Why Retrofitting Is Essential
Vancouver is located in an active seismic zone, making homes vulnerable to earthquake damage. A professionally installed earthquake retrofit secures your house to its foundation, preventing it from shifting or collapsing during a seismic event. This crucial step not only protects your loved ones but also safeguards your most significant investment. Learn more about our comprehensive retrofit process.
Our Proven Process
Our process begins with a detailed, on-site assessment of your home's foundation and structural integrity. We then develop a customized retrofit plan using high-quality materials and proven techniques to strengthen key connection points. Our experienced Vancouver technicians execute the plan efficiently and with minimal disruption. Schedule your free consultation to get started.
Crawl Space & Foundation Strengthening
A key component of our earthquake retrofit service in Vancouver is reinforcing your crawl space and foundation. This involves bolting the sill plate to the foundation and adding shear walls to prevent lateral movement. We also address any existing foundation issues to ensure a solid and stable base for your home. Our team is ready to assist you.

What our customers are saying
Amazing experience with this company!
"I contacted several foundation repair companies and I'm so happy that I found Tyler and WCS. The company replied to my questions quickly, the team that came over was professional and courteous, the repair on my foundation fixing the level was top notch work. I highly recommend this company!"
- Zeth O
Western Construction Systems came out and did exceptional work at my house!
"They went above and beyond my expectations! They were friendly, professional, and hard-working! They took care of all the issues that I had concerns with and then some! Their prices were fair, especially for the high quality of work that they did! I know I pestered them with questions, but they were patient every single time. Before I contacted them to have the work done, I had high anxiety about the drainage issues. When they were finished, I felt confident that there were no more issues. Peace of mind is priceless!"
- Robyn S
Tyler, Juan and their crew did an amazing job at our home.
"They installed their gutter system and were finished in just a few days knowing that we didn't have our hot water heater connected. They are great with communicating and assessing a situation to figure out what needs to be done. Highly recommended!"
