Great Video - makes me think i could almost do it myself ha

[@dingeldiy]

That's the whole point of the channel! Thanks for watching. I'm just a dude with some tools, everyone has to start somewhere.

Thanks mate ❤

I have a small brick vernier on stumps .thinking of places concrete blocks down the putting in adjustable steel posts ?

[@dingeldiy]

That's a good option but material is expensive! The adjustable stumps I've come across were $100 each

You really like your dirty jobs with akward working positions, dont you? I understand why most people take their floors out. One question, being from a differnt continent: Whats the benefit of settig a house on stumps instead of a concrete foundation? Price, ventilation and temperature handeling?

[@dingeldiy]

I wasn't planning on doing this work as I mentioned in the video! Working as a sole-trader you learn to say yes to everything.
Yeah you pretty much nailed it. It's cheaper, keeps the house cooler during hot Australian summers. Less likely to flood, good access to services from underneath for maintenance and alterations.
You don't see it anymore in new construction here but it's very common practice with decking, renovations and restorations.

@@dingeldiy Thank you for answering, if it gets any hotter round here in the next years, this might be a new (to this part of the world) trend.
