InventHelp Inventor Develops Tarpaulin for Covering a Leaking Rooftop (HOF-796)

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- "I wanted to provide homeowners and businesses with an improved means of temporarily covering storm-related damage on rooftops," said an inventor, from Houston, Texas, "so I invented the STORM TARP. My design allows for quick deployment with limited tools and no need for nails or screws."

The patent-pending invention provides reliable temporary coverage over storm-related rooftop damage. In doing so, it minimizes or eliminates the need for nails, screws, or other makeshift weights to hold a tarp stationary atop a roof. As a result, it increases convenience during installation, and it provides added protection and stability. The invention features a protective and weatherproof design that is easy to apply and use for multiple applications, so it is ideal for homeowners and business owners who sometimes experience rooftop leaks. Additionally, it can be used by homeowners who regularly cover plants to prevent freezing.

The original design was submitted to the Houston sales office of InventHelp. It is currently available for licensing or sale to manufacturers or marketers.
