San Pedro, California Residential Repair Specialists
Weinstein Construction is a proud, family-owned business serving California and the San Pedro area for over 45 years. Based in the heart of “Earthquake Country” — the San Fernando Valley — we’ve built a strong reputation for protecting local homes from the ground up. Founded in 1977 by Itzcik Weinstein, a longtime resident, licensed general contractor, husband, and father, our company has remained committed to helping homeowners throughout the greater Los Angeles region feel safe and secure in their homes.
For homeowners in San Pedro, their house is often their single biggest investment. Yet many don’t realize their home may be built on soft clay soil — the kind that swells in the rainy season and shrinks in the dry months. Add frequent earthquake activity into the mix, and it’s easy to see why foundation problems are so common in San Pedro.
If your home was built before the 1950s, it’s especially important to check whether your foundation has stood the test of time. Catching issues early can save you thousands down the line. Not sure about your foundation’s condition? Schedule a San Pedro foundation repair inspection today — before minor problems turn into major damage.
Call Weinstein Construction now to book your free, no-obligation foundation inspection! Our San Pedro experts will evaluate your home’s foundation, explain any damage, walk you through repair options, and work with your budget. Let us help protect your home from the ground up.
Not all homeowners know this, but homes in San Pedro operate as a holistic system. What we mean by that, is that every part of the home is interconnected with the rest of the home. This system’s “base” is its crawl space, which is the unfinished area under the home’s first floor, which often provides access to plumbing or wiring.
Most homeowners don’t every go inside their crawl spaces, as they are dirt-lined and frankly, can be nasty. But the truth is, homeowners should go inside their crawl spaces to make sure that these areas have not become a breeding ground for dangerous bacteria, mold, mildew, allergens, and pests (which can die in there and pollute the home’s environment).
The professionals at Weinstein Construction can help with your San Pedro crawl space encapsulation needs! We can provide homeowners in San Pedro with a free, no obligation crawl space inspection, to determine its situation. If it is found to be a humid, putrid mess, then the professionals at Weinstein Construction can offer a variety of solutions to help remediate the situation including crawl space encapsulation.
Property owners in San Pedro must stay compliant with California’s Balcony Inspection laws — SB 721 and SB 326 — which apply to multi-family housing, including apartment buildings and condominiums managed by HOAs.
If you own or live in one of these San Pedro properties, you’re required to ensure that all Exterior Elevated Elements (balconies, decks, porches, stairways, walkways, and similar structures more than six feet above ground) are inspected for safety. These elements, especially those made of wood or wood-based materials, are subject to wear and weathering — and can pose serious risks if left unchecked.
Many responsible San Pedro property owners are choosing to inspect and repair early to avoid long wait times and increased costs as demand for licensed balcony inspectors rises. Don’t get stuck in the backlog.
Schedule your free San Pedro balcony inspection consultation with Weinstein Construction today — and protect your investment, your residents, and your peace of mind.
Hundreds of commercial and residential property owners in San Pedro already know the risks their Soft Story buildings face when an earthquake strikes. These wood-framed, multi-story structures — often built before 1978 — typically feature large open spaces on the first or second floor or include “tuck-under” parking garages, making them especially vulnerable to seismic collapse.
If you own a Soft Story property in San Pedro, now is the time to act. Earthquakes aren’t a matter of if — but when. The Soft Story retrofit experts at Weinstein Construction are ready to help safeguard your building and the people inside it.
Call today to schedule your free Soft Story retrofit inspection and take the first step toward peace of mind before the next “Big One” hits.

WHY San Pedro CHOOSES WEINSTEIN CONSTRUCTION?
Weinstein Construction redid my foundation and retaining wall and I’m very happy with the work!
We had our basement retrofitted. Very courteous to us, very attentive. I was very impressed with the people who came to do the job. They were polite, well dressed, and really seemed to know what they were doing. We feel a lot safer now than we would have otherwise.
We had used Weinstein to earthquake retrofit our house. First, my intention was to do it myself, but we got a very nice sales rep over and he went through the whole procedure and by putting a thought into I concluded that it was not worth it for me to spend 14 days under the house. They came out, a top professional crew, they did it in a day, and we really loved what they did.
We are pleased with the results. The people were on time, they were neat, clean, and even the “big boss” was very nice and accommodating, so we’re happy with the services.
I was very happy. Very clean job. Very satisfied, and I recommend it to everybody.
We had our house retrofitted. Immediately we noticed the stability of it, even when we walked the house. Now it’s so much better and it’s stabilized, we’re very confident. It went very well and we’re very pleased.
They did a great job, they were on time, clean, and the price was right. I recommend you do the same.
House was built in 1933. They did the right job, they did a very good job and we’re very happy with the results. I recommend them.
