Your roof is your home’s first line of defense. With a FORTIFIED Roof™, you can protect what matters most—your family, your investment, and your peace of mind.
The FORTIFIED Home™ program, created by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS), sets a higher standard for roofing and construction. It goes beyond code to reduce damage from hurricanes, high winds, and hail, keeping homes intact when others fail.
Why choose a Fortified roof
1.
Built for Real Protection
FORTIFIED Roofs are designed to resist wind uplift, water intrusion, and roof deck failure. Every component—from the sealed deck to the stronger edge attachments—is tested to perform when storms strike.
Sealed roof deck to prevent leaks
Reinforced roof edges
Stronger attachment systems
Verified installation by certified experts
2.
Earn Insurance Discounts
Homeowners in many states can qualify for insurance discounts up to 52% on their wind premiums by upgrading to FORTIFIED standards
(Discounts vary by insurer and certification level — Roof, Silver, or Gold.)
3.
Increase Home Value
A FORTIFIED Roof doesn’t just protect your home—it adds value. Buyers recognize the benefit of verified resilience, and insurers reward the investment. That means fewer repairs, faster recovery, and greater peace of mind.
