Morning :;,
I am in a bit of a jam and would like to know more about restumping my house. I've notice that there is a deep crack in my ceiling and my partner advised that it seems that my stumps are sinking to the ground and needs to be restumped. When I first purchased the house, it was only a hairline crack. Two years later, it's a deeper crack, apprx 0.5cm wide which is causing the trimming of the edges to crack as well. Would like to fix this problem before more money $$$ is spent.
Could someone please advise approximately how much it costs to restump the house and if there is any other option. My partner mention there was a cheaper alternative to restumping your house - jacking up the house and inserting blocks of foam. I've tried googgling for this method, no such luck.
Any information/direction/referrals (I live in SE Melbourne) would be greatly appreciated. I would like to know more about restumping then having to rely on my partner :q.
Many thanks.
Tiffany
