green roofs
Green roofing systems are becoming ever more popular as the construction industry works to become more environmentally friendly. Our flat roofing systems be it single ply, hot melt or felt create the perfect surface for the overlaying of a green roof, and our extensive network of quality suppliers and installers means that no project is out of our reach.
It is critical that before any green roof is installed that you are 100% confident that the waterproofing system the green roof is being laid onto has zero defects. That’s why on every green roof project our robust quality processes ensure that we fully test the waterproofing system before any green roof material is overlaid. This then guarantees that there will be no water ingress which would be difficult to locate once the green roof is down.
Green Roofs are also known as living roofs and involve the cultivation of vegetation on top of your building structure. This innovative approach to roofing provides a host of benefits for both the environment and your property. As experts in eco-friendly construction, we excel in seamlessly integrating Green Roofs into new build projects.
Ideal for modern urban developments, Green Roofs offer a natural solution to issues such as stormwater management and energy efficiency. The vegetation acts as a protective layer, reducing water runoff, improving insulation, and mitigating the urban heat island effect. Our expert team ensures that each Green Roof is meticulously designed to complement your architectural vision while meeting sustainability goals.
Beyond their environmental advantages, Green Roofs contribute to biodiversity, creating a habitat for birds, insects, and other wildlife. They also improve air quality by filtering pollutants and carbon dioxide.
Rock Roofing’s experienced team can help you select a compatible waterproofing system to be installed underneath your green roof. Once you are happy with both the green roof and the waterproofing system proposed, we then take the reins and coordinate between the two components helping to ensure a defect free installation. Suppliers of living roof systems that we partner with are Urbanscape and Sky Garden.
