very impressive. Contacted Bay Area Retrofit about retrofitting my home, Howard replied within the day that my home was in a geologically safe area and not worth spending anything on a retrofit. So refreshing to not be sold something I don’t need. AAA+++ Thank you
Howard is highly knowledgable and ETHICAL. These days, I think the later is hard to find, but Howard has maintained honest business practices. It would have benefited him financially to just sell me a product, but he didn't do that!

Even if you are getting other quotes, I strongly recommend talking to Howard before making a decision about who to hire and what to do to retrofit your home.
We chose Bay Area Retrofit because we watched the videos and got the impression that they did a better job than other companies. We knew that we would have to wait longer and were patient.

Howard helped me with questions about a retrofit repair to my house structure. In the end, I needed the services of an engineer to which he provided a referral. I'd highly recommend starting any questions you have with them. They are clearly experts in their field with comprehensive explanations and a long history of sharing their experience through their (very helpful) website. Five star experience. Helpful and fast responses. What a gem of a resource for Bay Area homeowners.
A very honest company. Howard came out to my house, after providing a lot of information via email. We just moved here and we did not know if our home needed retrofitting for earthquake protection. Howard thoroughly checked our whole house, the crawlspaces, etc., and told me that because the house was newer and was custom built with an engineer, they had already included the things that a retrofit would bring. At the end, he said he didn't recommend any changes, but he did say earthquake insurance was a good idea for us beca... read more
