Overview: Some risks in life are worth taking, like commuting to work in heavy traffic or making an investment decision. Others aren't, especially at home, the one place you want as few risks as possible. That's why the Fortified: for safer living program was developed. Every area of the country is prone to some type of natural disaster or extreme weather event. The Fortified program raises your home's overall safety above the minimum requirements set forth in building codes. This is done by paying extra attention to areas especially vulnerable to disasters, including door and window openings, roof construction, and foundation and even landscaping.
