Burleson Roof Pros provides professional emergency tarping in Burleson, TX for residential and commercial properties across the I-35W corridor south of Fort Worth. Tarping a steep roof and tarping a shallow one are different jobs, and the difference decides whether the tarp works at all. On a 6:12 plane a tarp sheds. On a 3:12 porch the same tarp holds a pond, and a pond finds the fastener holes you just made.
The field method is anchor high, run long, batten the edges. The head of the tarp goes over the ridge or is secured well above the opening so no edge faces uphill into the water. Battens are furring strips screwed through the tarp into the deck, not nails through grommets, because grommets are the first thing to tear in a gust and a flapping tarp does more damage than the hole it covered.
On the shallow half we do not simply tarp. We build fall to the eave with strips or we dry-in with a self-adhered membrane directly, because a flat tarp on a flat roof is a swimming pool with a fifteen year old asphalt bottom. If the porch has to be covered temporarily, it gets slope built into the covering. Building slope into the covering is the whole trick on that half.
Where the fasteners go matters more than people think. Every screw is a hole in a roof that may not be replaced for years, so battens land on the field where a future course covers them, never in a valley, never through flashing, and every penetration is logged so it can be sealed properly at the permanent repair. That log goes into the file alongside the photographs.
Timing is honest here: a tarp is a fourteen to thirty day product in this climate. Ultraviolet degrades polyethylene fast in a Johnson County summer, and a blue tarp that has been up since spring is no longer waterproof. If your permanent repair is going to take longer than a month, the right answer is a dry-in with synthetic underlayment or peel-and-stick over the affected planes, which costs more and lasts a season.
We do not require anything be signed to get a tarp on a house. Emergency work and a contract for the repair are separate decisions and anyone bundling them at midnight is not helping you. Call us, get it dry, and decide the rest in daylight. Getting the house dry is the only decision that matters that night.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — 6:12 minimum dwelling pitch, 3:12 front porch allowance, doubled underlayment below four in twelve, porch-to-field transition flashing, pitch-multiplier labor takeoff, roof jack and plank staging — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Burleson and nearby communities including Cleburne, Joshua, Crowley, Benbrook.

Materials, equipment and how we do emergency tarping
The difference between emergency tarping that lasts and emergency tarping that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with 6:12 minimum dwelling pitch, 3:12 front porch allowance, doubled underlayment below four in twelve, porch-to-field transition flashing, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Burleson job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in the I-35W corridor south of Fort Worth means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Burleson Chooses Burleson Roof Pros
- ✓Every proposal carries a pitch schedule. Each plane is listed with its slope, its squares and the underlayment specified for that slope, so a shallow porch cannot be buried inside one roof price.
- ✓We treat the porch and patio cover as a service in their own right rather than an afterthought, because in this city that shallow surface causes most of the interior damage while the steep field takes the blame.
- ✓Our reports state which planes were reached on foot and which were assessed from a drone or a ladder. Above seven in twelve nobody walks a roof safely without staging, and pretending otherwise is where bad reports begin.
- ✓We refuse work we think is wrong. Coatings do not go on asphalt fields, tile does not go on tract framing built for shingle load, and a roof with years left does not get replaced because a storm passed overhead.
The standards behind emergency tarping
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The emergency tarping work we do in Burleson follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
Every emergency tarping project in Burleson gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
