FORTIFIED ROOFING WILMINGTON NC
Homes in Wilmington and New Hanover County and surrounding areas face heavy rain, high winds, humid coastal conditions, tropical storms, and hurricane-season roof stress. A standard roof replacement may solve age or leak problems, but a Fortified roof upgrade adds stronger installation details designed for coastal weather.
Improved roof deck fastening helps strengthen the connection between roof decking and framing.
A sealed roof deck helps reduce water intrusion risk if shingles or roof covering are damaged during a storm.
Enhanced edge details help protect vulnerable areas where wind uplift
often starts.
Fortified upgrades are designed for homes exposed to coastal weather, wind, and heavy rain.
We provide clear project scope, materials, and installation details before work begins.
Quality installation, jobsite cleanliness, and proper project oversight.
We inspect the roof, storm damage, leaks, roof age, ventilation, decking concerns, and overall roof condition.
You receive a written proposal outlining replacement options, Fortified upgrades, materials, scope, and pricing.
Once approved, we coordinate deposit, material ordering, scheduling, and project preparation.
Our crew completes the roof replacement with professional oversight, cleanup, and a final walkthrough.
Why the process matters
A roof replacement is more than new shingles. The details underneath matter — from inspecting the roof deck and sealing vulnerable areas to using proper edge protection, ventilation, flashing, and wind-resistant installation methods. RGR Construction and Roofing follows a detailed roofing process built for coastal North Carolina homes.
Clear communication, honest recommendations, and dependable follow-through from the first inspection to final cleanup.
Roofing systems installed with attention to decking, underlayment, flashing, ventilation, edge protection, and manufacturer guidelines.
We protect your property during installation, pick up loose nails, remove roofing debris, and haul everything off when the job is complete.
Photos help document important details throughout the process, including roof deck condition, installation progress, & completed work.
RGR vs shortcuts
| Roofing Detail | RGR 5-Star Roof | Common Shortcut |
|---|---|---|
| Decking | Roof stripped to deck and inspected. | Old felt may be left in place, hiding damage. |
| Leak protection | Ice and water shield at key vulnerable areas. | Ice and water may be skipped to reduce cost. |
| Underlayment | Synthetic CertainTeed underlayment. | Basic felt can tear and offer less protection. |
| Edges | Drip edge and fully adhered starter strip. | Edges may be under-protected. |
| Shingles | 6 nails per shingle with precise nailing pattern. | Nailing pattern may vary by crew. |
We take steps to protect your property during the roofing process, including careful debris control, cleanup around the home, and final nail pickup with magnetic sweepers.
Eligible roofing systems may qualify for CertainTeed warranty upgrade options, giving homeowners added protection backed by trusted roofing materials.
Before we leave, our crew removes roofing debris, picks up loose nails, and hauls off project trash so your home is left clean, safe, and ready to enjoy.

I was approved for the grant within days, and less than a week later my new roof was installed.\ Not to mention, very shortly after they wrapped up we had a big flash coastal storm that put the new roof to the test almost immediately! I highly recommend RGR!
