I started with a list of over 50 potential companies and knew none of them. I brought my list down to 6 based on experience, license number and reviews. I intended to have 4 of those give me a bid but after Golden Retrofit (bid#2) I knew I was done. Selina knew so much more about the EBB process then the other 5 companies I spoke with. Andy gave me such a good Inspection and knowledge of my crawl space that I knew he crawled through every inch of my space. I've been under my house dozens and dozens of times. Kristina kept me informed of every step and handled my Deposit as well as Final Payment. Jordan was with me prior to the City Inspection and provided quickly each view the City Inspector needed to see. The Inspection Process was so Professional I knew they had down this before. I can't say enough about my experience with Golden Retrofit. In my humble opinion they Are The Best!

I have a 90 year old house, like all houses that old the foundation has settled in several areas. Received a bid from another company which was outrageously expensive. My contractor recommended Golden Retrofit (GR). Tom from GR came out and explained what they could do to level my house in great detail. Tom took calls and re-explained the same details to my husband and a friend. Their bid was less than half of what the other company proposed. I was little hesitant because of the different in prices between the two bids. Tom reassured me that they will not cut corners and everything would be done to code. I went with GR and they did indeed did a great job. They went above and beyond what they said they would do. The only complaint was that it took longer than the two weeks they suggested. The extra time required was needed to solve a problem caused at the time of the original construction of the house. I'm very happy with them and definitely will recommend them to my neighbors and friends. I highly recommend GR and Tom to anyone that lives in an older home that has a foundation that has settled.

Eldar in particular was great. He gave us solid advice, didnt oversell us and was timely on everything. The workers were courteous, cleaned up after themselves and kept us updated on progress. We are really happy with the outcome!

I really appreciated the service that Golden Retrofit provided. I always procrastinate doing construction work on my home because it really is exhausting to deal with but Tom and the guys made the process extremely easy! I have recommended them to 2 of my friends so far and will continue to do so.

One-half the price of it’s leading competitor, prompt responses, on-time for appointments, no hassles on minor fixes that were omitted or flaws that needed to be fixed. Excellent in ALL respects! Be sure you talk to Golden Retrofit if you need seismic retrofits before the next BIG one!

We were referred to golden retrofit through a family friend. We had a seismic retrofit done. The work was done in 2 days and was reasonably priced. We passed inspection on the first try.

Great service! Golden Retrofit is one of the most reliable construction companies we have ever dealt with. Eldar provided a very fair quote and helped us understand the work that needed to be done. Once they started the job it was done in less time than expected.
