Hurricane Roof To Wall Attachment Retrofit Services You Can Trust!


For all kinds of 3rd Nail and Roof to Wall attachment retrofit services, you can rely on LGT Restoration Services. If your Florida home was built before 2000, your roof to wall attachments may only have one or two nails holding it to the truss.


The simple addition of a third nail into these attachments can help homeowners save 25%-35% on their home insurance premium and provide added security to protect your home if disaster strikes. Moreover, your entire home will get extra uplift protection from high winds. Our service is efficient, reliable, and professional. We service the entire state of Florida with our high-quality retrofit services.

The Ultimate Protection is the 3rd Nail and Hurricane Strap Retrofitting


Hurricane straps, also known as tie-down straps or hurricane clips, are essential in keeping your roof connected to the trusses during strong winds or hurricanes. However, one key element that adds to the effectiveness of hurricane straps is the 3rd nail. This additional nail creates a stronger bond between the roof and the trusses, improving the overall wind resistance capabilities of your home.
