Understand what the inspection may document.
Use the report before requesting contractor quotes.
What to organize before the visit
- Property address and basic home facts
- Insurance declarations page
- Roof records or prior permits
- Prior wind-mitigation reports
- Photos or records for windows, doors, garage doors, or roof work
- Access notes for attic or other areas if requested
What the report may document
The inspection may observe roof covering, roof deck attachment, roof-to-wall connections, secondary water resistance, opening protection, windows, doors, garage doors, and other relevant storm-hardening details.
After the report arrives
Do not jump straight into a contract. First identify what is already documented, what improvements are recommended, which openings or roof details are involved, and what questions should be asked before quoting.
How to use it with contractors
- Ask for quotes that match the recommendations
- Request permits and product approvals when relevant
- Compare the same scope across contractors
- Keep a folder for insurance and closeout records
Best next step
If the inspection is scheduled, prepare the documents. If the report has arrived, review it before requesting quotes.
