Vehicle protection

CoverSeal Aims to Protect Work Trucks from Wind, Wildfires and… Rats

CoverSeal offers roofing professionals a re-engineered vehicle cover for crews who store trucks outdoors.

April 30, 2026

If your roofing company stores work trucks or vans outdoors, you are familiar with the risks: anything from strong winds or ashes from wildfire nearby but also a more common threat: mice or rats.

Those challenges led to the development of CoverSeal, a re-engineered vehicle cover that promises to give roofing professionals peace of mind when leaving their trucks outside. 

The cover uses higher performance technical fabrics and a 360-degree weighted bottom that helps prevent it from blowing off in strong winds while keeping rodents out.

“The last thing anyone needs when getting ready to leave for a job in the morning is to discover their truck or van won’t start because a mouse or rat chewed wiring”, is the scenario that CoverSeal promises that professionals won’t have to deal with. 

Technological features

  • 360-Degree Weighted Bottom. Instead of using straps, bungees, or tie-downs, CoverSeal uses a continuous tube filled with sand around the entire bottom edge of the cover. This design helps keep the cover in place in winds up to 40 mph.
  • Ground-level seal. It creates a barrier that blocks rodents, snakes, spiders and other pests.
  • Durable fabric construction. Made from 420D polyester with ripstop and a water-repellent coating that resists tearing and repels water. It is also intentionally not fully airtight to prevent water and moisture from pooling.
  • Heat and fire-resistant protection. CoverSeal was lab tested to withstand ash up to 300F and will not ignite.
  • UV protection. Reflects up to 90% of sunlight helping protects paint, windows, tires, and interior components.
  • Designed for one-person deployment.
  • CoverSeal vehicle covers are available in a variety of sizes to fit passenger cars to long bed pickup trucks.
  • Car covers weigh between 32-45 pounds and truck covers weigh between 48-60 pounds, depending on size.
