So far this tarp has a proved to be effective. There was no way to secure it so the taped edges worked brilliantly.

Product met my expectations. I placed two separate orders one arrived within 24 hours, the other before 48 hours. Your major competitor could not guarantee shipment under two weeks! By the way true customer service is practiced in your store. ***** (5) Stars

We did not install it on the roof until today. We received it in a good, timely manner, but it was not an emergency to get it up there due to all the sunshine! I will not be able to review how well it works until after we have a rainy time. But it did go on easy and I'm hoping for the best.

Purchased this product for my porch/flat roof, and unfortunately it did not work well. The product itself is made well, and the self adhesive is a great idea; however, the day after I laid the tarp, we did get a big rain, and because of places where the glue did not adhere to the roof, a very large collection of rain was underneath the tarp and pooling on the flat roof. I actually had cut the entire tarp in order to sweep the water off the roof. This is so unfortunate for me. I down loaded the installation instructions, and followed it precisely; some areas just did not stick to a very clean, dry flat roof. Glad it worked for so many others

    Received the product the day following the order. I installed in over a tin roof that has been leaking for many years. It has been in place for about a month with no leaks visible to date. I installed it by myself but would recommend at least two people do the installation. I would warn against trying to pull the edges up once installed. It is a permanent installation once glued at the edge. I would recommend this product to anyone seeking relief from a leaking roof.

    Pull strip 4" wide around tarp for securing. Held on roof flashing, roof shingles and is still secure after rain, snow and winds. Perfect for quick fix needs until roof can be permanently fixed in better weather. Great product!.

    It works for the first storm second storm it had pulled loose from my flat roof and leaked underneath so I had to take some special seam seal to reseal it to the roof still waiting to see if that one worked or not

    I purchased this tarp because we have a pretty big hole in one area of roof on our house and don’t have the money to fix it now. I was skeptical but it has a good layer of glue around the edges and stuck well to our shingles. How it holds up over winter, well that’s yet to be seen.

        Glue did not stick
        This is a great idea but the glue did not stick and came loose. For double the price of a tarp of the same size, this tarp is not worth the cost if the glue doesn't hold. I ended up screwing the tarp down with boards.

            This Product is TERRIBLE!
            The adhesive on this was useless and didn't work AT ALL which was the reason why I bought this and laid extra. I don't understand why the adhesive was so poor I've seeen stronger glue on a child's toy. At the end of the day O have to get nails aaand hammer the tarp into rhe roof which I could habe done a week ago with a cheaper tarp. This has to be one of the worst products I have ever purchased.

              Mostly doing the job
              The finished tarp size is smaller than the package states. Unfortunately the adhesive doesn't seal out water if used on a flat roof with standing water along an edge. This tarp along with a good outdoor adhesive tape has worked so far......

              UTARPit 8 ft. x 10 ft. Blue Roofing Tarp
              Perfect tarp for everyday work... Used it to temporarily cover the lawn mower and tiller that I borrowed from the local recreation center\. This was just what I needed to get the job done and more. Now it is folded up and I will be using it again in the spring when my Mustang comes home to cover it while we strip the engine compartment. Sturdy material that cab take care of the things I am going to cover. The best part is I have a smaller tarp that I use to collect leaves in the fall, this will cut my time in half with a larger. Superior materials sewing is precise and the ability to use as a tempo tent make this a must have for any DIY'r

              Durable
              This is a standard blue tarp that you see anywhere. Wanted this tarp for general use around the house. Recently planted two 75gallon trees. Had to dig nearly 8ft diameter, 2 1/2ft deep holes, Used the tarp to hold the dirt and not cover the lawn. Worked great, After placing the tress in the holes, shoveled the dirt back into the holes, I would take the ends of the tarp, lift up and force the dirt into the middle of tarp. Tarp held up great, After finishing both holes, sprayed washed the dirt off, dried and folded for future use. Very pleased.

              adhesive not very good
              Only difference between this and a tarp is the adhesive and the adhesive is not very good and is only a strip around the edge where the plastic cover can get accidently removed and then it doesn't stick to anything

                Great tarp, Great Value
                You can't go wrong with this tarp. It's super strong, yet amazingly light. The weather was supposed to be clear and warmish (actually too warm for mid December in NY) so i decided to tackle the small cedar roof that was way overdue for replacement. Well it took longer than I expected and yet I almost didn't put a tarp over the half finished roof. Man, glad i did; it rained that night and this tarp saved me a lot of hassle. Kept the interior nice a dry so I could finish up the next morning. I bet this tarp will last for years, too. Highly recommended.
