Wind Mitigation

Wind Mitigation

A wind mitigation inspection is the process of discovering how wind resistant your home or building is in the event of a hurricane or storm.

Our certified professionals inspect your property's wind-resistant features to detect issues that may cause significant problems when a natural disaster hits.

Our team will provide you with a detailed report covering the following:

Building Code
We will inspect your residential property’s compliance with building codes.

Roof Covering
Our inspectors will check your roof structure for materials like wood shakes and shingle, metal, concrete, slate, and clay tiles.

Roof-to-Deck Attachment
We will inspect the nails used to secure your roof and how long and evenly spaced they are to ensure that it is securely attached to the rafters.

Roof-to-Wall Attachment
We will evaluate the attachment method used to secure the roof to the walls. Our inspectors will look for single wraps, double wraps, anchor bolts, toenails, clips, or other attachments.

Roof Shape
Our team will assess the roof shape of your home or building. We advise property owners that a hip roof is an ideal option.

Secondary Water Resistance (SWR)
To ensure your property is protected against water intrusion, we will check if there is an added layer beneath the first layer of your roof.

Opening Protection
Our inspectors will check additional areas of your home or building, such as doors and windows, for their resistance to wind and debris. We will look for shatterproof windows and ensure everything is sealed and braced correctly.

Upon completion of the inspection, we will discuss potential wind premium discounts you can get. In many cases, your wind mitigation report will be certified for five years after the evaluation.

4-Point Inspection

Four-Point Inspection

Our company conducts four-point inspections to determine the approximate age and general condition of your property’s major systems, including:

Roof
We assess the general condition of the roof, attic, roof covering, insulation, skylights, and ridge vents. Our inspectors also look for
signs of leaks.

Plumbing
We evaluate the plumbing systems to detect leaks under sinks or around drains.

HVAC
Our professionals verify the heating and air conditioning units’ year, make, model, and condition. We also look for corrosion, leaks, and drain pan issues.

Electrical
We check the condition of electrical panels, grounds, breakers, wiring and masts.

Important Pointers
An insurance inspection should not be confused with a standard home inspection, which is more comprehensive in both detail and scope.

A four-point inspection is important when signing up for a new homeowner’s insurance policy or renewing an existing policy. It allows insurance companies to determine whether to insure the home in its current state or what improvements are needed to obtain insurance.
