Bentleigh has houses that date back to the 1880s, and older timber floors are where stumps wear out first. Call, and one restumper will call you back as soon as possible.

Old Bentleigh houses and what sits under them

Bentleigh houses on the Glen Eira heritage review go back to 1885 and 1890.

The review lists a house at 133 Tucker Road dated 1885 and one at 14 Atkinson Street dated 1890. It also lists flats and places built from 1950 to 1959.

The part of the review we read does not say when most local homes were built. A look under the floor is the only way to know what your stumps are.

Restumping and reblocking work we quote

Restumping Underpinning quotes restumping and underpinning. Some customers call restumping reblocking, and the work is the same.

Stumps, also called piers, hold up the floor. If they have rotted, sunk or cracked, floors slope and doors stick.

The same quote covers houses before a renovation or remodel, and before an extension or addition.
