    Our Customers Say

    Needed an earthquake retrofit for my home. I have a raised foundation and my insurance is with CEA. As CEA has threatened me with a letter saying my insurance may be cancelled without a retrofit I decided to find a contractor and have it done. I found Foundation Builders. They gave me a competitive contract for the work.

    Structural & Retrofitting Services

    Your needs could vary from fixing minor foundation cracks to complete structural leveling for your home, and our team will do everything to restore the property to its pre-damage stage.

    Are your building’s safety and compliance being sidelined due to weak ground-floor structures? It impacts your property’s value and safety. We will quickly reinforce the space for you to ensure it meets all modern safety standards.

    We are ready to execute any seismic retrofitting or foundation repair service you may need for your factory; ensuring your structure is fully prepared to withstand earthquake activity.

    Steps to Follow After Structural Damage

    When your home or building is affected by structural issues or seismic shifts, you need to be careful and follow a few simple steps to ensure the complete safety of your property as well as your loved ones.

    01

    Identify the Signs of Damage

    If the cause of the structural issue cannot be immediately detected, you should look for visible signs like wall cracks, uneven floors, or sticking doors. Try to look closely at foundation walls and ceilings for new gaps. Check your crawl space for moisture or shifting. If you can’t assess the extent of the damage on your own, give our team a call immediately for a professional inspection.

    02

    Contact Your Insurance & Engineering Experts

    Once you identify a potential structural failure or seismic vulnerability, it’s crucial to document the issues as early as you can. Take high-quality photos or detailed notes of all cracks and shifts. You need to keep a record of these for insurance claims or structural engineering reports. Make sure you have answers to potential questions regarding when the cracks first appeared or if the building has undergone previous retrofitting.

    03

    Ensure Occupant Safety

    If you must enter a building with significant structural damage, you need to do so with extreme caution. Structural instability can lead to sudden collapses. Avoid areas with large ceiling cracks or leaning walls. If the damage is severe, turn off the main gas and electricity lines to prevent secondary hazards like fires or leaks. Always prioritize your safety before attempting any minor DIY fixes.

    04

    Begin Reinforcement Immediately with Professionals

    In structural situations, you need to act quickly. The longer you wait to address foundation settling or soft-story weakness, the further the damage could spread, leading to higher repair costs. Once our professionals declare the best course of action whether it’s leveling or retrofitting you should begin the repair process to secure your investment.
