Green Roofing
Grow Plants Up High
Green roofs, also referred to as roof gardens or living roofs, have seen a surge of interest in recent years, gaining acceptance for their environmental value. They’re known for their ability to:
- Save energy
- Minimize garden runoff
- Provide outdoor sound deadening
- Improve air quality and the environment
- Provide additional natural living space
A green roof system can be placed on new construction or added as an extension to an existing roof structure. It’s like adding an extra floor to your property but at a fraction of the normal cost.
It may vary in style, vegetation, weight capacity and type of drainage. However, in order to maintain the structural integrity of the roof, all green roofs need quality waterproofing, a drainage system and root repellent.
Correct Installation and Maintenance
To be safe, functional and sustainable, green roofing systems must be installed correctly. You’ll want to choose a roofing contractor with experience in the industry.
Done right, your eco-friendly, green roof should be easy to maintain and resistant to punctures and tears. It should stay clean and weather well, repelling mold, mildew and algae growth. With proper installation, you can expect your green roof to last 10-20 years or longer.
