Large-Loss Roof Consulting in Florida
Snow Consulting is available in Florida for large commercial, institutional and multi-building roof losses, including hurricane and wind claims.
Hurricane exposure and code
Florida experiences more hurricane landfalls than any other state, according to the Florida Department of Health's BRACE climate and health program.[1] The Florida Building Code's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone provisions (Section 1620) set specific design wind speeds for Miami-Dade and Broward Counties, for example 175 mph for Risk Category II buildings in Miami-Dade and 170 mph in Broward.[2] Large-loss roof work there often turns on how the existing system was attached and what the code requires for the replacement.
Large-loss engagements only
Outside Texas and Oklahoma, Snow Consulting focuses on large losses: big commercial, institutional and multi-building claims and projects.
