Some typical signs that your place of residence might be in need of retrofit are:

  • Wall, floor or foundation cracks.
  • A crawl space that has unbraced cripple wall or has no bolts.
  • Sticky and misaligned doors and windows during smaller quakes.
  • Uneven or sloping floors.
  • Framing/foundation intersection points.

When any of these signs are visible on your property, then our team can provide an extensive assessment of the property itself and decide on the optimal reinforcement strategy to use to bolster your building and your soil type.
