Foundation Repairs, Restumping & Underpinning
The foundation is the most critical part of your home. Over time, soil movement, moisture, or aging materials can compromise its structural integrity. At Gawthorne Builders, we specialise in restoring the solid ground your home stands on.
Restumping
Restumping involves replacing old, rotted, or settled timber stumps with durable concrete or steel alternatives to level your floors and secure your home.
Underpinning
Underpinning strengthens an existing foundation by extending it into deeper, more stable soil, typically used when cracks appear due to soil subsidence.
Foundation Repairs
We diagnose and fix issues like cracked walls, sticking doors, and uneven floors, ensuring long-term safety and structural integrity for your property.
Common Signs of Trouble
- Cracks in interior plaster or exterior brickwork
- Doors and windows that stick or won't close properly
- Uneven, sloping, or ‘bouncy’ floors
- Gaps appearing between walls and the ceiling or floor
