Wind Mitigation and EIFS Insurance Forms

Insurance carriers price what they can verify. A sealed wind mitigation form and an EIFS letter give them something to verify.

What is included
  • Review of all available construction drawings and documents
  • Detailed visual inspection of the building structure
  • New and current insurance forms completed for the association
  • Signed and sealed by a Florida-licensed professional engineer

Wind mitigation

A wind mitigation inspection is a visual examination of a building structure's existing ability to withstand damage during a wind event. We review all available drawings and documents and perform a preliminary inspection to become familiar with the property, gather dimensional information, and collect other site data specific to the project.

We perform the wind mitigation inspection on each building structure the association needs inspected and complete the wind mitigation form provided by the association. Every form is signed and sealed by a professional engineer licensed in the State of Florida.

EIFS insurance letters

An EIFS inspection is a visual examination of how much exterior insulation and finish system is present on the exterior of a building. Carriers ask, because EIFS changes how a building is rated.

We inspect each structure the association needs inspected and write the EIFS insurance letter, signed and sealed by a professional engineer licensed in the State of Florida.

Who carries this work

Licensed and credentialed in waterproofing & restoration

Common questions.

Who can sign a wind mitigation form for a condominium?

For the commercial and condominium forms our clients carry, the inspection is performed and the form is signed and sealed by a Florida-licensed professional engineer.

Why does a carrier ask about EIFS?

Because the amount and type of exterior insulation and finish system on a building affect both the moisture risk the carrier is underwriting and the rate applied to the policy.
