US Patent 11773611 Protective roof tarp and associated methods

A protective roof tarp includes deformably pliable adhesive tape(s) configured to maintain continuous adhesion (e.g. surface area contact) to both barrel-shaped roof tile as well as planar-shaped roof tile having granules attached to a top surface thereof such that adhesive material penetrates past the granules and engages a roof tile substrate therebeneath for effectively prohibiting water from flowing beneath the protective tarp, and onto the roof file, during extended periods of time and in inclement weather conditions. A protective roof tarp kit can include a heat-shrinkable tarp, double-sided adhesive tape, single-sided adhesive tape, and a cutting implement.
