The Reusable Shingle Tear-Off Tarp
Built specifically for roofing contractors, Humphrys shingle tear-off tarps are engineered for the demands of roof tear-off work season after season. The iron mesh construction features a smooth, slick surface that allows shingles, nails, and debris to slide off cleanly without perforating or abrading the tarp, so you won’t need to replace it after every job.
Humphrys roof tear-off tarps are available in three sizes to fit your most common jobs: 20' × 30', 30' × 30', and 30' × 40'. Order the size that fits your work, or stock all three for a full season of tear-off jobs without running short.
New to tear-off tarps? Our guide on how to use a tear-off tarp for roof replacement walks through sizing, anchoring, and setting the debris slide path step by step.
The Best Shingle Tear-Off Tarp Available
We got our start producing conestoga wagon covers and horse blankets. Times and products have changed, but our attitude hasn't. The same commitment to quality that kept us in business as the Philadelphia textile industry moved overseas still guides us today. That means you can expect a superior roof tear-off tarp from us. We want you coming back to us for all your textile needs.
