Overview:
A Wind Mitigation Inspection evaluates how well a home is built to withstand strong winds and hurricanes — a key concern in Florida. The findings can significantly reduce the cost of homeowners insurance by identifying features that lower the risk of wind damage.

What’s Inspected:
We examine and document key structural elements designed to improve wind resistance, including:

• Roof Covering – Type, material, age, and code compliance

• Roof-to-Wall Connections – Clips, straps, or other hardware securing the roof

• Roof Deck Attachment – Type of decking and how it's fastened to the structure

• Roof Geometry – Shape of the roof (hip, gable, etc.), which affects wind performance

• Secondary Water Resistance – Underlayment or sealing that prevents leaks if shingles fail

• Opening Protection – Impact-rated windows, doors, shutters, or panels

Purpose & Benefits:

• Helps homeowners qualify for insurance premium discounts

• Identifies upgrades that can further reduce wind-related risks

• Offers peace of mind by confirming the home’s structural readiness for storms

• Often required by insurers when seeking wind mitigation credits

Delivery:
A standardized report with photos and documentation will be provided, ready to submit to your insurance company for review.

Note:
This is not a full structural inspection, but a specific evaluation of wind-resistant construction features.
