Wind Mitigation Inspection

We Offer Wind Mitigation Inspections in Florida!

A wind mitigation inspection returns a report that informs the insurance company of a home's construction in order to determine its stability in the event of strong winds. A homeowner with windstorm insurance can often submit this report to their insurer and obtain discounts on their policy.

Wind mitigation inspections look for construction features that have been shown to reduce losses in hurricanes. The factors found during the inspection which help determine a home's stability are the age of the home, to determine what building codes were in place at the time of construction, if roof covering was installed according to certain building codes, how they attach themselves together (e.g., with nails or straps), and whether there is protection against openings on your house or not? This rating is determined by stickers on windows and doors made by manufacturers as well as any form of hurricane shutters you might have had installed for your house- having some rated windows/doors doesn't count!
