Avalin Seismic Construction Co Inc

We have two 100 year old residential structures in Long Beach which required a seismic retrofit. One was a simple brace and bolt project and the other required much more complicated work. We received quotes from three well-rated companies. On the more complicated job, Avalin offered the best price and got the work done quickly with no disruption and promptly provided the documentation needed to reduce the cost of my earthquake insurance. In addition, the company's owner provided valuable, thoughtful advice on another major project which was outside his scope of work. A delight to deal with. Highest recommendatio

Excellent experience again with Alpha Structural. Charlie Rosenkranz came to see the 3-story apartment building in West Hollywood. We discussed what the soft story retrofit plans will likely include. He's knowledgeable and experienced. We appreciated his professional no-pressure approach and answering our questions. Alpha performed an exploratory investigation of the support structure, as architectural plans were not available. They engineered the plans with city approval. They then consulted with us and provided the approved THP (Tenant Habitability Plan) paperwork. Production Manager Dave Schlaich and Job Supervisor Seth Price met me before construction. Dave went over the approved plans and explained the work that would be performed, and the purpose. They both answered all my questions. Lawrence and Antonio were the main work team. They were very pleasant and answered all our questions. Both had great explanations with Lawrence being very detailed. Seth provided timely progress reports by phone and text. He answered all questions, and provided contacts for automatic shut-off gas valves and stucco work. Despite Covid-19, they scheduled and passed inspections, and completed the work in under a month. We've seen projects by other companies stuck in limbo for months with no progress, so we chose Alpha to avoid complications. They removed all debris, and left the property clean. The tenants and neighbors had no complaints. Daniel Aparicio also explained various issues. Communication with everyone, including the office staff, was excellent. We're very pleased with this experience

We had excellent experience with Alpha Structural. Charlie Rosenkranz came to see the property and advice. He checked the structures all around and looked in the basement as far as possible beyond the ducts that were filling up the space and would require tunneling to get to some areas under the building. Communication was excellent. He's knowledgeable and experienced. We appreciated his professional no pressure approach and answering our questions. The front main duplex needed Seismic Retrofit; it wasn't bolted and had cripple walls. There were suspect areas in the foundations that would have to be tested when bolting, to see if the concrete is in good shape. After we agreed to their proposal have the work done we scheduled a range date. They had to submit to the city plans for a permit to do the work and wait for the permit to be issued. While doing the retrofit we found out that the foundation in the front corner was damaged and that the building has sunken and was not level at that corner. Charlie worked out the details and bid for the additional work of Partial Foundation Replacement, Posts/piers, and Jack Lift the corner to level it. He explained the details and what's involved to my satisfaction. Alpha obtained the permit for the work and proceeded. The work crew did excellent work. Jose Morales was the Project Supervisor. They completed the work at a good pace, including the delay for the additional work permit, without complications or complaints from the neighbors. The place was left clean. The work was approved in the inspection which they requested and scheduled with the city. The communication with everyone at the office was also very good. We're very pleased with the experience

Alpha was professional and efficient in getting our earthquake retrofit done and they knew how to work with the earthquake brace+bolt program smoothly. We were very pleased with their work and would recommend them.

I emailed the contact email listed and received a response within the hour. I asked for an estimate/evaluation of my foundation due to upcoming upgrades required on my carriage house second unit in West Hollywood. The office very efficiently set up an appointment then called back to confirm the time and give me the owners cell phone number. Dave showed up on time, evaluated my 1916 unit, told me all was in fine condition and gave me a worst case senario (only if the city went over the top ) of an earthquake retrofit. This is a family company and the owner and his family members were a delight and genuine. Mr. Dave did not charge me for the estimate. Because I researched the company's background prior to contacting them, and not because anything was said, I found out the association to the art side of a structural engineer (the Choinard Foundation which benefits arts for children in the Pasadena area). A good businessman and responsible civic person

