catastrophe

Haag Engineering has a nearly century-long track record of analyzing damage caused by catastrophic events and weather phenomena, including hail, snow, ice, wind, storm surge, flooding, lightning, tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, wildfires, and more. Haag’s expert forensic engineers are ready to mobilize when a catastrophe strikes. We will be there to establish cause and extent of failure and damage to various types of affected structures, including residential and commercial properties, industrial and agricultural facilities, municipal and other government buildings, electrical and mechanical equipment, machinery, and more. Following a catastrophe, Haag engineers’ analyses assist with safe entry, reduce business interruption, and help get a business or property back on its feet as quickly as possible.
