Extent of Lightning Strike Damage

As with most property damage claims, the main challenge when assessing a lightning strike is finding the full extent of damage. Lightning typically strikes in a concentrated area and often high up and out of sight. Lightning also travels through the structure along metal lines, conduit and wiring that is hidden by drywall or cladding. Finding the full extent of lightning related damage requires the use of experts who know where to look.

We find the full extent of lightning related damage:

  • Is there damage to appliances or electronics?
  • Are the phone, security or other electrical systems affected?
  • Were mechanical equipment or gas lines affected?

We find you the facts to help move your investigation, litigation, or claim forward.
