What type of physical damage are HAAG Certified Reviewers trained to identify?

HAAG Certified Reviewers are specifically trained to identify hail and wind damage, which is critical in the context of property inspections and insurance assessments. These natural events can cause significant structural and cosmetic damage to buildings, roofs, and other surfaces, which can lead to costly repairs if not accurately identified.

Understanding the characteristics of hail damage, such as impacts on roofing materials and siding, as well as the effects of wind on structures, is essential for a reviewer to provide an accurate assessment. This knowledge allows for better reporting and helps property owners and insurance companies navigate claims effectively.

While fire damage, mold issues, water penetration, freeze damage, and general wear and tear are important considerations in property assessments, the specific focus on hail and wind damage is a defining aspect of the training for HAAG Certified Reviewers, enabling them to specialize in these types of claims and damages.
