Living in Glendale means real quake risk—and real savings with the EBB Program Glendale. This state grant can cover up to $3,000 of your retrofit. Golden Retrofit & Foundation Repair has already helped 1,300+ homeowners complete EBB projects across SoCal, including Glendale. Below is exactly how to qualify, apply, and finish fast—without the paperwork headaches.
What Is the EBB Program?
The EBB Program is a California initiative designed to help homeowners retrofit older houses that are especially vulnerable during earthquakes. Retrofitting strengthens the foundation by adding bracing and bolting — making sure your home is anchored securely and less likely to shift or slide off its foundation during seismic activity.
For Glendale homeowners, this isn’t just about safety — it’s about financial peace of mind. With retrofitting costs ranging anywhere from $3,000 to $7,000, having up to $3,000 covered by the state makes the project significantly more affordable.
Why Glendale Homes Benefit Most
Many of Glendale’s historic and mid-century homes sit on raised foundations or have crawl spaces. These designs are beautiful but highly vulnerable to shaking if not reinforced. Earthquake retrofitting adds stability without altering the charm or style of your home, giving you protection while preserving character.
