Julian Construction Tells Public How to Be Safer in an Earthquake

Julian Construction, Inc., (http://www.julianconstruction.com), a foundation repair and construction company in Los Angeles, continues their efforts to educate homeowners about foundation maintenance and the importance of ensuring their home’s foundation is up to modern standards of earthquake resistance.

Southern California has one of the highest incident rates for earthquakes in the entire United States and Los Angeles is right in the middle of that earthquake zone. If you’ve lived here long enough you’ve probably had your fair share of mild quakes but if you’ve experienced a larger earthquake you know how devastating the effects can be.

Julian Construction takes earthquake safety seriously and specializes in foundation repair and construction. Julian De La Torre, founder of Julian Construction, stated “If you have an older home you may have insufficient, out-dated, or missing attachments securing the house to the foundation. However, if your foundation is in good condition you may not have to completely replace your foundation to make your home safer in an earthquake. Foundations can be retrofitted to make them stronger and more stable during the next quake. Earthquake retrofitting has helped secure foundations for homeowners whose home structure would otherwise be potentially vulnerable to heavy damage in the event of an earthquake.”

“You shouldn’t have to worry about whether your home will be safe in the event of an earthquake. You should rest easy, knowing your home rests on a structurally sound foundation. We can inspect your home to find out what steps are needed to get it there.”

Julian Construction owns its own company and is built on a “no middlemen” model – no salesmen, no subcontractors. When you work with Julian Construction you get the principals of the company and workers of Julian Construction under your home. The result is the highest quality work at affordable prices.
