Fine Design Build is a third generation, design-build company. We shepherd our clients, working side by side, with architects and engineers that we have long-standing relationships with, pushing design past traditional scope limitations. We navigate through the challenging permitting, involving shorelines development, ECA steep slope areas, wetlands. Permitting can be a huge challenge particularly on waterfront parcels. We are experts at removing obstacles and creatively designing homes with minimal to zero impact to environment. After designing your home, we shepherd you through the challenging environment of building. We are very selective about our team and in our rare circumstance as a company, the general contractor, is onsite performing a good percentage of excavation, storm water management, septic, concrete, framing and finishes. We have a unique approach with full transparency where money is spent. The customer has their foot on the gas petal/brake throughout the entire build.

"Best contractor ever. At Fine Design Build the service received was like none other, quality, craftsmanship, in both work and design. We will be forever pleased with house build that we received."

Earthquake Retrofitting questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.
