Grants
Available to Fortify Your Home.
​
​​
From Mr. Moore:
"Buyers, beware of contractors offering to install a fortified roof for under $10,000. If your roof is larger than 1,300 square feet (13 squares), it is impossible to provide a fortified roof for that price. Additionally, roofs smaller than 13 squares that require additional decking will also exceed the $10,000 cost."
