FAQ
Every project is different, but some questions come up again and again. Here are straightforward answers to help guide your planning.
In many cities, yes—especially for soft-story apartments and unreinforced masonry buildings. Even when not mandated, voluntary retrofits reduce liability and position your property for compliance with future codes.
Yes. Retrofitting not only improves life safety but also preserves and can enhance resale value, while making properties more attractive to lenders, insurers, and tenants.
Retrofits don’t have to mean headaches for tenants. At Saunders, we coordinate closely with occupants and property owners to keep disruptions minimal. If challenges arise, we adjust by shifting work areas, rescheduling tasks, or adapting timelines as needed. Our team stays proactive with clear communication, so tenants know what to expect and properties remain operational throughout the project.
Absolutely. We regularly handle portfolios, applying consistent quality, communication, and reporting across all projects.
