Wind Mitigation Inspection
A wind mitigation inspection is a specialized home inspection focusing on identifying features that enhance a building's resistance to high winds, such as those from hurricanes. These inspections are often required by insurance companies to offer homeowners discounted wind insurance rates.
What We Evaluate During a Wind Mitigation Inspection:
Roof Covering and Attachment: Assessment of the roof's materials and how securely they are fastened to the building.
Roof Deck: Evaluation of the roof deck's construction and strength.
Roof-to-Wall Attachment: Examination of how the roof is anchored to the walls to prevent uplift.
Garage Door: Inspection of the garage door's capability to withstand wind pressure.
Windows and Doors: Analysis of the types and strength of windows and doors in resisting wind pressure.
The Process
Our certified inspector will conduct a thorough evaluation of these critical areas. After the inspection, you will receive a detailed report outlining the property's wind mitigation features. This report can be submitted to your insurance company to potentially qualify for discounted wind insurance rates.
Why Choose Wind Mitigation Inspection?
It’s essential to understand that a wind mitigation inspection is distinct from a standard home inspection. This specific inspection is geared towards insurance purposes, helping you to reduce your insurance premiums while ensuring your home is better protected against wind damage.
