Portland, Oregon based Earthquake Tech owner, Steve Gemmell, walks the viewer through a typical home foundation retrofit project. Homes built before 1975 require foundation retrofitting and seismic upgrades to qualify for earthquake insurance. Houses susceptible to sliding and foundation buckling can also benefit from retrofits and SR walls, or foundation reinforcements. This video takes the mystery out of a home retrofit job and also includes the occasional comedic relief from Steve. Great for casual viewing and home improvement education.
