The endorsement for FORTIFIED Roof (formerly known as FORTIFIED Bronze) is available only in Alabama.
Fortified Roofs enhance a home's resilience against severe weather by ensuring the roof stays intact and prevents water infiltration. Developed from extensive research, a FORTIFIED Roof protects against wind and wind-driven rain.
This coverage insures for the extra costs of upgrading a roof to FORTIFIED Roof standards, including the necessary expenses for FORTIFIED certification.
"FORTIFIED Roof" refers to the entry-level tier of the "FORTIFIED Home™ Program." It does the following:
- Improves the attachment of roof sheathing
- Ensures a sealed roof deck
- Reduces the risk of attic ventilation system failure
This certification applies to a complete roof replacement, cannot be used to upgrade an existing roof, and is subject to the standard claims process.
