Revere Roof Pros provides professional emergency tarping in Revere, MA for residential and commercial properties across Boston's inner North Shore. On a rental building in Massachusetts an open roof is not an inconvenience, it is a habitability problem. The state sanitary code requires dwellings to be kept protected from wind, rain and snow and watertight, so water through a tenant's ceiling is a complaint that reaches the board of health.
That is why we treat tarping calls on multi-family buildings as a different priority from a call about a vacant garage. Getting a building dry the same day protects the people living in it, protects the interior finishes from a fortnight of absorption, and protects the owner from an enforcement file that will still be open long after the roof itself has been fixed and paid for.
The work itself has to be more than a sheet and a few bricks. We fasten to structure with battens run through the tarp, lap upslope over downslope, carry the covering over the ridge or right over the parapet instead of stopping short of it, and terminate at a real edge. A tarp held down by weight alone moves in the first onshore blow and takes shingles with it on the way. Weight is not a fastening method.
On low-slope decks tarping is harder and matters more, because there is no slope to help you and water simply sits wherever it lands. There we will often use a self-adhered patch membrane over the actual failure rather than covering the whole field, which is faster to install, drier underneath, and far more likely to stay where it was put.
Nothing gets covered until it is recorded. The failure, the interior damage and the temporary work are all photographed into a file that same day, because once a tarp is down nobody can see what was underneath it, and that file is precisely what an adjuster or a tenant's inspector will ask you for later. Nobody remembers a roof accurately a month afterward, ourselves included.
We charge a fair call-out and nothing beyond it. Emergency work at nine at night on a February roof is not the moment to start negotiating a replacement, and we will not quote one on the same visit. Dry first, decisions afterward, in daylight, with the photographs on the table. You will have a real quote in your hand by the morning.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — an unrestricted CSL number entered on a three-unit permit application, a granulated SBS cap sheet bedded in cold adhesive, tapered EPS crickets built behind a rear chimney stack, a shingle-to-membrane transition worked into the mansard eave line, a party-wall parapet capped in 20-ounce lead-coated copper, two-piece surface counterflashing screwed to a brick firewall — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Revere and nearby communities including Chelsea, Winthrop, Everett, Malden.

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 an unrestricted CSL number entered on a three-unit permit application, a granulated SBS cap sheet bedded in cold adhesive, tapered EPS crickets built behind a rear chimney stack, a shingle-to-membrane transition worked into the mansard eave line, 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 Revere 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 Boston's inner North Shore means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Revere Chooses Revere Roof Pros
- ✓We establish the dwelling unit count before quoting, because it decides the code path, the license class and the paperwork, and most bids in this city never mention it at all.
- ✓Our estimates carry the Construction Supervisor License number and its restriction class, so you can check that the person signing your permit is actually allowed to sign it.
- ✓We write scopes with quantities and fastener patterns so you can take our document to two other roofers and receive numbers that describe the same roof.
- ✓Inspection fees are billed and stay billed, never netted off a later job, because that is the only way to be certain the report you receive is an opinion and not a pitch.
The standards behind emergency tarping
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The emergency tarping work we do in Revere 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 Revere 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.
