When it comes to soft story retrofits, the demo phase is where precision meets preparation. At Sinai Construction, we know that the foundation for a strong retrofit starts with a clean, efficient removal of the original structure. That’s why we rely on professional-grade equipment like our heavy-duty concrete saws to get the job done right—quickly and safely.
During the demo phase, the existing foundation of the soft story building is carefully cut and removed. Our team follows detailed engineering plans and works only after permits and inspections are secured. This ensures that utilities like water and electrical lines are not compromised during the process.
Using high-performance tools like our concrete saws, we can make precise cuts that reduce mess, minimize disruption, and keep the overall project on schedule. It’s just one of the ways Sinai Construction maintains the highest standards of safety and quality from the very beginning of each retrofit.
Stay tuned as we move into the framing and reinforcement stages—where your building starts to gain the strength it needs for seismic safety.
