STRENGTHEN YOUR HOME AND SAVE MONEY ON YOUR HOMEOWNER'S INSURANCE
For many of us, buying and owning a home is one of the most important investments we make in our lives. When we make this investment, we expect our homes will protect us and serve as a safe haven from hurricanes. To better protect ourselves and our homes when a hurricane hits, we must also invest in building standards and techniques that will strengthen our homes and communities against the catastrophic damage that hurricanes inflict.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOUR HOME IS HURRICANE RESISTANT?
You can start with a Wind Mitigation inspection. The inspection will identify what wind mitigating attributes are present and what you can do to harden your home against violent wind storms and hurricanes.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOUR HOME IS HURRICANE RESISTANT?
Before you can improve your home’s ability to withstand a hurricane, you need to know how hurricane resistant it is today. The inspection will be conducted by a qualified wind inspector trained in wind-resistant building techniques. The inspector will explain what wind mitigating attributes are present and what improvements can be made to strengthen your home against hurricanes and what insurance discounts are available to you if improvements are made. Homes that are strengthened with hurricane-resistant attributes are less likely to suffer serious damage in a hurricane. Homeowners who invest in strengthening their homes will be entitled to a range of discounts on their homeowners insurance premium, depending on what and how many of the recommended improvements are made.
