It’s the process of reinforcing homes or buildings with anchors, braces, tiebacks, and other systems so they can better withstand earthquakes.
Earthquakes and tremors can weaken your foundation over time. Our seismic strengthening solutions provide long-term structural reinforcement to keep your property safe when the ground shakes.

Western Washington experiences frequent seismic activity due to its location along major fault lines. Even small tremors can weaken a building’s structure over time, and larger earthquakes can cause catastrophic damage. Seismic strengthening reinforces foundations, walls, and columns to better withstand lateral and vertical ground forces.
Our team uses advanced structural repair systems — including seismic anchors, carbon fiber reinforcement, and foundation bracing — to permanently strengthen homes and commercial buildings. By reinforcing vulnerable areas, we help protect your investment and give you peace of mind when the ground shakes.
Earthquakes and tremors in Western Washington can cause walls to crack, foundations to shift, and entire structures to weaken. Our seismic strengthening process reinforces vulnerable areas with advanced engineering and durable materials, providing long-lasting protection for both residential and commercial buildings.
Step-by-Step Process:
It’s the process of reinforcing homes or buildings with anchors, braces, tiebacks, and other systems so they can better withstand earthquakes.
Our region sits on multiple fault lines and experiences hundreds of small seismic events every year. Without reinforcement, even minor tremors weaken structures over time.
Older homes, homes with unreinforced masonry, or those built on steep slopes are at the highest risk and benefit the most from strengthening.
No. Most upgrades are low-profile and installed in crawl spaces, basements, or behind walls where they aren’t visible.
Seismic strengthening times vary based on the size and scope of the project. For example, larger commercial retrofits may take longer while smaller, less complex projects may take less time.
Properly installed reinforcements provide decades of protection and bring your home up to modern safety standards.
In some cases, yes. Many insurers offer discounts for earthquake-ready homes.
Seismic strengthening is most commonly recommended for older buildings. However, newer structures can benefit from an assessment.
