Hydraulic leveling of a house

House releveling with hydraulic jacks offers a modern and remarkably precise solution for foundations that have become uneven or are sinking. The process begins with a thorough inspection of your home and its foundation to pinpoint exactly where the unevenness lies and what might be causing it, whether it's soil settling or moisture issues.

Once the problematic areas are clearly identified, our team carefully prepares the site by creating access points beneath your home, often involving small excavations, to strategically position the high-capacity hydraulic jacks. These jacks are connected to a central pump system, allowing for the entire lifting process to be synchronized.

The house is then very slowly and carefully lifted in tiny increments using the hydraulic jacks. Throughout this delicate process, we meticulously monitor the lifting with advanced surveying equipment, like laser levels, to ensure your home is brought back to a perfectly level position without causing any additional stress or damage to the structure.

Understanding H5 Structural Pine

When it comes to your home's foundation, you want materials that are strong, reliable, and built to last. That's where H5 structural pine comes in – it's a type of treated timber specifically designed for important structural parts of your home, like house stumps and bearers.
The "H5" you see refers to the timber's treatment level. Think of it as a protective shield! This treatment makes the timber incredibly resistant to things we definitely don't want near our foundations: decay and insect attack.

How H5 Treatment Works its Magic
H5 structural pine is treated with a special preservative solution. This isn't just a surface coating; the solution is impregnated deep into the timber's cells under pressure. This process creates a lasting barrier, providing long-term protection against fungal decay and those pesky insects, significantly increasing the timber's lifespan and durability.

Steel adjustable house stumps to suit Western Australian conditions.

In addition to traditional timber options, we also utilise steel adjustable stumps for superior strength and longevity. These modern stumps offer a robust and highly adaptable solution for foundation repairs. Made from durable steel, they are resistant to rot, pests, and moisture, which are common issues with timber stumps. Their adjustable design allows for precise leveling, ensuring a perfectly even foundation and addressing any existing structural discrepancies with accuracy. Steel adjustable stumps provide enhanced stability and a longer lifespan for your home's foundation.
