Restumping, Underpinning & Reblocking in Rockbank
Rockbank has turned from farmland into a booming western growth suburb, and its new slab homes sit on some of the most reactive clay in the state. We restump, underpin and reblock homes across Rockbank and the wider City of Melton, starting with a free on-site inspection and an honest fixed quote.
Why Rockbank homes move
Rockbank sits on the western volcanic basalt plains, where the clay is highly reactive and often classified Class H1 or H2 under AS 2870. The strong swell-shrink cycle here can lift and drop a slab noticeably between wet and dry seasons, which is what cracks the brickwork and plaster in newer homes.
The homes we work on in Rockbank
Rockbank is almost all recent estate housing, built from about 2015 onward on concrete slabs in communities like Woodlea. On this highly reactive ground the lasting fix is underpinning or screw piles taken down past the moving clay.
Local to Rockbank
From the Woodlea town centre to the newer releases near Rockbank station and the Kororoit Creek corridor, we cover the suburb. Given how reactive the western clay is here, we frequently recommend screw piles rather than a shallow repair.
