House Levelling in The Rocks
Fix Uneven Floors. Protect Your Heritage Home. Regain Structural Confidence.
Living in The Rocks and seeing cracks in your walls, sloping timber floors, or windows that stick? These aren’t quirks—they’re warnings. We specialise in expert house levelling for homes in The Rocks, with over 20 years of experience restoring structural integrity to some of Sydney’s oldest and most historic properties.
What Is House Levelling, and Do You Need It?
If your home feels like it’s shifting or leaning or if doors and windows aren’t closing like they used to there’s a good chance your foundation or subfloor is failing.
House levelling is the process of lifting, adjusting, and stabilising your home when it has moved due to age, soil changes, or substructure failure.
In areas like The Rocks, the most common causes include:
- Ageing timber stumps or brick piers under older homes
- Moisture issues from poor subfloor drainage
- Foundation fatigue due to settlement over time
- Tree roots disturbing footings
- Vibrations from nearby infrastructure or foot traffic
The longer you wait, the worse it gets. Our team provides fast, clean, and effective levelling to protect your investment and maintain your home’s charm.
Signs That Your Home in The Rocks Needs Levelling
Don’t ignore the early signs of structural movement—especially in older or heritage-listed homes.
Here’s what to look out for:
- Visible cracks in internal plaster or exterior brick
- Floors that slope, bounce, or feel soft underfoot
- Doors or windows that jam, rub, or won’t stay open
- Gaps between floors and skirting boards
- Cracks in tiles, cornices, or ceilings
- Subfloor movement or visible sagging
The Rocks is home to some of Sydney’s oldest buildings—often built on unstable or mixed soil. Early intervention is key to keeping repairs simple and affordable.

House Relevelling Specialists
Old or damaged timber stumps can shift over time, causing floors to dip and frames to twist. We remove failing stumps and install strong, modern replacements—ensuring your home is safely supported and structurally sound for decades to come.
Re-Stumping
When foundations are no longer strong enough to support your home, underpinning adds the reinforcement needed to stabilise and secure your property. We use engineered solutions to extend your footing into stable soil and stop further movement.
Underpinning
For lighter structures or concrete slabs, resin injection is a fast, non-invasive way to stabilise sunken ground. This method lifts and strengthens foundations by injecting an expanding resin that fills gaps under the home—ideal for driveways, patios, and parts of the house affected by soft or shifting soil.

Foundation Repair Services
We inspect, repair, and upgrade the beams, bearers, and joists under your home to make sure everything’s structurally sound. If you’ve noticed bouncy or noisy floors, it might be time to look beneath the surface.
Sub-Floor Works
Ventilation
Moisture trapped under your home can lead to mould, timber decay, and structural problems. We install smart sub-floor ventilation systems that keep air moving and dampness out—helping protect your investment.
