"I wasn?t sure about doing hardscaping but Amit from EcoStar Remodeling gave us great advice and never pressured us. The finished patio and garden beds are stunning, they completely changed our backyard. Amit was honest about what would last and what wouldn?t, which we appreciated. He stayed on budget and the crew worked fast and clean. We love spending evenings out there now. Best decision we?ve made for our house."

"We hired Geico for a remodel of our master bedroom and bathroom and also our stairs. Jean was our project lead and did a fabulous job helping us design the new bath and stairs, including custom glass and ironwork. Carlos was our on-site supervisor and between them every little detail was taken care of, including some things that weren’t even in the original plan. Took a little longer than the estimate but a lot of that was waiting for materials to come in. Would definitely hire them again!"

"We had a very outdated guest bathroom that desperately needed a refresh, and after getting a few bids, we decided to go with Expert Home Builders—and I'm so glad we did. They weren’t the cheapest, but they weren’t the most expensive either, and their professionalism stood out. The project manager was always reachable, explained every step of the process, and made sure we stayed on schedule and within budget. The crew was polite, kept everything super clean, and even laid down protective coverings throughout the hallway. The end result is modern, elegant, and totally functional. My in-laws keep commenting on how nice it looks!"

FAQs for earthquake protection service projects in Sacramento, CA

A seismic retrofit helps stop a home from sliding off its foundation during an earthquake. Seismic retrofits also reinforce walls, ceilings, and chimneys to minimize damage. To complete your home’s earthquake retrofit, you can use several methods independently or together, depending on your home’s condition and architecture, such as bolting foundations, bracing foundations with a cripple wall, reinforcing walls and chimneys, and adding an automatic seismic gas shutoff valve.

If your house was built before 1980 in an earthquake-prone area, schedule a retrofit as soon as possible. Building codes didn’t require modern bracing and bolting until the early ’80s, so older structures are more likely to slide off their foundations. Even newer homes benefit from a pro inspection to confirm anchors, shear walls, and gas shut-off valves meet current standards. Spending on a retrofit today can spare you costly repairs after a major quake.

To determine if your house is bolted to its foundation, you should inspect the area underneath your home for visible bolts or metal foundation plates. Observing bolts extending through the sill plate or seeing metal connectors securing the structure confirms a proper retrofit installation. If you are uncertain or the area is difficult to access, hiring a qualified home inspector will ensure a reliable assessment of your home’s anchoring system.

A solid retrofit can help your house withstand earthquakes up to a 7.0 magnitude without sliding or collapsing. By bolting the frame to the foundation and bracing cripple walls, you cut the risk of serious damage and injury. Insurers are aware of this, so many offer lower premiums on properly retrofitted homes. In short, it’s a safety upgrade that also protects your wallet.
