GREEN ROOFS
The green roof can be constructed in many different ways depending on the specification required. We can offer either a green sedum roof, or an extensive planted roof.
For smaller roof areas we recommend that a tray system is used. This provides a very uniform square area and you can include decorative gravel to provide a border.
The planting can be changed, simply by removing a tray, changing the plants and re inserting it - it's so easy to change the look and feel of the roof and anyone can maintain it.
The sedum roof will require more regular maintenance and feeding to ensure that it grows.
If you're thinking about having a Green Roof here's a couple of Top Tips:
-
Use plants that are local to your area for your climate
-
Choose plants that are not too susceptible to the good old garden bugs!
