General Construction

Not only can we provide foundational reinforcement, repair, inspection, floor leveling and a variety of other services, but we are also a fully licensed and experienced general construction company at Retrofitting Earthquake. We have literally decades of experience building homes and other edifices.

We can sort out architecture and planning, city permits, safety and health regulations, foundations, frames, walls and even the details such as the electricity, plumbing, roofing, gas and other amenities. Just call Retrofitting Earthquake and speak to one of our advisors about your needs.

Foundation Repair
To make your home safer, we will inspect the foundation of your building with all local safety and building codes in mind. After inspection, we will be able to determine if any significant work needs to be done. Foundations might have cracks in them due to seismic activity, poor drainage, landslides and even just normal wear and tear through age.

Not only can this be costly if it is not fixed in a timely manner, but it can also be downright dangerous for any occupants of the building. Cracks in your foundation can be repaired using the latest advances in engineering and science — including straps, an epoxy injection, or a pad (sometimes called an underpin).

Foundation Replacement

At Retrofitting Earthquake, we can inspect your home or building to see if it needs foundation replacement. Ideally, homes in the Greater Los Angeles area should have a concrete and steel foundation to provide the greatest security against earthquakes and seismic activity. The original un-reinforced masonry, stone or brick is often completely inadequate.

If you need to do this with your home for safety and security, then it is something that we specialize in. You will even be able to keep living in your home without any problems in most cases while we create your new safe and strong foundation.

House Bolting
House bolting is the science of attaching a house to its foundation in a more permanent and secure manner. In California, we know all too well the dangers of earthquakes and seismic activity, especially since the Northridge Quake of 1994. The up and down or side to side movements of an earthquake can very easily shake a house off its foundation if it is not attached properly.

At Retrofitting Earthquake, we will be able to bolt your house to the foundation and also brace any walls needed, by using only the best materials. This can provide significant resistance against earthquakes for any home.

House Leveling

With time, and especially in earthquake prone areas such as the Greater Los Angeles area, seismic activity of any sort can cause your floors to slope. This not only often cracks walls, but it frequently does not allow you to open or close doors as well. In almost every case, this type of damage can be repaired by leveling the floor back to its original position.

The technique is structurally sound and uses the latest advances in engineering and science, so your building is as good as new and as safe as ever.
