The conversion of existing flat roofs to pitched is becoming increasingly recognised as a rapid and cost-effective way of treating flat roof failure. Work can be carried out with minimal disturbance and without disrupting day-to-day operations within the building.
Green roofs have many advantages.
Installing a green roof improves environmental conditions and reduces overall life-cycle costs.
Other benefits include:
improved insulation
efficient reduction in temperature extremes
protection of the roofing membrane from physical damage and harmful UV rays
reduced carbon dioxide and increased oxygen levels
reduced requirement for rainwater ground drainage
