"Easily the best experience I have had with any contractor in this area after one year of maintaining a 100 year old home! They were punctual and accommodating and went out of their way to ensure complete, quality work at fair prices. I was ready to do a much larger project but found it was unnecessary with their assistance. Highly recommend Insulation Works for any home energy needs."

"Fibercare was responsive to my phone call (called me back immediately), came to my house to pick-up, called when a rainstorm meant they couldn't deliver in a timely manner, completed the work as promised and charged a fair price. The family run business is friendly, trustworthy, and hardworking. Highly recommended."

"The technician did an excellent job. It did take a while to get the repair finished, but that was due to Bertazzoni delivering the parts. I have had multiple problems with this particular appliance. My range now works better than it did when new, but I have a feeling that even if I have continuing problems with it, American Home Shield will just repair rather than replace due to the cost of the range. By the way, I'm not exactly sure of the date of the repair."

Earthquake Retrofitting questions, answered by experts

Whether an earthquake gas shut-off valve is required depends on your location and circumstances. Certain cities, states, and even insurance providers mandate them, especially in areas with high seismic activity. In California, for example, while laws vary by county, most jurisdictions require a valve to be installed in newly constructed homes or when a home is sold or renovated. The Los Angeles Municipal Code specifically requires a licensed contractor for installation. Even if not required by law, installing a seismic shut-off valve is a wise safety measure. These devices automatically cut off the flow of gas during an earthquake, which can prevent gas leaks, fires, and explosions. It is recommended to check with your local building department for specific laws regarding installation, permitting, and inspections, and to ensure the valve you install is on your city's list of approved models.

Grounding is a great first step to prevent electrical shock, but you can take it further with GFCI outlets and AFCIs (arc fault circuit interrupters). In particular, AFCIs help protect against the type of electrical arcs that cause fires, like if a mouse chews on a wire or your laptop starts overheating at the wall. These are required in some areas of your home.

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.

The average cost for an earthquake retrofit is between $3,500 and $8,700, though the full range can be anywhere from $500 to $15,000 or more. Costs vary significantly depending on your home's foundation, type, and the specific retrofitting method used. For a slab foundation, you can expect to pay on the lower end, between $500 and $3,000, while a wooden foundation can cost $5,000 to $10,000. Retrofitting a hillside home typically costs between $5,000 and $12,000 or more. A soft-story home, such as one with rooms over a garage, is the most expensive, with costs ranging from $10,000 to $80,000. It is advisable to get multiple estimates to compare services and pricing.

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