Any idea of average cost of fortified roof installed per square.
Typical Certainteed, Gaf, Owen’s Corning, etc.

Generally about double the cost of standard install.

This Fortified Roof thing is sounding more and more like a sham every time I hear something new about it.

I had it worked into my insurance claim for a small out of pocket upcharge. I believe the paperwork from Pelican wanted in the $100/sq range. Buddy used premier south and they wanted $250/sq upcharge

What is this fortified roof system? I was thinking about reinforced trusses when I read the title, not shingles.

It's a process where we re-nail the decking 4" on center over the entire house. Then we use non granulated ice and water shield over the entire decking. Impact resistant shingles much be used. Bigger drip edge nailed at a different pattern. More labor intensive than standard. Did one that was 43sq. It cost the homeowner an extra $10k.
For the homeowners, it's more about weighing the cost benefits. How much off your premiums will getting a Fortified roof give you? How long until you can recoup the cost of the Fortified roof with the given premium discount?
