Improvement 1: Strengthening Roof Deck Attachments

Issue: Roof shingles nailed to plywood sheets may not be securely fastened to roof trusses.

Solution: Adding more nails or using longer nails to significantly reduce the risk of plywood being blown off during a hurricane.

Improvement 2: Reinforcing Roof-to-Wall Connections

Issue: Roofs may detach from walls during high winds.

Solution: Installing metal tie-down clips that securely attach roof rafters to walls, preventing roof lift-off.

Improvement 3: Creating a Secondary Water Barrier (SWR)

Issue: Water intrusion during heavy rains and storms.

Solutions:

  1. Full-Coverage Self-Adhered Underlayment: Applied directly to the roof deck during reroofing.
  2. Seam Tape: Used on all joints and seams of the roof decking material, followed by a nailed-down underlayment like felt paper during reroofing.
  3. Foam Adhesive: Applied on all seams and joints from the attic side of the roof when reroofing isn’t an option.

Improvement 4: Window Protection

Issue: Vulnerable windows during hurricanes.

Solution: Installing impact-resistant windows or hurricane shutters to shield your home from flying debris and strong winds.

Improvement 5: Exterior Door Protection (Including Garage Doors)

Issue: Standard doors and garage doors may not withstand hurricane forces.

Solution: Installing hurricane-rated exterior doors and upgrading standard garage doors to hurricane-rated versions.
