Abstract: A vent for use in a membrane covering a roof comprises a tubular element having an inner volume, a first end and a second end, a piercing structure located at the first end of the tubular element, a first opening located at a bottom of the tubular element that provides access to the inner volume, a second opening located at the second end of the tubular element that provides access to the inner volume, and a clip located at a top of the tubular element.

Abstract: A system and method for temporary protection of a damaged roof is provided. The system and method for covering at least a portion of a roof with an impermeable membrane comprises a method that includes placing a strip of the impermeable membrane over the portion of the roof intended to be covered, cutting a length of the strip to accommodate a size of the portion of the roof intended to be covered, draping an end of the strip over a fascia of eaves of the roof, placing elongated construction material on the end of the strip contacting fascia of eaves of the roof, attaching the elongated construction material to the fascia of eaves of the roof using a plurality of fasteners, and repeating the steps above until the portion of the roof is covered in the impermeable membrane.

Abstract: A system and method for covering at least a portion of a roof with an impermeable membrane is provided. The method includes placing a strip of the impermeable membrane over a subset of the portion of the roof intended to be covered, cutting a length of the strip to accommodate a size of the portion of the roof intended to be covered, fastening a flexible, elongated band of material to the end of the strip using a plurality of first fasteners, rolling the band of material at least one half turn in the end of the strip, attaching the band of material that was rolled in the end of the strip to a fascia of eaves of the roof using a plurality of second fasteners, and repeating the steps above until the portion of the roof is covered in the impermeable membrane.

Abstract: A system and method for temporary protection of a damaged roof is provided. The method includes draping a strip of the impermeable membrane over the roof, wherein the end of the strip overhangs a fascia of eaves of the roof, placing a piece of construction material in a horizontal position under the end of the strip, cutting the end of the strip as follows: a horizontal cut and two vertical cuts of the construction material, such that a resulting shape of the end of the strip is substantially commensurate with the construction material, fastening the construction material to the end of the strip, rolling the construction material at least one full turn in the end of the strip, attaching the construction material to the fascia of the eaves of the roof, and repeating the steps above until the entire roof is covered in the impermeable membrane.

Abstract: A system and method for temporary protection of a damaged roof is provided. The method includes draping a strip of an impermeable membrane over the roof, wherein the end of the strip overhangs the eaves of the roof, placing a rigid, elongated piece of construction material under the end of the strip that overhangs the eaves of the roof, such that the construction material is placed below the eaves of the roof, cutting the end of the strip such that it is coextensive with a length of the construction material and cutting the end of the strip below the construction material, fastening the construction material to the end of the strip, rolling the construction material at least one full turn in the end of the strip, attaching the construction material to the eaves of the roof, and repeating the steps above until the roof is covered in the impermeable membrane.
