We've got an uneven floor in a couple of rooms, its quite noticeable. I had a couple of quotes done back in 2019 when we first bought the house but ignored the problem until now, so I'd like to get something done about it.

 

Anyone got any recommendations? It seems like slim pickings in Wellington and I'm already struggling at quote stage, so far I've tried:

 

Wellington House Repiling - no response
A Grade Repiling - provided quote, but too expensive
Repiling Specialists - came out, did the assessment for quote, now no response asking for said quote
The Foundation Company - coming to quote this week
Gorilla Repiling - can't come to quote till end of june
Gold Coast Building Removals - can maybe come in two weeks

 

So if anyone has recommendations out of the list, except for the two that have ghosted me, or new recommendations I can contact that'd be appreciated

Only that one of the guys moves across the road from me and I've watched them have Brittons put the existing house on a truck, park it down the street, put an even bigger house on the property then put the original on front. Looked like real tidy work from our POV.

Too expensive compared to your 2019 quotes? You'll have to wait for some more 2025 prices to find out.

Not at all, I was expecting it to be more than the 2019 quote but they want to repile the whole house whereas I don’t..

 

Having said that, they’ve just come back with a revised quote that’s reduced the scope of work to the area of concern, and it’s actually reasonable so they’re a contender now

 

Have you had experience with them? They rate well which is good.

Do you need a repiler?. We had to add a new pile in the existing part of the house to get COC for an extension. Our builders added it in and it passed the inspection

I was impressed with Wellington House Repiling, could be worth giving them another try

I’m not actually sure, just seemed like the logical choice as the corner of the house needs to be jacked up so it’s level,  and about 8 or so new piles put in, then packing existing piles (based off the opinion of one of the repilers)

After the initial contact form, they called once but I missed the call. I called back within a few minutes of that missed call but they didn’t answer and went to VM. 

 

I followed up a few days later by email but never heard back from them so I take that as they’re not interested.
