What we do: trustworthy, top-tier retrofitting for compliance.

When you are involved in the sale of a property, the last thing you want to have to worry about is complying with state and local ordinances. Metro Retrofitting offers our services to make sure your sale is never held up by compliance requirements.

California state building code mandates certain specifications for every structure to ensure that the building is safe for any inhabitants. Additionally, there are specific code requirements that dictate how these retrofits are to be implemented. These ordinances include:

  • Carbon monoxide detectors

  • Smoke detectors

  • Strapping and bracing for your water heater

  • Sliding door impact hazard glazing film

  • Automatic seismic gas shut-off valves (that turns off gas in a 5.1 or greater earthquake)

  • Water conservation devices such as high-efficiency toilets, shower heads, and faucet aerators

Along with the state’s requirements, each city may have additional compliance regulations in place. We keep track of all the nuances of these compliance laws so you don’t have to.

At Metro Retrofitting, we are experts in the ways compliance laws change from city to city and will ensure that your building complies with the relevant ordinances so you can close escrow.

Whether your property needs to be upgraded for safety or water conservation, you can trust our expertise to make all necessary changes. We are well-versed in all California, Los Angeles, and Ventura County safety and water conservation regulations. We’ll make sure your property complies so you can focus on what you do best.

Retrofitting for Real Estate

Our specialty is in helping real estate deals close. We help you get the necessary Certificate of Compliance quickly and easily so that you can close escrow in a timely manner.

Whether you’re buying or selling a property, don’t let it leave escrow without this certificate in place. We can help you ensure that all the legally mandated safety and conservation measures are in place so they don’t create a hiccup – or outright disaster – during or after the selling process.

When you work with Metro Retrofitting to get your Certificate of Compliance, you can rest easy knowing the property has been comprehensively examined by a professional and all the relevant required actions have been taken. If you’re a seller or seller’s agent, you’ll be glad to know this relieves you of liability. And if you’re a buyer or buyer’s agent, you’ll be able to rest easy knowing the property you just purchased is fully retrofitted per state and local ordinances.
