Apples to Apples LLC (A2A) is a project design and consulting firm that provides home owners professional yet affordable tools to plan, comparatively bid and manage large home improvement projects. At the core of our services is the concept of Comparative Shopping (bidding)…which is all about gathering the necessary information that makes good buying choices possible. A2A considers Angie’s List to be a great resource for home owners, especially in qualifying contractors. However, the real devil (and dollars) are in the details. Having great contractors is a good start, but having the right details, materials and comparative bid form for these companies is ESSENTIAL to taking control of your upcoming work. Competitive bidding is a great tool for maximizing value, when done correctly. If done inconsistently or by allowing contractors to define the rules and project scope, the Owner has no way of knowing where the best value lies. Anyone who has considered such large purchases understands the time and energy it takes to "get it right". Check us out at www.myprojectbid.com to learn more.

Earthquake Retrofitting questions, answered by experts

Even if you invested in the cost of a gas shut-off valve for your oven and other appliances, it’s a good idea to add a seismic shut-off valve as an extra safety measure. 

Gas shut-off valves for appliances are manual, meaning someone has to cut off the flow of gas. This leaves room for error, as you might not be home or might be too distracted to think about gas lines during an earthquake. An earthquake valve is automatic and will protect your home from gas-related disasters in the event of an earthquake.

Depending on where you live, your insurance company may require you to have a seismic shut-off valve. It depends on local regulations along with the specific provider. If it’s not a requirement, many providers will offer a discount if you install an earthquake valve, which can save you 5% or more. Contact your provider to learn about potential savings for your plan.

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.

Almost all new buildings in California need an earthquake shut-off valve. The requirements for an earthquake gas shut-off valve (and who can install it) depend on where you live. For example, according to the Los Angeles Municipal Code, you’re required to hire a licensed contractor to install one whenever you build, sell, or renovate a home. Check with your local building department for your city’s laws on installing, permitting, and inspecting earthquake shut-off valves.

Ensure proper ventilation, fix leaks, and schedule regular pest inspections to protect your property.
