Common Damage – Doors and Windows

The doors and windows category includes all exterior and interior doors and windows. These should be assessed for breakage, warping, and damage to weather seals.

If any hardware or seals need to be replaced, these will count towards the element’s damage percentage.

In flood events, doors and windows are also often a good place to begin your search for a high-water mark, as sediment tends to get trapped in the corners and crevices of these elements of the structure.
