Inspection and
Written Estimate.

Our FREE comprehensive substructure Inspection and Written Estimate to determine your home’s risks during an earthquake includes:

  1. Home inspection by a highly trained inspector, who evaluates and measures your home’s foundation and sub-areas and develops a drawing of your home’s substructure.
  2. Development of a customized seismic improvement plan for your home, based on the latest building codes and best practices.
  3. Presentation of a retrofit plan describing the risks to your home and how our plan will reduce those risks. We’ll also provide a written proposal detailing costs of installation.

Installation of Seismic Retrofit
