Hurricane Milton Damage Inspections

Why do I recommend having hurricane Milton damage inspections completed?

It has been 2 years since hurricane Ian. Nearly each week I am still finding unrealized roof damage during real estate home inspections. It is highly recommended to have a hurricane Milton damage inspection completed.

Having unnoticed hurricane Milton roof damage, no matter how minor, may lead to significant problems. Storm damaged roof coverings will often cause rotted roof sheathing; water damaged insulation, water damaged ceilings and possible mold growth.

If you live in Southwest Florida and your home was affected by high winds from hurricane Milton, you may have roof damage that is not visible from ground level.

Hurricane Milton damage inspections of your roof start at $150 and can be completed promptly.

Beyond high winds which may cause roof damage, most areas of Southwest Florida are also subject to flooding from storm surge. Storm surge is the abnormal rise in seawater level during a storm, measured as the height of the water above the normal predicted astronomical tide. The surge is caused primarily by a storm’s winds pushing water onshore. The amplitude of the storm surge at any given location depends on the orientation of the coast line with the storm track; the intensity, size, and speed of the storm.

In addition to roof inspections, I also offer moisture intrusion inspections.

Having your home inspected following hurricane Milton can provide peace of mind. Should unknown damages be discovered, it will help prevent minor damages from becoming major issues.
