Green Roof Installation: What is it and why do we do it?
This type of roof installation is practised by R&D Roofing because it is an innovative style of flat roofing which is pleasing to the eye, and economically efficient.
This is where the roof deck has intentionally grown vegetation or where habitats for wildlife are established. Due to the changing attitudes of the consumer and the increasing awareness of sustainable development to combat climate change, the demand for this has soared over the past ten years.
Further, our green roof installation aims to combat progressive urbanisation and there is extensive amounts of roof space in the UK where this type of roof installation could be implemented with little to no modification to the roof structure.
