Do I need to move out during restumping in Ballarat?

You usually do not need to move out during restumping in Ballarat, though it depends on how much of the house is being jacked, how unstable the floors are before we start, and whether bathrooms, kitchens or entry points are affected for a few days. Many partial reblocking jobs let people stay put; a full-house restump on an older weatherboard is more disruptive. Cold wet weather can also slow access when the subfloor is muddy. Before we start we tell you how long the jacking stage runs, whether any services need disconnecting, and which rooms will be off limits and when, so you can decide whether staying is practical for your household.
