What is a Fortified Home?
A Fortified Home™ is one in which you add muscle to how it is engineered and built using very specific upgrades which help lessen the destruction which can occur from specific natural threats. There are three levels of designation, Bronze, Silver and Gold that build on each other. This lets you choose your goals, budget and level of protection.
Bronze Level
The focus is on roof cover, decking, attic ventilation and soffits.
The focus is on opening protection systems and how the gable of a roof is built and how roofing overhangs are fastened.
Silver Level
The focus is on developing a continuous load path system from the foundation up to the roof.
Gold Level
To Strengthen Against Specific Natural Events
Better Insurance Rates
