FAQ
Fortified Roofs FAQs for Barton Creek, TX
Answering your questions about fortified roofs services in Barton Creek.
What is a FORTIFIED roof and why should I get one?
A FORTIFIED roof is built to standards developed by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS). These roofs are designed to withstand severe weather including hurricanes and high winds. Benefits include reduced storm damage, potential insurance discounts, and increased property value.
How much can I save on insurance with a FORTIFIED roof?
Insurance savings vary by location and carrier, but homeowners in hurricane-prone areas can see discounts of 15-55% on their wind/hail premiums. Louisiana and coastal areas often offer the highest discounts. Contact your insurance provider for specific savings in your area.
Can my existing roof be upgraded to FORTIFIED standards?
In some cases, yes. If your roof is in good condition, certain FORTIFIED requirements can be met through upgrades like sealed roof decks and enhanced fastening. However, many homeowners choose to upgrade to FORTIFIED during a full roof replacement for maximum protection and value.
