Keep roof protection distinct from ground-level flooding
Use Savannah's operational flood and road notices to plan access before scheduling roof work; an appointment is not an access permit. Then record the water entry points separately. Ask for protection against rain through the roof opening without assuming it addresses ground-level water or that both losses fall under one coverage type.
