Wind Mitigation Inspection
Wind Mitigation Inspection
“Wind Mitigation” refers to building materials, techniques, and tools used to reduce the damage from a major hurricane.
Following Hurricane Andrew in 1992, The Florida Legislature implemented a My Safe Florida Home Program, now referred to as Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration.
As a result of this program, insurance companies began offering discounts on premiums for eligible homes.
Therefore, encouraging Floridians to take preventive measures and increase the safety of their homes.
