Why Choose a Fortified Roof?

November 8, 2024

When building a new home, you want more than just comfort and style—you want strength and durability that will stand the test of time. At Manuel Builders, we know your family deserves a strong home. That’s why we proudly offer FORTIFIED Roof™ options, certified to provide enhanced protection against hurricanes, high winds, hail, and severe thunderstorms.

What Is a FORTIFIED Roof™?

The FORTIFIED Roof™ designation is a part of the FORTIFIED Home™ program developed by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS). This standard is designed to improve the performance of your roof during severe weather events, making it more resilient than standard roofing. A FORTIFIED Roof™ goes beyond typical emergency and disaster preparedness, providing advanced construction techniques and materials that help protect your home and investment.

The Benefits of a FORTIFIED Roof™

  1. Enhanced Protection in Severe Weather
    Living in areas vulnerable to hurricanes and strong storms means your home needs extra reinforcement. A FORTIFIED Roof™ provides added protection against intense winds, rain, and flying debris, significantly reducing the risk of structural damage and leaks.
  2. Peace of Mind for You and Your Family
    Severe weather can be unpredictable, but with a FORTIFIED Roof™, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your home is built to withstand nature’s harshest elements. Feel safe in your space, knowing it’s designed with your family’s security in mind.
  3. Long-Term Investment
    Your roof is one of the most crucial parts of your home, and a FORTIFIED Roof™ helps you protect this important investment. Not only can it reduce damage in a storm, but it can also lead to potential savings on insurance premiums, as many insurers recognize the added resilience of a FORTIFIED home.
