined with more than a century of seasonal movement, that leaves many Richmond floors sloping and bouncing.

The homes we work on in Richmond

Richmond is dominated by single- and double-fronted Victorian terraces and cottages, almost all on original timber stumps well over a century old. Those stumps are long overdue, and damp-driven rot is common.

Local to Richmond

From the terraces off Bridge Road and Swan Street to the cottages near the river flats, we restump heritage homes across Richmond. We are set up for tight inner-city sites where access, not just the stump count, is the challenge.
