Retrofit Improvements: Attachment of Shingles

During a hurricane or other extreme storm, roof shingles can be damaged or blown off the roof, exposing the underlayment as the only protection against rainwater. A damaged roof can allow rainwater to enter the building that could saturate insulation and damage roof sheathing, ceilings, interior finishes, and household contents. Severe water damage can occur if the exposed underlayment is compromised.
