The Types of Roof Tarping

Throwing a blanket over your roof won’t help protect your home from a hurricane’s destructive forces. There are different commonly used tarps that are seen protecting residences across the state of Florida. Find out what makes roof tarping such a big part of our utility belt.

Poly Tarps

The Blue Tarp (also called Blue Poly Tarps) is a material often used to protect roofs made with layers of Polyethylene plastic. These are lightweight waterproof components that also have the bonus of being: heat, tear, mildew, abrasion and UV Ray resistant. They come in a variety of colors, weights and even features that give residents the option to get what’s best for them.

Vinyl Tarps

Another roof tarping champion comes in the form of an extremely durable cover, a Vinyl Tarp. You can call this the “Incredible Tarp” because of its resistance to punctures, tears, abrasions and the other shared features from Poly Tarps. These are heavier tarps whose main purpose is also to protect anything underneath its cover. When you need immediate protection for your roof, Vinyl/Poly tarps are major factors in keeping your house secured in a storm.
