"This contractor was hired by my 67 year old mother. Contractor was very attentive at first. Paid for 1/2 the project up front. He then started missing a day here or there. Would not return phone calls. Then would just show up one day, work for a few hours thenhen disappear again. Sometimes for weeks at a time. He was to redo my brick fireplace and after the 3rd try, me guessing he had know idea what or how to do what I was wanting and instead of telling me this he just kept getting deeper into trouble. He then asked for additional money for the carpet. I have not heard from him since. A 7-10 day project has turned into 90+ days and it is still not completed. My aluminum outlets were replaced by him with Copper and the special glue that is to go on the wiring was omitted! FIRE HAZARD. He was to hang a ceiling fan and there was no ceiling fan support box installed. It would have fallen if he would have installed. Stay away from this contractor. I have had another contract try and contact him for my carpet that I paid for and he will not return that phone call either."

Earthquake Retrofitting questions, answered by experts

First, you can expect the project to be loud. If you have pets, you might want to take them to a friend's house during the day so they are not disturbed by any of the loud noises. In addition, you’ll need to provide the retrofit team access to areas of the house that will need to be worked on, meaning you’ll need to relocate personal items, clear clutter, and make pathways for the crew. Once the project is complete, a local building inspector will conduct a final inspection to ensure that the retrofitting is up to code.

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

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.

Earthquake retrofitting can increase your home value, making it a great return on investment. This feature is especially valuable in areas prone to earthquakes. Besides the increased safety value (not only for your family but for the next family who moves in), earthquake retrofitting also helps lower homeowners insurance rates. In addition, having your home earthquake retrofitted can make it easier to get a home loan since they are considered lower risk.

An earthquake retrofit is essential for safety in an earthquake-prone area. Without proper retrofitting, your home is at risk of sliding off the foundation, shifting, or collapsing.

You may also require a retrofit if your home was built before 1980 when building codes began requiring reinforcing, bracing, and bolting for new construction. You may not be eligible for insurance to help pay for earthquake-related damages without a retrofit.
