Wind mitigation inspections are designed to identify potential problems before they become major issues. They involve checking the integrity of roof structures and other building components, such as windows, doors, walls, and skylights. The goal is to prevent damage caused by high winds.
A wind mitigation inspection is typically performed after a storm or hurricane has passed. It involves inspecting roofs, gutters, downspouts, chimneys, and other areas where water might accumulate.
A wind mitigation inspection is an evaluation of your roof structure and how it performs during high winds. The purpose of a wind mitigation inspection is to protect the property against future damage caused by strong winds.
During a wind mitigation inspection, Florida State Inspectors will examine the roofing system and look for signs of deterioration or damage. We will also inspect the flashing around chimneys and vents to make sure there are no gaps or holes. and check for any cracks or breaks in the shingles or tiles. If we find any issues, we will note those findings and provide you with recommendations about how to repair the problem.
A good wind mitigation inspection includes an analysis of the building’s envelope: the roofing system, walls, windows, door frames, skylight, gutter systems, downspout systems, and any other openings and penetrations. This helps identify potential areas where additional protection measures could be added to prevent water intrusion into the building.
In addition to protecting the building, a properly designed wind mitigation system reduces insurance premiums. Insurers use the data collected during wind mitigation inspections to calculate the cost of insuring a property. If the building passes the inspection, it receives a lower premium.
