Resilience refers to how much stress an object can absorb and retain its original state. Living in California we are all very aware of the risk we face in the event of a wildfire or earthquake.

Resilient upgrades including wildfire construction hardening and seismic strengthening not only keep you safer and reduce the cost of operating your home, they can also increase resale value. Every renovation or improvement presents an opportunity to adopt sustainable, resilient materials and building design to promote your family's health and wellbeing.

In this workshop we will review areas of concern along with building materials and techniques that will help make your home more durable when disaster strikes. We’ll also discuss the County’s property based financing program to help you get your project done.
