Frequently Asked Questions

What is earthquake retrofitting, and why is it important?

Earthquake retrofitting involves strengthening your home’s foundation and structure to withstand seismic activity. It’s essential for reducing the risk of significant damage during an earthquake, protecting both your property and your safety.

Homes built before modern seismic building codes were established are often at higher risk. If your home was constructed before 1980 or shows signs of structural vulnerabilities, such as cracks or unreinforced shear walls, it may benefit from retrofitting.

The process typically includes reinforcing the foundation, bolting the house to the foundation, adding shear walls, and securing walls to the foundation. Each retrofit is tailored to the specific needs of your home.

The duration depends on the size of your home and the extent of the work required. Most projects can be completed within a few days, with minimal disruption to your daily life.

Earthquake retrofitting focuses on structural improvements, most of which are not visible from the outside. The enhancements are made to the foundation and other critical areas, leaving your home’s appearance unchanged while significantly improving its safety.
