Common wind damage mitigation upgrades
There are a variety of improvements that can limit wind damage. Even if your home is insured, repairing wind damage can still be costly. That is why A NO Dealers offers wind mitigation solutions that protect your home from damage and prevent expensive repairs.
Our qualified contractors will conduct a wind mitigation inspection to determine which upgrades are necessary. There are several techniques to consider for wind mitigation, including:
Roof deck attachment
We start by examining the condition of your existing roof deck. Any missing or loose shingles or roof tiles should be replaced. In [state], the roof covering should be rated to resist high winds and fastened using nails, not staples. If you're planning on having your roof replaced, you should choose a material with a higher wind rating that is also code-approved in [state].
Whether you need a roof repair or replacement, our expert roofers can help you select the best roof material for your home.
Roof-to-wall connections
When hurricane winds hit your home, they not only push against the walls but also pull up on the roof. The best way to protect your house from hurricane wind damage is with a continuous load path. This load path is created by connecting the entire structure with special hurricane straps and clips. Your roof is connected to the walls, which are secured to your home's foundation.
Retrofitting your home with roof-to-wall connections will improve your roof's wind resistance and can lower the cost of your insurance premium. Many older homes in [state] were not built with a continuous load path, so they aren't able to withstand high winds.
Gable-end bracing
A gable end is the triangular-shaped section of a wall between roof pitches. Since gable end walls are the highest peak on most houses, they are exposed to the strongest winds. If a gable end wall is not properly braced, it can collapse and cause significant damage to your home. Luckily, gable-end bracing is one of the easiest hurricane retrofits and should be considered in your overall wind mitigation plan.
Secondary water resistance & roof sealant
Adding an extra layer of protection to your roof can help prevent water from leaking into your home if the shingles are blown off during a windstorm or hurricane. The most common solutions for roof sealing are a self-adhering modified bitumen underlayment or a foam seal that's sprayed on the underside of the roof deck.
Window & door opening protection
In a hurricane, glass windows and doors will likely be damaged. Hurricane shutters are a cost-effective solution for securing window openings in a storm. Home inspectors in [territory] also recommend installing shatter-proof windows and doors.
