How Extended Dry-In Membrane Could Help Protect Homes Post-Storm

Rpoofing in Houston

From hurricanes and hail to tornadoes, roofers face unique challenges protecting storm-damaged roofs—especially during unprecedented times such as shingle supply challenges facing the entire industry.

Rather than struggling with roof tarping, move beyond the blue tarp with a longer-term solution and weather storm season safely with a premium solution like GAF Extended Dry-in Membrane.

Safeguarding Roofing Systems through Extended Dry-In Membrane

Use this peel-and-stick membrane when major storm-damaged structures with roof slopes of 2:12 and above are open to rain, large portions of a roofing system are blown off, or a home is left vulnerable to further leaking, storms, and damage.

Install this when you need to protect the home until a major roof system repair or replacement can occur. The product's design maintains its integrity over time, even in the face of moisture and UV exposure.

Tackling Storms through Technology

Traditionally, a blue tarp protects homes until permanent repairs or replacement can occur.

A blue tarp is better than nothing—but over time it may degrade. Once it degrades, wind and water can get under the tarp, and the remaining roof structure can start to degrade. "It's not a dry-in solution."

The Extended Dry-In Membrane offers enhanced wind, tear, and UV resistance versus a blue tarp. After all, it was specifically designed for roofing—tarps were not. This membrane offers:

Premium butyl adhesive that tightly bonds to most roof decks

A high-traction surface for improved contractor safety during wet and dry installation

Leak-resistant self-sealing around fasteners

A high-temperature design that can tolerate temperatures up to 270° Fahrenheit and is compatible with most metal and asphalt shingle roofing systems

The ability to be left exposed for up to 12 months

Extended Dry-In Membrane has a robust adhesive that bonds directly with the wood deck. Even exposed to the elements, it is covered by warranty for up to 12 months*. It won't flap around in the wind or degrade.

Roofers aren't the only ones who benefit from improved dry-in solutions. A premium, longer-term dry-in solution offers customers greater benefits compared with alternatives like tarping. Educate homeowners to help them understand how this investment can save them money in the long run.

Helps resist water damage until a roof repair or replacement can occur, thanks to premium adhesive and surface channels that guide away moisture.
