Rhino RetrofittingI am busy. I own a couple of rental apartment buildings one was mandated to be soft retrofitted by the city. I called several companies. Rhino Retrofitting was able to accommodate my busy schedule. The inspection was through and the proposal fair. I interviewed a couple others and I felt Rhino fit my needs best. Overall, the project went off without a hitch. The Rhino Retrofitting team instills confidence that they know what they are doing and can adapt when necessary. I was not disappointed. From the initial meeting and inspection to the permitting and approvals, they worked for me as an ally- a team I can trust. I write very few reviews I felt it necessary that I share my experience with rhino retrofitting. I recommend them!- Jason R.

Rhino RetrofittingRecently we had Rhino Retrofitting do a soft retrofit on one of our properties in the Bay area. From the start Sean and the team were organized, professional and diligent when it came to performing this work during the COVID-19 pandemic. We had to delay the start of construction for over two weeks and they were very accommodating. Whenever we needed to speak to someone we were always answered quickly. We have confidence that the work they did is high quality and will last. We look forward to working with them on another project in the future. Overall five stars.- Stacey C.

Rhino RetrofittingI own several buildings in California and Arizona. When I was notified that one apartment building in Daly City must be soft-retrofitted I asked a friend who had similar work done who he recommends. He told me to call Rhino Retrofitting. I am glad I listened. The team at Rhino worked efficiently and handled everything for me. I was given regular updates throughout the construction and when there was a slight delay I was notified immediately. I like being involved and consulted. Rhino Retrofitting has great people working for them. I will use them and only them moving forward and you should to.- Irene T.

Rhino RetrofittingTremendous work done by this company. I spoke to five different contractors, but Rhino Retrofitting was the one I was most comfortable working with. They did a soft story retrofit for my three-story apartment building in Oakland. I am confident that my tenants and my building are now much safer. They did a great job. The price was fair and the process pretty easy. The inspection was very thorough, and I was given a detailed report on what needed to be done. They handled everything from start to finish. I feel like I got tremendous value for my money. Thanks Rhino!- Maria T.

Rhino RetrofittingI needed earthquake soft- retrofit for my apartment building per city code. I found Rhino Retrofitting based on their great reviews. I met with the inspectorat the building. I immediately found him easy to talk to, and to be very direct and honest. We had a wonderful conversation. Soon after the inspection I received a proposal with a very consistent quote. The proposal was very straight forward with no hidden agendas. I never felt pressured or felt that I was being sold. Whenever I had some questions someone answered me quickly. I made the right choice for my soft-story retrofit. Call them first, you won't be disappointed.- Delores K.

Rhino RetrofittingI own a multistory building in Alameda that needed soft story retrofitting. I called several construction companies and met with a few. The people at RhinoRetrofitting were most impressive. Sean and Antonio met with me on time and on my schedule. They thoroughly discussed the inspection results and clearly explained what needed to be done. The on-site workers were professional and left the job site clean each day.The project was completed on schedule, and the cost was exactly what I was quoted. I am very grateful for their hard work!- Teri S.

Rhino RetrofittingRhino Retrofitting is a great company to hire if you need soft story retrofitting. After getting a few other estimates from different companies, I knew Rhino was it. The staff is very professional; the inspector Antonio and the owner Sean were really helpfulin explaining the process of the work they would do. They seemed to have great chemistry and complemented each other's knowledge. Sean kept me informed on what was going on, and he handled permits and city inspections. I definitely recommend this company to anyone needing soft story retrofitting. Thank you to the whole team for a job well done!- Jeanne H.

Rhino RetrofittingI am a tenant in an apartment complex. When the landlord notified me that the building would be under construction for a while because of an ordinance that required retrofitting, I was depressed. The construction has been underway for a few weeks, and I wanted to comment on their workers. Each worker that I have observed has been polite and professional. What I have been impressed most with is how they leave the job site; it is spotless. They care about the tenants, and I can tell. There are no nails left on the pavement, and I can drive in and not worry about coming out to a flat tire. If you are a landlord that cares about the tenants, Rhino Retrofitting should be your choice. Great job!i- Marisol W.

Rhino RetrofittingI would highly recommend Rhino Retrofitting if you need the mandatory soft story retrofitting. All their staff was professional, clean, and timely. They walked me through the project from the beginning to the end. The price was fair, and they did not include any hidden fees. The workers showed up daily on time and left the place clean after each day, and they even finished ahead of schedule.When the city inspector came out, he told me he was very impressed with their work. Thank you,Rhino Retrofitting. I am satisfied and happy to recommend your incredible company.- Melissa P.

Recent Review:
The first visit lead to cleaning the area around the heater and burners and checking the thermocouple. Sadly that seemed to make it worse. Less than a week later No hot water for over 30 hours till the second technician replaced the thermocouple. All is perfect now. No charge for the second visit. The next step, if needed will be a tankless and their quote looks a bit steep. But I am really hoping I won’t need to go that far.

Recent Review:
My wife and I worked with Joe to renovate our home in the South Bay. We basically tore everything down to the studs and did some reconfiguring of the interior, as well as redoing all plumbing and electrical. With Joe and his team, we transformed a home that hasn’t been renovated since the 60’s to the home of our dreams. We were referred to Joe by a trusted friend, and after a phone call with an overview of what our plans were, we met Joe in person at our home for an initial walkthrough. Both my wife and I were impressed with how thorough he was with details regarding the renovation; it was immediately obvious he was a master of his craft, with a vast amount of experience and knowledge in construction. More importantly, he’s down to earth and honest; his transparency was very much appreciated. Joe and his crew take pride in their work. He’d go above and beyond by suggesting certain looks or practical modifications to our original request; it often felt like he was renovating for himself! For the project, he provided a clearly marked timeline and walked us through all the options for both finished and unfinished materials. His encyclopedic knowledge of stores in the Bay Area saved us a lot of money, and we got exactly what we wanted to build our home with! Home renovation is never a easily forecasted task; there are many surprises or issues that come up. With Joe, we knew we were in good hands. When a challenge did come up, he made sure to explain the options to us and address it immediately. Communication is key in this process, and Joe excels at it - he’s very responsive by phone and text. His crew is polite and also share Joe’s willingness to educate and explain the process. All in all, we felt that Joe became a family friend in the construction business and have recommended him to multiple friends and family. If you are looking for top quality work, reasonable pricing, and a trustworthy expert, look no further than Joe Arielli and his team!

This guy is a real pro! The original installer came out and gave up on the problem, and I never heard from them again. Duke came out, and diagnosed the issue in an hour. He even submitted the request for a part under warranty, received it, and came back to install it 2 days later. The cost was very reasonable. Thanks Duke!

Recent Review:
Based on our recent experience hiring Bay Area Retrofit for the retrofit of our 2 story home (old house with a 40 year old addition) I highly recommend Howard Cook and Bay Area Retrofit for earthquake retrofits. Although my initial motivation was getting a discount on earthquake insurance, it became clear, as I checked out providers, that there is a big difference in how safe your home will be, depending on whom you hire. After my extensive research of the options, Howard Cook stood out, asking lots of questions that went far beyond other providers to make sure he knew what to recommend. I was impressed that he conducts research and education in the field, has been consulted by FEMA and has been involved in earthquake documentaries by KQED. Bay Area Retrofit is in demand so it took awhile to get our work scheduled, but it was worth the wait as I now feel secure in the quality of the work done. Bay Area Retrofit has my highest recommendation.
