## Why Metal Roofing Makes Sense in Coastal Wilmington

**Hurricane Resistance**: Standing seam panels resist 130-160+ mph winds — far superior to standard asphalt shingles.

**Salt Air Durability**: Aluminum and Kynar-coated steel resists coastal corrosion for decades.

**Lower Lifetime Cost**: Replace asphalt shingles 2-3 times over a metal roof's lifespan — often more economical long-term.

**Energy Efficiency**: Reflective metal panels reduce cooling costs by 10-25% in Wilmington's hot summers.

**Low Maintenance**: No granules, no curling, no algae. Inspect fasteners periodically and you're done.

## Metal Roofing & FORTIFIED Roof Standards

For Wilmington NC homeowners looking for maximum storm protection, metal roofing is one of the best materials for meeting **IBHS FORTIFIED Roof** standards. The FORTIFIED Roof program, developed by the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety, requires roofing systems to withstand 140+ mph wind uplift — something standing seam metal roofing exceeds naturally.

**Why metal roofing qualifies for FORTIFIED certification:**

- Standing seam panels with concealed clips resist wind uplift far better than nailed shingles
- Metal panels interlock continuously — no individual shingles to blow off
- Proper fastening patterns meet or exceed FORTIFIED wind-resistance requirements
- Metal roofs installed to FORTIFIED specs can qualify homeowners for **insurance discounts** and **NC fortified roof grants** (up to $6,000 in some areas)

Mendoza Roofing installs metal roofs built to FORTIFIED specifications. Ask about FORTIFIED certification when you request your free estimate.
