How do I know if my house needs restumping?
Most homes use wooden or concrete stumps as a foundation. The stumps are vulnerable to a variety of factors which can cause the house to be unstable and unsafe. Since the stumps are the basis of the foundation, any issues identified should be fixed immediately to avert more danger and further problems.
Other signs of stump-damage that you can use to tell when it’s time to seek a restumping expert include cracks in the brickwork and plaster, creaking doors and windows that won’t close properly.
Sometimes, the age of your home can also be a good yardstick when assessing whether your home needs restumping services.
Here are some of the signs that your home might need restumping;
Uneven floors
The most obvious sign that stumps are compromised is sloping floors. Some parts of your home can feel like you're walking downhill or uphill. If you suspect your floors are uneven, you can place a marble or a small ball on the floor and see if it rolls away.
The decay of foundations under the house
If the stumps have been compromised, the signs extend to the interior of the house. They stumps will show signs of damage if you check under the house
Moisture around the foundation
One of the factors that damage foundation stumps is moisture. If there's a lot of moisture around your house, the stumps are more vulnerable. Wet wood is more susceptible to termites which eat away at the wood.
