The benefits to your home
Protect Your Roof
It is the UV rays from the sun that breaks down flat roofing membranes that eventually, overtime, leads to leaks and replacement. A green roof will protect the flat roof from the suns harmful UV rays and extreme temperature fluctuations which have become more common in the UK.
Heat Island effect
A green roof will keep the air flowing around your home even on a hot muggy day with no wind. London currently mandates green roofs to combat the heat island effect for this very reason. This helps keep the temperature down slightly, and even a few degrees difference can make a real difference to you.
Extra insulation and noise reduction to your home
A green roof will provide an extra layer of insulation for your home helping keep your home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. It also provides an additional layer of sound proofing which if you live near a busy road is a real benefit.
The benefits to Nature
A green sedum roof is a perfect source of food for pollinator insects providing them with vital food source and habitat. This will help our fragile ecosystems and go some small way to protect our biodiversity.
A green roof also looks beautiful as well.
