What Is Foundation Retrofitting?

Foundation retrofitting is the reinforcement of an existing structure to better withstand earthquakes, shifting soil, and other ground-related stresses. It’s not just an upgrade—it’s a critical defense system that preserves the integrity of your property and helps protect everyone inside.

Why Retrofitting Matters—Especially in California

Ventura County and much of California sit atop major fault lines. That makes foundation retrofitting a necessity. Whether you’re a homeowner or property manager, retrofitting provides:
Earthquake resistance to prevent structural collapse
