Brace & Bolt: Get $3,000 for Strengthening your Home’s Foundation

Brace & Bolt: Get $3,000 for Strengthening your Home’s Foundation

If you own a home in Eagle Rock, Highland Park, Pasadena (see the complete list of zips below) that was built prior to 1979, is on a slope with a raised foundation and constructed with a 4 ft or less cripple wall, you may qualify for up to $3,000 towards strengthening your foundation!  Space is limited and will be determined by a random drawing.

The Earthquake Brace + Bolt program provides homeowners up to $3,000 to strengthen their foundation and lessen the potential for earthquake damage. A typical retrofit can cost between $2,000 and $10,000.

Houses that meet the state building code retrofit criteria typically were:

  • constructed before 1979
  • built on a level or low slope site
  • constructed with a four-foot (or less) cripple wall under the first floor
  • have a raised foundation

Homeowners must complete the qualification questionnaire answering questions about their house and agree to the terms of the program to be considered for participation in the program.

 

There are several locations in Northern and Southern California that will be included in the program. These areas were selected because they have a high concentration of houses that meet certain state building code retrofit criteria for existing single-family buildings.

As of January 15, 2015 houses must be located in the following ZIP Codes to be eligible for participation in the program.
