Evergreen Seismic, LLC is the Puget Sound's most trustworthy residential earthquake retrofit contractor. Our mission is to provide the highest quality of service, along with the most affordable prices. We take great pride in our work, and customer safety and satisfaction is our number one goal. Our clients demand and deserve excellence and we are committed to meet these expectations each and every time. We offer the experience of hundreds of retrofit installations, along with the highest quality products, valuable design and engineering, and stellar results.

"Matt and the Evergreen Seismic team were communicative, honest, and collaborative throughout our retrofit. When I reached out initially, he helped me learn about the retrofit process, and even encouraged me to consider doing it myself. I really appreciated that — it'd be so easy for a professional in his position to scare a client into getting the work done, but he did the opposite. He also gave us a competitive quote, and offered to match any other we got elsewhere. I ultimately decided to hire him, and was glad I did. He and his team got the work done in a timely and orderly fashion. Our foundation turned out to be a little unusual, which took more time than anticipated, but he walked us through what they were doing to accommodate the difference, and did not ask for an additional fee for the extra time spent. They handled all the city permitting and mailed us the paperwork to keep on file."

Earthquake Retrofitting questions, answered by experts

A home with proper earthquake retrofitting can sustain minimal damage in earthquakes of up to 7.0 magnitude, although risks are higher based on how close and deep the earthquake is. A home closer to the earthquake epicenter will sustain greater damage, especially if the earthquake is closer to the surface of the Earth, but retrofitting can help minimize the risk of injuries.

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.

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.

Many homeowners want to know whether earthquake retrofitting is tax deductible. Because it’s often considered a capital improvement, you usually can’t deduct it. In some cases and locations, you may qualify for tax incentives, but you’ll need to talk to a tax professional or the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) about your specific circumstances. You may also be able to find grant money for seismic upgrades, which can lower the cost of your insurance premiums and save money over time.

Earthquake gas shut-off valves, or seismic gas shut-off valves, are safety devices that attach to your natural gas line. When an earthquake hits, the valve automatically turns off the flow of gas. Earthquake gas shut-off valves can prevent gas leaks, which are especially dangerous after a quake due to the risk of fire and explosion.
