Types Of Green Roofs
Living roofs are becoming a staple of any green-conscious building. These ecofriendly additions come in many forms and have begun to pop up everywhere, from residential homes to high-end commercial buildings. Green rooftops refer to roofs that have vegetation growing on them – but there’s more than one kind! There are extensive and intensive types of green roofs.
Extensive Roofs
Extensive is lighter, thinner and can look more like a traditional roof. This can help soak up all the heavy rains, keeping them from absorbing into the building and speeding up the decline of the materials. It also helps keep water from running off, which can wear down the surrounding area over time.
Intensive Roofs
Intensive green roofs, also known as roof gardens, can be accessible to guests and residents and house larger plants and even water features. Intensive green roofs can not only help preserve the building but can also add an air of elegance and relaxation.
