Screw pier underpinning

Total Piling & Excavations operates in the Tullamarine, VIC area, offering remedial building services, including screw pier underpinning. Contact them directly for a current quote.

Across greater Melbourne, seasonal swings in the reactive clay under many older homes are the main driver of the footing movement that leads to this kind of work.

Expect a written, inspection-based quote rather than a fixed price: underpinning typically runs $4,000 to $15,000 and concrete cancer repair depends heavily on access. Full detail is in the cost guide.

Common questions

What services is Total Piling & Excavations listed for?

Total Piling & Excavations's listing here covers Screw pier underpinning. Treat that as a pointer for comparing specialists rather than a confirmed scope of work, and check directly what they can take on.

Is Total Piling & Excavations licensed and insured?

This directory carries name, city and service focus only, not licensing or insurance verification. Ask Total Piling & Excavations for their current licence and insurance details directly, and check them against your state's building regulator if you want independent confirmation.

Should I get a structural engineer's assessment before contacting Total Piling & Excavations?

For anything beyond hairline cosmetic cracking, yes. A structural engineer independently diagnoses whether footings have moved and why, and specifies the repair; a contractor like Total Piling & Excavations then prices and carries out that repair. Getting the engineer's report first means every quote you get, including from Total Piling & Excavations, is priced against the same diagnosis.

How much should I expect a job like this to cost?

Underpinning and concrete repair are quote-driven work, typically $4,000 to $15,000 for common residential underpinning jobs, but method, soil and access swing the number a lot. Get a written quote from Total Piling & Excavations or any contractor you compare, and check it against our cost guide.
