Program details
How it works
The North Carolina Department of Insurance says the 2025 Strengthen Your Coastal Roof program provides grants to eligible NCIUA policyholders to upgrade their homes with an IBHS FORTIFIED Roof. The official announcement says the roof system includes stronger roof deck attachment, sealed roof decks, and locked-down edges, and that each installation is independently verified by a third party to meet IBHS standards.
What the money covers
The grant is specifically for an IBHS FORTIFIED Roof installation.
Amounts and matching
- Grant amount: $6,000
- Grants are awarded on a first come, first served basis
- The announcement says the program adds $20 million in funding for the remaining 18 coastal counties served by NCIUA
Timing and deadlines
The official announcement does not give a closing date on the page. It says eligible policyholders should apply promptly to reserve funding.
Extra homeowner note
The same announcement says NCIUA also offers a no-cost Stronger Roof Endorsement that can provide up to $5,000 in additional coverage for FORTIFIED Roof upgrades when a roof is replaced because of a covered claim. That endorsement is insurance coverage, not a cash grant.
