The Wind Mitigation Inspection will lower you insurance premium. 

The Wind Mitigation Inspection verifies the appropriateness of the structure construction in the event of a windstorm or hurricane and is a valuable service that might reduce your insurance rates. Wind Mitigation Inspections look for building features reducing damages during a high wind event.

• The State of Florida enforces insurance companies to offer reduced premium for homes with hurricane resistant features.
• As per Florida Statutes, insurance companies need to offer discounts or credits for construction techniques that can reduce losses in windstorms.

What does the Wind Mitigation Inspection look for?

• Structure built in compliance with the 1994 South Florida Code
  (Dade and Broward) or 2001 FBC.
• Roof covering with permit application after 1994 in Dade and Broward
  or 2002 in the rest of the State.
• Deck material, spacing and roof deck attachment.
• Roof to wall attachment.

• Secondary water barrier or resistance.
