Why Mercer Seismic

Founded in response to a broken market.

Mercer Seismic was founded after observing firsthand how Seattle's residential seismic retrofit market operates in practice — and how rarely it operates in the homeowner's interest. The firm exists for one purpose: to provide homeowners with the independent structural engineering advocate the industry is designed to exclude.

Mercer Seismic does not sell construction. It does not partner with contractors. Every engagement is structured to serve the homeowner exclusively — with the professional accountability of a stamped engineering document behind every finding and recommendation.
