HOUSE REBLOCKING & RESTUMPING MONTROSE

Stumps are pillars set beneath the foundation of a home, on which a home rests. The process of removing and replacing old tiber stumps with new, more sturdy concrete stumps is referred to a reblocking or restumping.

If you have an older home that rest upon old wooden stumps, they will eventually need to be replaced with concrete stumps. Homes built with weatherboard, brick veneer, or solid brick commonly need wooden stump replacement. Contact our Montrose restumping experts to receive a free quote.

Signs that stumps will need replacing include the cracking of walls, both interior and exterior, and windows or doors that suddenly will not close properly.

There are several possible factors that can cause wooden stumps to lose their stability. The most common is rot from long term exposure to damp and wet conditions. Termites can also cause the wooden stumps to rot and give way.

Lastly, there are occasions when the earth beneath a home sinks, causing the stumps to become unstable.
