What Is Shrink Wrap Roofing and Why Use It?

Shrink wrap roofing is a temporary roofing solution using heavy-duty plastic film that’s heat-shrunk to create a seamless, secure seal over damaged or exposed roofing systems. It’s significantly stronger, more durable, and more weather-resistant than tarps or plastic sheeting.

Here’s why homeowners and contractors choose shrink wrap roofing:

• Immediate Weatherproofing: Creates a watertight seal over the roof structure to prevent leaks and water intrusion. 
• Hurricane-Grade Wind Resistance: Unlike tarps, shrink wrap won’t flap, shift, or tear in high winds. 
• UV & Puncture Resistant: Protects your property from sun, wind, and falling debris. 
• Preserves Interior Integrity: Keeps water, mold, and pests out while you’re waiting on insurance, permits, or materials. 
• Flexible Coverage Options: Can be applied to the entire roof, damaged sections, or complex structures. 

This method is ideal for emergency storm response, fire-damaged properties, and delayed roofing projects where exposed structures need temporary shielding.

Our Complete Shrink Wrap Roofing Services

Dakota Roofing & Gutters delivers fully managed shrink wrap services using commercial-grade materials and expert installation methods.

1. Emergency Roof Wrap Installation

We rapidly deploy shrink wrap to cover exposed or compromised areas, protecting your property from further damage until permanent repairs can begin.

2. Full-Roof Shrink Wrap Coverage

For homes with widespread roof failure or total tear-offs, we shrink wrap the entire roof deck to maintain dry conditions inside while insurance assessments or weather delays are resolved.

3. Partial Roof Protection

We target specific damaged sections, such as missing shingles, blown-off slopes, or open valleys—minimising cost while maximising coverage.

4. Shrink Wrap for Construction Projects

We provide roof shrink wrapping for homes under renovation or construction that are at risk due to exposure, delivery delays, or weather interruptions.

5. Debris Containment & Fire-Damage Isolation

Shrink wrap can also be used to contain loose roofing debris or isolate burnt sections of a roof after fire incidents.

When to Use Shrink Wrap Roofing

Our team responds quickly to help you secure your roof in situations like:

• Major storm damage from wind, hail, or fallen trees 
• Fire damage requiring structural review before re-roofing 
• Insurance delays or disputes requiring temporary protection 
• Incomplete tear-offs during renovation with incoming rain 
• Building permits or material shipments delayed mid-project 
• High-end property protection during phased work or upgrades 

Shrink wrap provides a stable, waterproof solution when roofing work is disrupted or cannot begin immediately.

Our Shrink Wrap Installation Process

We follow a proven, efficient workflow that ensures protection without unnecessary delays:

Step 1: On-Site Inspection

Our team inspects the damage or exposed structure and evaluates the best approach for coverage.

Step 2: Quotation & Approval

We provide a transparent quote based on the area to be wrapped, complexity, and timeframe. Emergency requests are prioritised.

Step 3: Surface Prep & Cleanup

We remove loose debris, secure framing if needed, and prepare the area to ensure a tight wrap and long-term hold.

Step 4: Shrink Wrap Installation

We apply commercial-grade wrap sheets and use heat tools to shrink and seal the material around the roof, anchoring it to the structure securely.

Step 5: Final Check & Maintenance Plan

We inspect the full perimeter, ensure watertight performance, and advise you on how long the wrap can safely remain in place.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1. How long can shrink wrap stay on a roof?
Shrink wrap can typically remain effective for 6 to 12 months, depending on exposure conditions and site specifics. We provide maintenance if extended coverage is needed.

Q2. Is shrink wrap better than tarping?
Yes. Shrink wrap forms a sealed membrane that’s far more wind-resistant and waterproof than loose tarps. It’s safer, quieter, and lasts longer.

Q3. How quickly can you install shrink wrap after a storm?
In many cases, we can install shrink wrap within 24–48 hours of inspection. We prioritise active leaks and vulnerable structures.

Q4. Can I use insurance to pay for shrink wrap services?
Yes. Most policies that cover roof damage include shrink wrap under temporary mitigation measures. We can help provide documentation for your claim.

Q5. Do you offer removal once repairs are ready?
Absolutely. We return to remove the wrap cleanly once permanent roofing work is ready to begin—ensuring no damage to the underlying structure.
