From classic contractor services such as bathroom remodeling, kitchen remodeling, exterior and interior painting to contemporary services such as energy efficiency audits and solar panel installation, ITS Remodeling is here to ensure premier client care and unprecedented quality of service and installation.

"This company just gets worse and worse the further I dig into them. To date I paid $105,000 on a $77,000 job. Its not complete or even close. I got an estimate today to finish @ $23,000. I am in the process of turning in a complaint to the CSLB. When I went on the CSLB website, I found more complaints on them. Just trust me. Stay as far from Tzahi Edri (aka Isaac) as humanly possible. He is the most evil person I've ever met. To take advantage of my wife and I during a pandemic like this is unfathomable. Attached are photos of their kind of work... BTW!!!! I believe many of the good reviews on the Yelp and Google are suspect!!!!"

Earthquake Retrofitting questions, answered by experts

Costs vary as much as timelines. The average earthquake retrofit costs between $3,500 and $8,700. However, homes on hillsides, large homes, and those with rooms over garages can cost up to $12,000 or more. Make sure to get a few estimates to compare the cost and services.

Projects will vary based on size and scope, but an average earthquake retrofit takes between two weeks and two months. This includes the initial evaluation and plan, bidding and contract paperwork, permitting and approval process, actual work, and final inspection. Your contractor should give you a more accurate time estimate for your specific project, and they may be able to estimate how long the permitting process will take for your area.

Grounding is a great first step to prevent electrical shock, but you can take it further with GFCI outlets and AFCIs (arc fault circuit interrupters). In particular, AFCIs help protect against the type of electrical arcs that cause fires, like if a mouse chews on a wire or your laptop starts overheating at the wall. These are required in some areas of your home.

A home with proper earthquake retrofitting can sustain minimal damage in earthquakes of up to 7.0 magnitude, although risks are higher based on how close and deep the earthquake is. A home closer to the earthquake epicenter will sustain greater damage, especially if the earthquake is closer to the surface of the Earth, but retrofitting can help minimize the risk of injuries.

Earthquake gas shut-off valves, or seismic gas shut-off valves, are safety devices that attach to your natural gas line. When an earthquake hits, the valve automatically turns off the flow of gas. Earthquake gas shut-off valves can prevent gas leaks, which are especially dangerous after a quake due to the risk of fire and explosion.
