# SECTION 7: Elevation Image Requirements

# 1. Main Dwelling & Large Secondary Structures

(Detached Garages, Guesthouses or Workshops)

Elevation Images: Always begin at the front of the property and proceed: Right side → Back → Left side.

[ ] Overview of each elevation Front > Right > Back > Left
[ ] Capture the Left and Right segments of each elevation. If the property is large, this may require more than two segments per elevation to clearly document all visible features.
[ ] Get 1 close-up of siding if present, this makes it easier to determine what type of siding material the adjuster is looking at.
[ ] Capture 1 close-up image of all windows and doors within each segment. Ensure the image is clear — frames, beading, and screens must be visible, as we are specifically identifying any impact or wind-related areas of interest.
[ ] Capture Close-up of garage door, and a shot from a side angle to make it easy to see any dents from hail.
[ ] Capture 1 close-up Electrical Panel, Meter
[ ] Gas Meter
[ ] HVAC (Top overview, 3 sides and manufacture label)
[ ] Gutters: Capture from below using your device, or from above if using a drone.
[ ] Downspouts: Include one overview image and three close-up shots per downspout.
[ ] Soffits

(Toolshed, Covered Patio, or Gazebo)

Elevation Images: Always begin at the front of the property and proceed: Right side → Back → Left side.

[ ] Capture all structures with a roof such as a toolshed, patio, or gazebo (Exclude small plastic sheds – list under Contents)
[ ] Include key components: windows, doors, panels, etc. (if present)
[ ] Capture 1 Overview of each elevation F, R, B, L
[ ] Use same standards as main structure where applicable. E.g. Gutters, Metal roofs, Large Barn etc..
