WHY IS SHRINK-WRAP BETTER?
Mother nature is not forgiving. Storms can come and go with little warning, and the damage can be unpredictable. StormWrappers acts in three steps: assessment, stabilization, shrink-wrapping. While outdated methods of property damage protection have called for blue tarps, shrink-wrap is a more effective option for six main reasons:
LEAKPROOF
Shrink-wrap has the ability to form around structures and items
tightly, creating a drum-tight seal that can prevent water from
entering. This tight seal helps protect items against wind, rain,
hail and other elements of severe weather. Blue tarps are made
with looser weaving techniques which causes gaps between
fibers allowing for potential leakage of water or debris through
the fabric itself.
WIND RESISTANT
StormWrap shrink-wrap is thicker and stronger than the plastic used in tarps, 10-12 mil shrink-wrap vs. 4-6 mil blue tarps which makes it less likely to be torn apart or blown away by strong winds. This reduces the amount of pressure put on that structure from powerful gusts of wind.
AESTHETICALLY APPEALING
Shrink-wrap is more aesthetically appealing on the roofs and walls of buildings than blue tarp. This is largely because of its sleek, modern look. Shrink-wrap can be installed quickly and easily with minimal disruption to a building’s aesthetics or environment. It allows for an uninterrupted line of sight that doesn’t distract from other architectural features like windows or doors. It also doesn’t ruin the building’s aesthetic.
SECONDARY DAMAGE
After the StormWrappers’ team assesses and stabilizes the building’s damages, Stormwrappers will begin drying in the structure: the number one goal is to protect against water damage, but blue tarps often allow moisture in, even if taped over. When blue tarps don’t work correctly (which is often the case) they don’t just fail to do their job, they typically lead to additional damage.
EFFECTIVENESS
Why are blue tarps less effective? Well, they are made from polyethylene, which is not as strong or durable. When exposed to rain, wind and sun, the tarp can quickly become brittle and break apart. Blue tarps also don’t adhere to the heating process that shrink-wrap does, making blue tarps much looser and less customizable to different structures. The easy tearing, poor reaction to harsh environments, and lack of customizability, makes blue tarps an inefficient option for protecting your property. Additionally, the installation of blue tarps can prove dangerous or even fatal when performed by untrained teams, let alone the sky-high potential liability for the building owner.
INSURER APPROVED AND WARRANTY
Aside from the physical benefits of shrink-wrap, it is also insurer-approved and comes with a six-month warranty. All of these factors make shrink-wrapping the most effective option for protection against disaster damages.
