House restumping, also known as house reblocking or house levelling, is a crucial process undertaken to replace or repair the stumps or posts that support a house. Over time, these stumps may deteriorate due to factors like soil movement, moisture or termite damage, leading to structural instability. The process involves lifting the house, replacing the old stumps, and ensuring the building is level and properly supported.
