The Foundation Works is your source for effective foundation solutions, as we have been for thousands of others. Our services begin with a detailed inspection in order to determine the condition of your foundation. This involves a thorough inspection of not only the foundation itself, but also the exterior perimeter and interior of the building as well.
Without proper strengthening, soft story buildings may be subjected to structural failure during and/or after an earthquake. Our in-house engineering, soft story, and stucco departments will guide your retrofit project through from start to finish.
Seismic retrofitting is the process of adding additional hardware, plywood, and framing lumber to the foundation area of a building in a way that heightens its readiness and helps protect it during seismic activity.We are known throughout the Greater Los Angeles Area for our honest, fast, and thorough foundation inspections and improvements.

This section may seem quite disrelated to the subject of foundations, soft-stories, earthquake retrofitting, etc, but it is not at all a mistake that it is here! This is not an offer to perform services for our clients, it is instead more of a gift of gathered information as presented by some of the visionary leaders in an emerging subject that for many reasons, is long overdue!

Beyond that, properties in or going into escrow, insurance inspections, and investment properties do have inspection fees and vary accordingly.
