Wind Mitigation in Orlando, FL

How Wind Mitigation Inspections Work

Our wind mitigation inspections thoroughly examine several critical components of your home, including:

• Roofing System: We inspect the roof’s structure, covering, and attachment to ensure it is strong enough to withstand hurricane-force winds. A well-secured roof is essential in preventing costly roof blow-offs and protecting the integrity of your home.

• Window and Door Protection: We evaluate the strength of windows, doors, and garage doors, ensuring they are impact-resistant or have proper storm protection measures. Reinforced windows and doors reduce the risk of wind-driven debris breaking into your home.

• Roof-to-Wall Connections: We assess how your roof is connected to the walls, ensuring the connections are fortified against high winds. Strong connections keep the roof secured to the home’s frame, reducing the risk of roof separation during severe storms.

• Secondary Water Resistance: We check for any water barriers in place to prevent water intrusion in case the roof is damaged during a storm. This extra layer of protection helps prevent interior water damage that can lead to mold and structural issues.

• Attic Venting and Bracing: We examine the attic's venting and bracing systems to ensure proper ventilation and resistance to uplift during strong wind events. Properly secured attic structures reduce the risk of uplift and help maintain the stability of the entire roof system.

Our detailed inspection report will outline the specific wind mitigation features your home has and recommend improvements that can enhance its storm resilience.
