Why You May Need Brick Pier Replacement
Deteriorating mortar
Over time, the mortar holding the bricks together can deteriorate. This may require a brick pier replacement to prevent further damage and potential safety hazards.
Cracks in brickwork
Cracks in the bricks can be a sign of movement or settlement in the structure, which may necessitate a brick pier replacement to restore stability.
Leaning piers
If a brick pier starts leaning, it could be due to foundation or other structural issues. Replacing the pier can help ensure the safety and longevity of your structure.
Water damage
Excessive moisture or water damage can weaken bricks and mortar in a pier, making a replacement necessary to prevent further deterioration
Pest infestation
Termites and other pests can cause significant damage to brick piers, sometimes requiring a complete replacement to restore the structure’s integrity.
Age or construction quality
Older brick piers or those built with poor-quality materials may need to be replaced to ensure the safety and stability of your property.
Renovations or extensions
If you’re planning a renovation or extension project, it may be necessary to replace existing brick piers to accommodate the new design or support additional weight.
Compliance with regulations
Local building regulations may require a brick pier replacement if the existing piers don’t meet current safety and structural standards.

Client Testimonials
Mark came out on time to provide a quote for a floor levelling and brick pier replacement work. He took his time to explain how the situation may have occurred and options to remedy. Certainly seems to know his stuff. Was able to talk about the modifications that were done to the house from what he was seeing in the foundations. We haven’t proceeded with the works yet, but I know where I’d be heading.
Mark and his team have done two projects at my house. They fixed the sinking floor and helped to fix a disaster project by another tradie. These guys are fantastic! Their quote is reasonable, always comes on time, does a great job and keeps the place clean after themselves. Very professional and experienced, give honest advice and suggest the best approach. I am very happy with the results and will gladly work with them again.
Thanks to Mark & his team for an extremely professional job!!
We were really impressed (as were our neighbours) at the level of care taken especially with regard to access, the tricky nature of the site and for the clean up afterwards. They definitely live up to their name and we would have no hesitation in recommending A1 Underpinning.
