Advantages of house Restumping

Restumping your house can be an excellent advantage for your home, especially if the house is built on wood stumps. Many of the older style houses were constructed on hardwood stumps, which are very durable material. Still, over time, even they can tend to start to deteriorate through exposure to moisture and pests. Having your house restumped is the best way to ensure that you are safe from any impending disasters that could threaten your home and your family's security.

You may be casually going about your day to day life without realizing that underneath you, things are not in the best condition. Unless you know what you are looking for, house stumps could look ok from the outside, while inside the wood could be deteriorating rapidly due to pests and weather. Having your house Restumped is one way to assess the state of your stumps and have the peace of mind of knowing that you have at least another ten years up your belt.

Old houses that have been sitting on the same wooden stumps for an extended period are very likely to have dry rot in places, which could make its way up into your house. These days, when houses are restumped, the materials used are manufactured specifically to prevent this from happening, where previously, the technology was not there that we have today. When you have your house restumped, you are given the option of choosing fresh hardwood, concrete, or galvanized steel. The latter is much more durable and provides more protection against dry rot.  For more information please visit here cdanielsfoundations