This project fell 100% into the hands of my husband so I can't speak to whether I think we got a fair price or not. What I will say is that Alpha was highly recommended to us by a trusted colleague who had vetted many companies for similar work on his home and ended up hiring (and loving) Alpha. The work Alpha performed on our home was permitted (reassuring!) and approved by an inspector at the end. The workers spent 2-3 days during work hours in the crawl space and I never saw them. Dave walked my husband through the space after the work was done to explain everything they did. We requested before/after pictures and received them. Whenever my husband had a question, Dave was very responsive. I wish my husband and I knew more about this type of work so we could be more articulate about the quality of the work. However, we don't, and sometimes we just have to trust professionals and their knowledge and judgment, in their integrity and responsiveness. Our experience with Alpha has been more than pleasant and no red flags thus far (bonus!). I feel like if we ever have questions/concerns in the future, Alpha will be there to get us through

Brad Nestler of Alpha Structural came to our house on time and was very courteous and professional throughout the whole process. He gave us good tips on keeping the foundation sound and also did a thorough check of the foundation. We didn't go with them due to budget issues but would keep them in mind for major repairs

I couldn't be happier. The inspectors, Brad and Matt, were very professional. They did a drawing of the perimeter of my home. They spent a good deal of time under my house. They told me that my house is actually bolted. Some of the bolting is up to code and some is old, but bolted. I was so relieved since I got a quote from another contractor for thousands of dollars to bolt. I am so grateful to find an honest company. Thank you Alpha Structural, Inc.

"This is THE company to use. I had an old 1907 wooden house sitting on a decaying brick foundation and needing a sister foundation installed and a complete seismic retrofit. Even during the bidding process, Brad from Alpha was extremely attentive without being assertive. I contacted four other companies although one I eliminated since they charged a fee for inspecting. Alpha was very timely with their bid and flexible when I needed help with the budget. All the way through the process, every single person at Alpha was extraordinarily good at customer relations, returned emails immediately, and stayed in constant contact throughout the entire process. Whenever there was a slight change to the original plan due to permitting or a plumbing adjustment, Alpha was very proactive and made sure everything was communicated clearly and promptly. I have really NEVER worked with a company that had such excellent communication skills. This is really one reason I selected them to do the work and, even though they may not have been the least expensive, it is worth the extra price for this reason alone. And Alpha Structural's work speaks for itself as well. Everything was done precisely and well beyond code, an unbid section of foundation was provided under the front porch without increase to the budget, and all materials used were of the highest quality. The project went on somewhat longer than estimated due to permit changes and a short weather delay but was still finished in a timely way. My home is our family's largest asset and it is a great relief to now know it is sitting on a solid foundation. The entire process from first to last was excellent and I cannot say enough good things about the way Alpha Structural handled the project. From the front office to the boots on the ground: A++

"After the last few earthquakes that we’ve experienced I realized it’s important to ensure that my homes foundation is in good condition. Our home was built in the 40s and hasn’t had any work done on since. I contacted a few different companies and decided to go with golden retrofit because of their honesty and diligence. David came to our house to give the estimate and aside from it being the most reasonable one I also had an affinity towards him which inclined me to choose them even more. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a similar service. Thank you David and golden retrofit!!!

"I hired Dalinghaus Construction to install two push Piers for a freestanding column/wall (bad clay soil causing movement). I meet with Kevin to go over the scope of work and he explained everything in detail. The price was the best I can find. Took one extra day to finish the work, but they did not charge me any additional fees. 3 month later, I had a feeling that the column/wall is moving again and call Kevin. He show up in a few days and show me there is no way that wall is still moving and he was right. They are very good at what they do and customer service is the best. Thank you very much.

"Based on great reviews and proximity to my home in South Los Angeles, I hired Top Value to remodel my bathroom and kitchen, retaining some of the unique built-in aspects of my 100+ yr old Craftsman house while making the bathroom and kitchen more functional. They were able to do that, while staying on budget, and I love my new bathroom and kitchen now!
