In areas prone to hailstorms, the FORTIFIED™ standard uses shingles that have been tested by IBHS to demonstrate their ability to withstand hail up to 2 inches in diameter.
You don't need a hurricane or tornado to damage your roof. Even mild storm winds, clocking in at a mere 50 mph, possess enough force to inflict damage and allow water to infiltrate. FORTIFIED™ presents a solution that protects your home by pinpointing vulnerabilities in traditional construction methods.
By choosing FORTIFIED™, you're getting a comprehensive set of enhancements that work in harmony to protect your home against severe weather. Each FORTIFIED™ solution is meticulously tailored to deliver the precise level of protection required, perfectly aligned with the unique weather conditions your home faces.

First, check your policy. If the reason you want a new roof is not covered, you may be on your own. If not, you can work with your insurance company to pay for some, if not all, of the new roof.
Be sure to document the damage in writing and pictures. Pictures help make your situation clear, especially photos with timestamps. The more evidence you have, the better. Also, check the age of your roof.
Insurance usually covers roofs under 10 years old, but coverage for older roofs may be limited. Your final step is to get a professional opinion and an estimate on the cost of repair or replacement.
If your roof professional says repairs will save the insurance company in the long run, they will likely help pay. Storm Guard will help you file your claim and start the repair process.

Can I Install New Siding Over Old Siding?
Yes, in some cases you can install new siding over old siding—but it's not always the best option. The existing siding must be in good condition and free from rot, mold, or structural issues. If there's hidden damage, covering it up can lead to bigger problems later.
Storm Guard will inspect your current siding, identify any repairs needed, and recommend whether an overlay or full replacement will give you the best long-term results. This way, you get a solution that's both safe and cost-effective.

Can Emergency Tarping Be Used for Siding or Windows?

Storm Guard can quickly secure tarps over these areas to prevent additional problems. We make sure everything is tightly fastened and weather-resistant until permanent repairs can be completed, keeping your home safe and reducing the risk of more costly damage.
What Kind of Tarps Does Storm Guard Use?
Storm Guard uses heavy-duty, weather-resistant tarps to withstand rain, wind, and sun exposure. These tarps are durable, reinforced, and securely fastened to prevent shifting or blowing away during storms. They provide reliable short-term protection for roofs, siding, and windows until permanent repairs are made.
With professional installation, Storm Guard ensures your property stays safe, minimizing further water or storm damage while repairs are scheduled and completed.
How Often Should I Repaint My Home's Exterior?
Most homes benefit from repainting every 5–10 years, depending on siding material, paint quality, and local climate. Harsh sun, rain, humidity, and temperature extremes can shorten the paint's lifespan.
Storm Guard uses premium paints and professional preparation techniques to help your exterior last longer. Regular maintenance, inspections, and timely touch-ups can also extend the life of your paint, keeping your home looking fresh while protecting it from weather-related damage.
Do You Offer Color Consultation Services?
Absolutely! Choosing exterior paint colors can feel overwhelming, so Storm Guard provides professional color consultation to help you pick shades that complement your home, fit your style, and enhance curb appeal.
