Benefits of a green roof...

Reduces energy consumption
One of the biggest problems facing a typical roof is poor insulation, leading to substantial heat loss in winter and sweltering conditions in hotter months. This all changes with the aid of a green roof. Plants both absorb and reflect sunlight and provide an extra layer of insulation - reducing your home energy consumption.
Roof efficiency
A green roof absorbs heat and protects the roofing material from the sun, rain and wind. It can increase the lifespan of your roof up to three times.
Your home is worth more
A green roof protects the roofing material from external influences such as the sun, rain & wind and can increase the lifespan of your roof up to three times. Your green roof could also reduce your overall household energy consumption and could increase the value of your property.
Wildlife habitat
The Sedums, herbs, grasses or host plants promote the healthy habitat for bees, birds, butterflies and insects.
Rainwater Management
Green Roofs provide a rainwater stores as the plants, substrate and drainage layer absorb water and purifies it.
Acts as a fire-retardant layer
Plants naturally retain moisture and your sedum roof a creates a naturally fire-retardant layer.
Provides Clean Air
Green roof plants provide natural air purification by filtering particulate matter from the air and converting the CO2 into oxygen.
Less noise
A green roof absorbs sound, creating a quieter environment, both inside and outside your home.
Solar panels
When solar panels become too hot, they lose efficiency. When used in combination with a green roof, the temperature around the panels particularly in Summer, is cooler which in turn increases the efficiency of the panels.
Well-being
Living in a green, more environmentally friendly home creates a positive effect on your well-being.
