Earthquake Retrofitting questions, answered by experts

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.

The total time for an earthquake retrofit project varies based on its size and scope. The entire process, from the initial evaluation and planning to the final inspection, typically takes between two weeks and two months. This comprehensive timeline includes bidding, contract paperwork, the permitting and approval process, the actual retrofitting work, and the final inspection.

The physical installation work itself is often quicker, with most jobs taking one week to 10 business days. However, the project may take longer if it requires more extensive work or if the home has structural damage from a previous earthquake. A professional retrofitting expert can provide a more accurate timeline for your specific project after an initial consultation and can also estimate how long the permitting process will take in your area.

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.

Generally, the retrofitting process can take two to four weeks. Your contractor will let you know if staying in your home for the entire project is feasible. However, most people are able to remain at home. If your home is undergoing earthquake rehab, it's more likely that you'll need to leave until work is complete. Your earthquake insurance may cover boarding costs if your home is deemed unsafe.

It is not advisable to try to retrofit your home without the expertise of a professional. These projects usually require a consultation with a structural engineer and a plumber for any gas-related adjustments. Working with a professional earthquake retrofitting contractor is the best way to ensure that any structural work done to your home will help protect you and your family.
