FORTIFIED Grant Program FAQs

Good news for North Carolina homeowners! A new federal grant program is available through their trusted local roofing company, Southern Premier Roofing. We’re offering the Fortified Grant to help homeowners around Wilmington NC with roof repairs and restorations using roofing services that meet FORTIFIED standards.

Who is FORTIFIED?

FORTIFIED is a construction method and standards designed by the Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety (IBHS) to provide the most storm damage protection for homes. A roof constructed to FORTIFIED standards is rated to withstand up to an EF-2 category tornado and a Category 3 hurricane.

What is the Fortified Grant Program?

Along with the IBHS, the North Carolina Insurance Underwriting Association (NCIUA) is offering a program for NC homeowners to upgrade their home exterior and roofing to meet the FORTIFIED standards.

What are the requirements for the program?

Not every North Carolina homeowner qualifies for this roof improvement grand program, but your trusted local roofing professionals, Southern Premier Roofing, can go over them with you. Here are a few Fortified Grant Program requirements.

  • Your home must be in the Outer Banks and/or the Barrier Islands areas of NC. This is because these areas are highly susceptible to hurricanes and extreme weather.
  • You can be an NCIUA homeowner with a homeowner’s wind policy that you’ve held since at least June 1, 2020.
  • NCIUA dwelling and wind policyholders since at least July 1, 2020.
