Expert Verdict Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk

Protective matting is cheap insurance on any single-ply job: lay it over finished membrane wherever ladders, material carts or trades will work to prevent punctures that void the roof’s integrity. Roll it out over the 15-foot width on wide decks to minimize seams and tape or weight the laps so wind does not peel it back. Remove the mat before final inspection if a clean membrane surface is required.

Secure the matting against wind uplift before walking on it and use fall protection near roof edges, as loose matting can create a slip hazard.

Order the Mule-Hide HP Protective Mat in a 15-foot by 300-foot roll to protect your membrane during construction.
