As of May 1, 2019 seismic retrofits in Glendale, CA are completely voluntary. But the city of Glendale is expected to pass an ordinance to require the seismic retrofitting of older, wood-frame buildings, known as "soft-story" buildings later this year. We've created this website to help property owners like you learn more about seismic retrofits.

Alexander Rodriguez of Bay Cities Construction was presented with a Certificate of Appreciation from the Building & Safety Dept. of Glendale earlier this year.

The retrofit process starts with an assessment of your current property - a licensed architect, engineer, or contractor will help you get a better idea of what type of retrofit solution your property will need. Then an engineer will help you develop a set of plans with a retrofit solution to submit to the city. Once approved, construction can begin.
