Reblocking Indented Head

  • July 21, 2018

One of the questions we often get asked at Total Underpinning is: what is reblocking? Is there a difference between reblocking and restumping? The answer is they are one in the same. Reblocking is the process of replacing old material stumps on a house that uses subfloors as a basis for its building foundations, with new, enhanced stumps. As these stumps are placed in sets called blocks, the terms reblocking and reblocking are often used synonymously.

Soil conditions vary widely across Australia. Wear and tear over generations can and does cause structural damage to residential and industrial properties. Oftne, it’s only after cracks start appearing in walls and cupboard doors don’t close properly that you know you’re in for an expensive repair job.

Reblocking has a best-practice set of components you need to understand in order to get the full view of what it is.

  1. Reblocking insurance. You may be able to recoup much of the cost simply by having a robust home and contents insurance policy.
  2. Reblocking inspection. Before you engage a full reblocking team in Indented Head, a visual inspection of the stumps is best advised. This occurs by digging 100mm into the top soil next to the stumps, and testing appropriately. As a result of this inspection, you should be able to determine if you need a complete rehaul of your stumps or just a reblocking reset.
  3. Reblocking process. Next, a highly qualified reblocking team of engineers and reblocking tradespeople will replace the actual stumps. These will be either wood, concrete or steel, and may have decayed significantly. Most modern reblocking practices recommend you use concrete or steel to ensure maximum lasting.
  4. Reblocking report. Any professional reblocking services in Indented Head will provide a final report after the reblocking is complete. This is your guarantee against any new restumping needing to be done for at least 25 years.
