How do I Unlock Additional Features?

Here is all that you need know about unlocking the Building Code Detail and Weather History Report

The Building Code Detail is the most comprehensive add-on we offer. This add-on covers everything in the Jurisdictional  Overview has, but adds an extra layer of detail to support what Building Codes are required for this project.

The Weather History Report provides you with up to date wind and hail data that occurred within a 3 mile radius of the property you have searched. The wind and hail reports spans back 3 years to give you a comprehensive history of severe weather that occurred in the area. 

Creating the Jurisdictional Overview is the first step in providing a defensible estimate, but not the last.
