I never imagined our seismic retrofit project could go so well or I wouldn't have procrastinated so…read morelong to get it done. My husband and I knew we should get earthquake insurance but the cost blew our minds but when we heard that you can get a 25% discount if you complete the retrofit, we explored what it would entail. Well the EBB subsidy which came out to $3,000 was a huge motivator. Selection: To select a company to work with I went overboard reading reviews, not just looking at ratings- Yelp, Google, Angi, Houzz. Plus, I always look at Next Door because our city is finicky so I wanted to see which companies had delivered excellent experiences for homeowners in our city and lastly I look at Reddit. I invited 3 highly rated companies with excellent track records to provide quotes based on the work required. Out if the 3, two came, went into our crawl space and provided a detailed breakdown of the necessary work and cost with photos. The third company provided a quote over Yelp without coming in person to do a visual inspection. So they were eliminated from consideration. The remaining two which included Sunshine were excellent and after putting together a side by side comparison of the work and costs along with their answers to some initial and follow up questions from my husband ( who was a 35 yr construction industry executive), we selected Sunshine and specifically Adam who was the lead that came to our house and who provided detailed and technical responses that instilled so much confidence. EBB approval: Well from there, it was like we had a retrofit concierge with Diana guiding me through every step which is necessary because there are things that need to be done on the EBB website to ensure compliance to receive approval and given Sunshine's vast experience, they have it down to a science which eliminates a ton of confusion I am sure I would have had to face without them. The retrofit work: The team was on time, had detailed instructions, and worked diligently the entire time they were here and they provided photos of their work. And a bonus was I didn't have any clean up to do afterwards. I need to note that out of an abundance of caution Adam ( who is also a licensed electrician) came back out to take care of a wire that looked suspicious but was probably not an issue. If he had not mentioned it, we would not have known City inspection and approval: A breeze! The gentleman that dealt with the city came by after to give us the good news and it was apparent he was trusted by the city inspector. Retrofit completion certificate Diana expeditiously provided the certificate i needed to provide my insurance broker to get quotes after instructing me on how to complete the final EBB steps Success! We now have earthquake insurance and saved 25% off the premium. Side note: get your quote from GeoVera and not the Earthquake Authority. our quote for better coverage by a more highly rated company saved $1,500 in annual premiums So, for a project that seemingly would have been a bear, it was probably the easiest construction like project and process I could have imagined that gives us added confidence in protecting our home. Do it and include Sunshine in your short list. you will be happy you did.

During the so cal rain in Nov 2025, the north facing side of my house began to noticeably show…read morecracks in the walls and misalignment of doors. This was an indication that my house was sinking a bit due to the really spongy dirt the houses in my area are built on. I solicited for foundation repair jobs on Yelp where I came across Sunshine foundation repair. After back to back estimate appointments, I met Jonathan who was knowledgeable and professional. He explained what could have been the cause of my issues (all of which aligned with what other companies told me) and was friendly an professional. The experience was one of those where you know the estimator isn't BS-ing you or trying to take advantage of protentional new customer business. After getting an estimate that was competitive with others, I decided to go with Sunshine Foundation Repairs. The office staff was also friendly and helpful in clarifying the process of the job which was to install new concrete pier-blocks embedded in concrete with pressure treated posts as well as to perform some minor foundation repair. When it came time to do the work, the team showed up on-time and prepared. They finished the job in a single day and cleaned up in and around the area, which I was pleased to see. The crew was nice as well. I haven't had any major rain to see if the foundation repair met my needs so time will tell. However, the overall structural integrity is an improvement that gives me the peace of mind for my home investment. I would highly recommend Sunshine Foundation Repairs.
