A Message from Steve Clisset,
Inventor of Windstrips®

I have been in the roofing industry for over 30 years. When I became an independent contractor attempting to compete with larger companies, I needed creative solutions to advance my business. In order to take on more jobs while maintaining construction schedules, I decided to provide dry-ins as part of my service - this gave me the option to shingle when I was ready.

Over the years, I have used all kinds of dry-in products. Plastic washered nails, wood lath, cardboard dry-wall shims - all with their share of challenges including: ineffectiveness in windy conditions; expense; the need to remove pre-shingling; extensive installation time; and the sheer difficulty in handling and transporting the product on the roof.

One day while struggling with a bundle of shims, it occurred to me that the job would be so much simpler if the shims were in a roll. With a little ingenuity and research, this concept became Windstrips® - a product that has far exceeded expectations of efficiency, cost-effectiveness and ease of use.

Windstrips® have repeatedly remained intact in windy conditions and have withstood clocked winds of 125 mph. The product installs quickly and easily with just a staple hammer or a rapid-fire pneumatic staple gun. It is lightweight and easy to transport on the roof. Plus, one of the greatest advantages is the low cost - Windstrips® are less expensive than most dry-in products, if installed correctly, will save you repeat dry-in due to wind, and because of the efficient install, will allow you to cover more roofs in less time.

This industry doesn't often see innovative ideas that make the roofers task easier, but Windstrips® does. After 30 years in the business, I have used many products, and Windstrips® are the best for dry-in protection. It even comes with a warranty.

Don't just take my word for it, try the product, and join the growing list of satisfied contractors using Windstrips® (see what others are saying on our testimonial pages). Once you've used it, you'll never go back!
