FAQ
Common questions about new roof installation for new construction and additions in the Garden District.

Yes. FORTIFIED focuses on installation methods and underlying systems rather than just surface materials. We can achieve FORTIFIED Gold certification using slate, tile, or other period-appropriate materials by employing proper deck attachment, sealed decking, and enhanced fastening systems.
