One engineer s report for a client that was used to deny an insurance claim for a church with a wind damaged roof incorrectly described a tongue in groove roof covering as plywood sheathing identified the wrong date and the wrong windstorm when he incorrectly reported low wind speeds and failed to identify and record the fact that the steeple had been lifted and moved by a 100 mph wind. Beneath this was an older bur roof or built up roof that consisted of multiple layers of felt adhered with hot mopped asphalt.

Haag has a nearly century long track record of analyzing damage caused by weather phenomena including hail snow ice wind storm surge flooding lightning tornadoes and hurricanes. Our engineers will investigate damage to roofs due to design problems construction deficiencies excessive loading weather and seismic events mechanical damage maintenance issues and other causes.
