Seismic retrofit can be done in any type of building - residential, commercial or industrial structures. It includes strengthening of structural elements and foundations, installation of seismic damping systems, addition of shear walls, bracing or strengthening floors.

​

Majority of residences in earthquake-prone locations built before 1980 require a seismic retrofit. Getting a seismic retrofit will increase safety, minimize damages, and can lower yearly homeowners insurance premiums.
