Roof Damage

A recent property inspection we performed highlighted the impact of thorough documentation and evaluation. Initially, the recorded replacement cost value (RCV) for the property was listed as $64,896. After a detailed review and preparation of supplemental repair documentation, the updated scope of necessary work was determined to be $110,423. This example demonstrates the importance of comprehensive assessments in identifying the full extent of repair needs. Without a careful evaluation, homeowners may be unaware of the full scope of necessary repairs and the associated costs to restore their property properly. Conducting diligent inspections and preparing detailed estimates helps property owners understand the potential repair requirements and make informed decisions about restoration planning. Thorough documentation and clear estimates provide homeowners with a complete picture of their property’s needs, supporting better planning, budgeting, and project management.
