Frequently Asked Questions

What is a green roofing system?

Put simply, a green roof system is a vegetation layer planted on top of a waterproofed roof system. These are used across the world and are a great way to encourage biodiverse life in your home.

Why use a green roof?

The benefits of a green roof are almost endless, ranging from extending the life of your roof and retaining rainwater to reducing CO2 levels, purifying the air around you, lowering noise pollution, and fostering natural wildlife habitats throughout your home.

What is the difference between intensive and extensive substrates?

Extensive green roof substrates are used on green roof systems with a depth of less than 200mm. This is typically used for sedum mats and wildflowers.

On the other hand, intensive green roof substrates are deeper and used for roof gardens (depth greater than 200mm). These are suitable for shrubs and trees.
