At JD Titan Roofing of Mobile, we build and repair roofs that meet or exceed FORTIFIED Home™ standards, designed to help Gulf Coast homes stand strong against hurricanes and high winds.

At JD Titan Roofing of Mobile, we build and repair roofs that meet or exceed FORTIFIED Home™ standards, designed to help Gulf Coast homes stand strong against hurricanes and high winds. One of the most critical parts of this system is the roof framing — the structural skeleton that supports your entire roof.
FORTIFIED standards require roof framing to be securely connected from the roof deck down to the foundation using hurricane straps, reinforced trusses, and metal connectors. This continuous load path helps prevent roof lift-off during extreme weather — something every homeowner in Mobile, AL should take seriously.
As a State Licensed Unlimited Builder (License #25918), JD Titan Roofing is qualified to perform all structural framing work legally and safely. Unlike basic roofers, we can repair or rebuild framing to FORTIFIED specifications, ensuring long-term strength and compliance with insurance and building code requirements.
If your home is in West Mobile, Spanish Fort, or Daphne, upgrading to FORTIFIED framing can reduce storm damage and even lower your insurance costs.

Roof Frame Inspections
Roof Frame Inspections
Roof Frame Inspections
Our process begins with a thorough inspection. We examine:
Rafters, trusses, and ridge beams
Support beams and joists
Roof decking and underlayment
Signs of wood rot, termite damage, or water intrusion
We use advanced moisture detection tools to uncover hidden issues that visual inspection alone might miss.
Neighborhood anecdote: In Grand Bay, we inspected a home where the owner noticed slight sagging in the attic. While the shingles looked fine, our team discovered moisture-damaged trusses in the middle of the roof. By reinforcing the trusses before shingles failed, we prevented what could have been a major roof replacement.
Roof Frame Repairs

Storm damage, water leaks, or age-related wear can compromise your roof’s structure. JD Titan Roofing provides legal and certified repairs under our Alabama Unlimited Builder license #25918.
Common repairs include:
Reinforcing weakened trusses
Replacing damaged decking or joists
Repairing ridge beams or rafters
Treating termite or moisture-related wood damage
You should always use alicensed general contractor in Mobile, AL.
Case study: After Hurricane Sally, a homeowner in Irvington had a cracked ridge beam. Our licensed team reinforced the existing structure rather than replacing the entire roof. This approach saved the homeowner nearly half the cost of a full replacement while keeping the roof code-compliant and structurally sound. Semmes & Saraland: Soil movement and humidity can subtly weaken framing over time.
New Roof Framing

Structural Reinforcement
Planning a roof replacement or building a new home? We design and install complete roof framing systems that are engineered for your property type, roof material, and Mobile’s environmental conditions.
Our new framing services include:
Gable, hip, and flat roof designs
Engineered truss systems
Heavy-duty framing for slate, metal, or tile roofs
Proper pitch, ventilation alignment, and load distribution
This ensures your roof is not only strong but also energy-efficient, with improved attic ventilation and load-bearing capacity to resist wind uplift.
Neighborhood insight: Homes in Theodore and Grand Bay often face high wind loads during Gulf storms. By installing reinforced trusses and hurricane clips, we reduce the risk of structural failure and increase the lifespan of the roof. West Mobile & Cottage Hill: Modern homes sometimes require structural upgrades during roof replacements.
Structural Reinforcement
Roof Framing for Different Roof Types
Structural Reinforcement
Not every home requires a full rebuild. Strategic reinforcement can address sagging, shifting, or weakened areas. Our team strengthens key load points, redistributes weight, and secures weak joints.
Reinforcement benefits:
Extends roof lifespan
Improves resistance to heavy rainfall and high winds
Using a state certified contractor for structural work assures you that the work is being done to the required standards.
Reduces insurance claims by preventing future structural damage
Local example: In Semmes, we reinforced an older home’s trusses that were beginning to warp from years of humidity. With proper reinforcement, the roof remained fully functional through a subsequent storm season. Midtown & Spring Hill: Older homes often need truss reinforcement and moisture protection.

Different roofing materials require specific framing considerations:
Asphalt Shingles: Standard framing with proper ventilation and weight distribution
Metal Roofing: Additional support and fastener reinforcement to handle expansion/contraction
Slate & Tile Roofs: Heavy-duty trusses and joists to support extra weight
Flat Roofs (TPO, PVC, Modified Bitumen): Engineered slope and decking for proper drainage
By tailoring the frame to the material, we ensure your roof performs optimally, resists weather, and lasts decades.
