The Great California Shakeout Emergency Drill Set for October 15 – Check the Safety of Your Home

Julian Construction Urges Homeowners and Renters to Inspect Their Homes for Earthquake Safety

Founder of Julian Construction (http://www.julianconstruction.com), Julian De La Torre, knows that you can’t schedule the next earthquake, or where you happen to be when it happens. Given the large percentage of time spent at home, the odds are that you will be in or around your home when the next one arrives. “There are excellent resources on the internet related to earthquake preparation.”  Julian De La Torre says. “Emergency Survival Program’s ‘Is Your Place Safe’ (http://www.scec.org/education/public/espfocus/May_06.pdf) is a great place to start. Earthquake Country Alliance’s Dare to Prepare website (http://www.earthquakecountry.info/daretoprepare/secure_your_building.html) is also very good.”

De La Torre recommends that everyone consult one or both of these sites, then take a look at their residence with an eye to earthquake safety. “Securing the home is one of the major steps Californians can take with the Great California Shakeout earthquake preparedness drill approaching on October 15.” Julian said. “We are happy to inspect anyone’s foundations and let them know what is needed. We also provide 0% financing for those who need to finance any needed repair or retrofit.”
