Storms, claims and drone
Post-Hurricane Safety
After a hurricane or tropical storm, we document visible damage to the roof, openings and exterior and check inside for signs of water entry, so you have a record for your insurer and contractors.
What gets photographed
Findings are photographed and dated in the report.
- Roof covering: missing, slipped or cracked tiles or shingles
- Flashing, soffits, fascia and gutters
- Windows, doors, shutters and screen enclosures
- Ceilings and walls for new staining
- Attic, where it’s safe to enter
- Debris impact and exterior damage
What this inspection does
- Documents visible storm damage with photos
- Notes signs of water entry inside
- Gives you a record to support repair planning and a claim
What it doesn’t do
- Decide insurance coverage or claim value
- Determine cause beyond what can be observed
- Provide structural engineering conclusions

Safety first. If you see structural danger, downed power lines or smell gas, leave the area and call emergency services and your utility first.

Should I make temporary repairs first?
Where it’s safe, protect the home from more damage, like tarping or covering openings, and photograph everything before and after.
