Perth Restumping FAQ

Call 0485 557 649 if your question isn’t covered here — we’ll connect you with a local specialist.

Do you build / restump yourselves?

No. Perth Restumping is a referral service. We connect you with an independent local licensed specialist who quotes and contracts with you directly. See how our referral service works.

How much does restumping cost in Perth?

Published 2026 guides put most full restumps at about $8,400–$27,300 depending on house size, or roughly $190–$670 per stump installed. See the cost guide.

Do I need a building permit?

Usually yes for structural restumping. See WA permits.

Concrete or steel stumps?

Concrete is common on sand; adjustable steel is often preferred on reactive clay. Your specialist will advise after seeing the ground and access.

How long will it take?

Partial jobs can be days; full restumps often one to two weeks, weather and access allowing. Ask for a programme on your quote.

Will my floors need sanding after?

Sometimes. Movement and jacking can affect finishes. Discuss floor repairs before you book polishing or a kitchen reno.

What about termites?

New stumps should include ant caps / barriers. If termites damaged timber, budget for a licensed pest inspection and treatment as a separate scope.
