Earthquake Retrofitting in Long Beach, CA
Earthquake Retrofit LA provides foundation bolting, cripple wall bracing, and chimney bracing for Long Beach homes — with a free evaluation first and a straight answer about whether your house needs work at all.
Why Long Beach Homes Get Retrofitted
Long Beach has one of the oldest housing stocks in the county — craftsman bungalows from the 1910s–20s on raised foundations, with original unbolted sills and brick chimneys throughout the older neighborhoods.
The 1933 Long Beach earthquake is the reason California has school seismic laws at all — and the city's older bungalows are exactly the era of house that bolting and bracing were invented for.
