The ABCs of Residential Earthquake Retrofitting

Let’s make sure that your home is safe and reinforced against earthquakes. If your house was built before 1980, your home and family may be at risk during a significant earthquake. Learn about your older wood-framed home’s vulnerabilities, and the reinforcements and techniques typically employed to address those weaknesses. There is more to it than just foundation bolting! Presented by the region’s premier retrofit specialist since 1999. Leif Jackson has years of experience retrofitting single-family homes in the Puget Sound area. He has taught in-person seminars for homeowners at PNA, Seattle Home Show, NW Remodeling Expo, Historical Seattle, and others.
