A FORTIFIED Roof is a roof system built to a resilience standard from IBHS, designed to help keep wind and rain out during severe weather. It’s made to work with many roof types, including shingles and metal.
Key requirements include stronger roof edges, a sealed roof deck to reduce water intrusion if the roof covering is damaged, and improved roof deck attachment (often using ring-shank nails and an enhanced nailing pattern).
FORTIFIED is a voluntary construction and re-roofing program developed by IBHS to strengthen homes (and other buildings) against severe weather such as high winds, hail, and hurricanes.
Yes. The FORTIFIED Roof standard was designed to strengthen roof systems using many roof cover types—shingles and metal are two of the most common.
Typically, you work with a FORTIFIED-trained contractor (like Fortified Exteriors) and an independent FORTIFIED evaluator; the evaluator documents key steps/materials during the project and submits the paperwork for the designation.
In Alabama, once the required documentation is submitted, IBHS notes the designation process is often fast—frequently under 48 hours, though timing depends on complete paperwork and documentation.
Many Alabama insurers offer discounts on the wind portion of homeowners insurance based on the level of FORTIFIED designation; IBHS lists typical ranges (for example, FORTIFIED Roof is often 25–35%), but exact savings depend on the carrier and policy.
Strengthen Alabama Homes is a program of the Alabama Department of Insurance that, when funded, provides grants (often up to $10,000) to help eligible homeowners retrofit to the FORTIFIED Roof standard; Fortified Exteriors promotes support as an SAH grant contractor. Always verify current eligibility and application windows on the program site.
Fortified Exteriors lists multiple financing pathways (including NEIF, SELF, Hearth, and Affirm), with approvals, rates, and terms depending on the program and your application—so the best next step is to review options and pre-qualify where available.
