Certified, Licensed, Bonded, & Insured.
Upgrade to a FORTIFIED Home™ in Metairie, Old Metairie, or Uptown.
Take advantage of the Louisiana Fortify Homes Program (LFHP). The LFHP grants up to $10,000 for homeowners to upgrade their roofs to the FORTIFIED™ Roof standard set by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS). The program will help Louisiana homeowners strengthen their roofs to better withstand hurricane-force winds and other severe weather.
In the Gulf South, a standard roof is often the bare minimum. A Fortified™ Roof is a scientifically proven system designed to strengthen your home against the devastating effects of hurricanes and high-wind events. Restorical Homes & Renovations is proud to be a certified installer of Fortified™ installations across Metairie and New Orleans, helping homeowners secure their legacies while often qualifying for significant insurance premium reductions.
Unlike a traditional roof replacement, a Fortified™ installation requires strict adherence to the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS) standards. When you choose Restorical Homes for your Fortified™ upgrade in Old Metairie, Uptown, or Lakeview, we implement:
Enhanced Roof Deck Attachment: We use specialized ring-shank nails, spaced precisely to double the uplift resistance of your roof deck.
Sealed Roof Deck: We apply a secondary water barrier over all plywood joints.
Locked-Down Drip Edges: We utilize drip edges and high-performance starter strips to prevent wind from catching the edge of your roof.
Impact-Resistant Materials: We install elite shingles from TAMKO, Atlas, or Owens Corning that are rated to withstand hail and flying debris.
Third-Party Verification: Every Fortified™ project is documented and verified by a certified evaluator to ensure your home qualifies for the official designation.
Investing in a Fortified™ roof in neighborhoods like Bucktown, English Turn, or Pontchartrain Shores provides more than just safety:
Lower Insurance Premiums: Many Louisiana insurance providers offer mandatory discounts for homes with a certified Fortified™ Roof.
Higher Resale Value: A “Fortified™” designation can be a massive selling point in the Greater New Orleans real estate market.
Superior Longevity: By reinforcing every weak point, these roofs naturally help to last longer and often require less maintenance over time.
Peace of Mind: When the next hurricane enters the Gulf, you’ll feel protected by the most resilient roofing system available.
We provide elite Fortified™ installations for discerning homeowners in:
Metairie & Lakefront: Old Metairie, Bucktown, Lakefront, and Pontchartrain Shores.
New Orleans Neighborhoods: Uptown, Garden District, Lakeview, Audubon, and Mid-City.
The Northshore: Covington, Mandeville, and Madisonville.
High-Value Enclaves: Specialized service for English Turn, Destrehan, and River Ridge.
Don’t wait for hurricane season to realize your roof isn’t up to the task. Upgrade to the highest standard of protection in the industry.
By meeting rigorous “Gold Standard” wind requirements (130mph+), these roofs qualify you for significant state-mandated premium discounts in Louisiana and Mississippi.
Homes that qualify for FORTIFIED include:
