Questions & Answers
What experience does your team have with heritage homes and bluestone foundations?
Our engineers have 40+ years combined experience working with Melbourne's heritage homes. We specialise in bluestone foundation repairs and use techniques specifically developed for period properties.
Do you service all areas of Melbourne, and how quickly can you assess foundation issues?
Yes, we service all of Melbourne, including Epping and surrounding suburbs. We offer free structural assessments within 2-3 business days of contact, with same-week emergency options available.
What is the typical cost of restumping, and how do I evaluate the three different quotes I’ve received to determine the best option for my needs?
Thanks for reaching out about your restumping quotes!
Here are a few things to keep in mind when comparing them:
1. Scope of Work: Make sure each quote gives you a clear breakdown—how many
stumps, whether they’re using concrete or steel, and if subfloor repairs or levelling are included. At Vic Metro Underpinning & Restumping, we typically use concrete stumps unless steel is necessary due to the length of the stump.
2. Reputation and Reviews: It’s always a good idea to look into each contractor’s experience and what their previous clients are saying. You can check out our Google business page for reviews from our clients.
3. Licensing and Insurance: Double-check that the contractors are licensed and insured so both you and the contractor are protected throughout the project.
4. Extra Costs: Ask about any potential extra cost, like for soil removal or subfloor replacement, so there are no surprises later.
I hope this helps! Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions.
What warranty do you offer on underpinning work?
We provide a comprehensive 10-year warranty on all underpinning work, backed by ongoing aftercare support. Our structural engineers conduct follow-up inspections to ensure long-term stability.
How long does a typical house restumping job take, and do you handle all the permits?
Most restumping projects take 3-5 days. We manage all council permits and paperwork as part of our service, making it hassle-free for homeowners throughout Melbourne's northern suburbs.
