You realise that your timber piles are sitting on concrete foundations that are exposed and if there was a land slide or earthquake your house will probably collapse?
I can't believe that you were allowed to buy it like that or that your bank has loaned you money with the piles exposed like that? I bet if the insurance assessor came around your insurance policy would be closely looked at.
Christchurch has liquefaction but Auckland suffered last summer from shrinking ground that caused many houses to slump and foundations to crack.
I would hurry up and get that sorted asap before a 3rd party finds out and that will require an engineered design now, if you can an engineer willing to put their name to it.
