A Stronger Roof for Severe Weather
FORTIFIED Roof is a voluntary, beyond-code way to build or replace a roof, based on decades of research by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS). It uses multiple layers of defense to stop a cascade of damage that can start at the roof and spread through the whole home in high winds, and each FORTIFIED standard is verified by a third party. Spending a few hundred extra dollars when you replace your roof can save you thousands in damage later, and can help keep you in your home after a storm.
NAIL IT DOWN:
stronger connections keep the roof deck on your house.
LOCK IT IN:
reinforced edges protect one of the roof's most vulnerable areas.
SEAL THE DEAL:
covered gaps between deck boards keep rain out, even if shingles are lost.
You still choose your material. Asphalt shingles, metal, and tile can all qualify, as long as the roof meets the FORTIFIED Home testing requirements. Ask Prime Roofing whether a FORTIFIED Roof is right for your home at (888) 581-3940.
FORTIFIED is a program of the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS), an independent, nonprofit, scientific research organization supported by the property insurance industry. Learn more at fortifiedhome.org.
