How long does it take to restump a house

An entire reblocking can be finished as quickly as 3 to 7 days depending on the size of the house but also how long it takes will depend on a number of factors, including whether you are completely or partially restumping your home.

If only a few stumps are being replaced it will take approximately one to three days.  You do not need to move out while the house is being restumped, nearly all houses do not require you to move out whilst we reblock your house. If it is needed, we will always advise you before we start work.

What Is Involved In House Restumping?

Typically, it is common for newer homes to be built with concrete or galvanized steel stumps, these are also used as replacement stumps and should last longer than wooden stumps.

If it is determined that your house requires to be restumped, your home will be slowly and gradually jacked up to the height required to remove the current stumps and replace or in some cases remove them completely.

It is important to be mindful that although house restumping or reblocking will prevent any further damage and eliminate the risk of collapses, the movement caused by jacking the house may result in some issues to doorframes, tiles, or even further cracks in walls.
