Vegetative (Green) Roofing Services

Garden Roof Repair & Replacement

Vegetative roofing systems, also known as green roofs, incorporate live plants and landscaping elements on top of waterproofing and drainage layers. These systems not only create an eco-friendly, visually appealing environment but also deliver numerous practical benefits—such as reducing urban heat, improving insulation, managing stormwater runoff, and enhancing air quality. Whether it’s an extensive (low-maintenance) or intensive (lush and garden-like) green roof, we specialize in designing and installing vegetative systems that balance sustainability with structural integrity and performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of plants are used in a vegetative roof?

Vegetative roofs typically use drought-tolerant, low-maintenance plants such as sedums, grasses, and wildflowers, depending on the roof’s exposure and structural support.

Can any building support a green roof?

Not all buildings can support the weight of a green roof. A structural assessment is required to ensure the building can handle the added load of soil, plants, and retained water.

Is maintenance required for a green roof?

Yes—though extensive green roofs require minimal upkeep, all vegetative roofs benefit from periodic inspections, irrigation checks, and weeding to stay healthy and functional.
