FORTIFIED Construction

FORTIFIED is a voluntary construction and re-roofing standard designed to strengthen homes, commercial buildings, and multifamily developments against severe weather, such as high winds, hail, hurricanes, and even tornadoes. 

There are three FORTIFIED standards – FORTIFIED Home™, FORTIFIED Commercial™, and FORTIFIED Multifamily™. 

There are over 35,000 homes that meet the FORTIFIED Home™ standard across the nation. During the record-breaking 2020 Hurricane Season, approximately 95% of the nearly 17,000 FORTIFIED homes impacted experienced little to no damage and had no insurance claims based on preliminary data.
