It can be easy to overlook chassis maintenance as any wear or corrosion is generally hidden out of sight. Damage generally occurs from the elements and can result in water damage or a build up of debris such as mud and leaves. As the chassis is made of steel, without adequate protection and maintenance, the frame may corrode and rust.
Signs that your home may need maintenance work includes:
In order to assess the work needed, first we would carry out an inspection. We would then advise on the work needed to re-strengthen and / or repair the chassis.
Work may include: replacing old support jacks with new corrosion resistant jacks and cleaning / treating the chassis to prevent any further corrosion.
We can also provide under-floor refurbishment including: replacing any rotten timbers; treating and strengthening wooden supports and replacing floorboards.
You may also wish to consider upgrading your under-floor insulation; this can help to keep your home warm and may reduce your fuel bills! Under-floor insulation upgrades can be installed as an individual project, or as part of a larger under-chassis maintenance project.
