What Is a Fortified Roof?

A fortified roof is a high-performance roofing system designed to withstand severe weather conditions, including high winds, heavy rain, and hail. Built to the standards of the FORTIFIED Roof™ program by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS), this system adds extra layers of protection where homes are most vulnerable—starting at the roof.

Why Choose Fortified Roofing?

  • Severe Weather Protection: Reinforced against hurricanes, tornadoes, and hailstorms.

  • Insurance Incentives: Many insurers offer discounts for homes with fortified certification.

  • Peace of Mind: Reduces your risk of damage, loss, and costly repairs.

  • Stronger Homes: Engineered to perform beyond standard building codes.

Who Needs Fortified Roofing?

Fortified roofing is ideal for:

    • Homeowners in coastal or storm-prone regions

    • Anyone upgrading after storm damage

    • New builds seeking premium protection

    • Insurance-conscious homeowners looking to reduce premiums

    • Real estate investors seeking long-term durability

Roof Types We Can Fortify

We can apply Fortified standards to most common residential roof systems:

  • Asphalt Shingles

  • Metal Roofs

  • Low-Slope Roofing (certain criteria apply)

Whether you’re re-roofing or building new, we’ll inspect your existing setup and recommend the right fortified solution.
