Fortified Basics
What Is a Fortified Roof?
A Fortified™ Roof is engineered to withstand strong winds and heavy rains that often accompany coastal storms and hurricanes. It’s not “just new shingles”—it’s a system of upgrades that work together to keep water out and hold the roof on when wind pressure rises.
How a Fortified Roof helps you:
- Reduce storm damage risk
more protection against wind uplift and water intrusion. - Lower long-term costs
fewer repairs after severe weather, longer service life. - Insurance advantages
many carriers recognize Fortified standards; discounts may apply (ask your insurer)
If your roof is 10–15+ years old, shows signs of aging (curling or missing shingles, leaks), or you simply want stronger storm protection, a Fortified upgrade is a smart move—especially with available grant funding.
Why Fortified™
FORTIFIED goes beyond building codes to improve performance against natural hazards and reduce the risk of personal property loss.
- Stay dry. A FORTIFIED Home helps protect your home and personal property from high winds and wind-driven rain.
- Get back home quicker. A FORTIFIED Home may reduce or eliminate time spent out of your home due to water intrusion if the roof is damaged.
- Save money. A FORTIFIED designation may qualify you
for annual wind mitigation credit that could lower your insurance premium. Check with your insurance agent
for specific policy requirements and potential wind mitigation credits in your area.
FORTIFIED Home™ is a nationally recognized building method based on more than 20 years of scientific research and real-world testing by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS).
FORTIFIED is a voluntary construction and re-roofing program designed to strengthen homes and commercial buildings against specific types of severe weather such as high winds, hail, hurricanes and even tornadoes.
Your roof provides the first line of defense against the elements and an IBHS FORTIFIED Roof™ provides better protection against severe weather
