Highly recommend for ESS (Earthquake Soft Story)! Altamira just finished an ESS seismic retrofit at our house in Oakland and my wife and I are very happy. Oscar was a great communicator and educator on the project and navigating the CEA ESS program related plans and permits, and ensured the project was competitively priced and well managed. Daniel and his crew performed the work, and were very professional, courteous, and tidy. They completed the work on time and within budget, and completed almost all of the CEA ESS application for us. A wonderful team and experience for us. Thank you, Altamira!

I had such a a great experience with Altamira doing my earthquake retrofit. They responded quickly, came out to review the house shortly after, and handled everything just as efficiently. They are so professional and friendly. If you need anything repaired and it's a service that they provide, I'm telling you, it's a no brainer. Hire them for the most stress-free process. Thank you, Altamira!

Altamira did some foundation repairs on our 100 year old home and did an excellent job! They gave us a fair assessment of our foundation and a good price for the repairs. Arrived on time and finished the work when they said they would. They were very communicative throughout the whole process and always kept us in the loop as the project progressed.

They also suggested future work to water proof our foundation and were honest enough to tell us how we could get that work done for less.

I highly recommend Altamira for any construction project you may have.

We would highly recommend Altamira to others for their seismic retrofit projects - ours involved bolting and shear wall installation. We were referred to Altamira by our structural engineer. They had the most competitive bid we received from multiple contractors the engineer referred us to. Everyone we worked with (Daniel, Oscar, Ricardo, and Gerardo) were friendly, respectful, and skilled at their roles. They made the process easy and efficient both for the administrative tasks (photos, permits) and the construction itself. Throughout the project, they kept the work area and staging areas clean and well organized. We also appreciated their willingness to answer questions and help us better understand how the different aspects of the project were strengthening our home. We feel very confident in their work and are now resting more easily knowing our home is more secure.

Altamira provided excellent customer service and was very thorough with each step of the project when repairing my foundation along with earthquake retrofitting. They were also very punctual with their expected timeline.

Daniel, Oscar and Ricardo were a pleasure to work with. Their response time was pretty fast when you had a question for them and they addressed any concerns that I had. They also took the time to educate me on what was going on with my foundation as they were repairing it.
I would highly recommend Altamira to anyone that needs foundation or earthquake retrofitting work done.
