What is Wind Mitigation?

Wind mitigation is the process of assessing a structure's ability to withstand high winds caused by severe weather events, then taking steps to make any necessary improvements. Because the Winter Haven and Lakeland, FL areas are prone to very high winds, wind mitigation is an essential aspect of home building and maintenance here. Proper wind mitigation can reduce the cost of your claims, improve your home's energy efficiency, and help you meet local regulations. Wind mitigation services can be good for your home at any point, no matter its age or condition. This is an ongoing process; as buildings age and weather conditions change, you might find that your home becomes less able to withstand winds. Ongoing care and attention to your wind mitigation needs will help your roof, along with the rest of your home, stay intact for many years to come.


The process of wind mitigation usually involves a detailed inspection from one of our experienced professionals. We will then make recommendations for improving your structure's wind resistance. These recommendations may include:


  • Impact-resistant windows and doors
  • Improved ventilation to reduce the risk of wind pressure buildup
  • Hurricane straps for your roof
  • Reinforcements for your foundation and walls


Once we make our recommendations, we can help make arrangements to resolve any issues that we might have found. Our goal is to maximize your structure's wind resistance as much as possible!
