Green Roofs

An investment in green roofs is an investment in our future. Green roofs offer many advantages over traditional roofing applications. A primary benefit that green roofs provide is a drastic reduction in storm water runoff over traditional roofing surfaces. In addition, green roofs reflect heat rather than absorbing it and can reduce the ambient temperature of a building, as well as cooling costs. Green roofs also contribute to bio-diversity by providing space for animals, insects and birds that typically do not find green space in city environments.
 
Greenscape has installed hundreds of thousands of square feet of the region’s largest, most complex and award winning green roofs, including Boston’s first platinum LEED-certified building. We specialize in new construction and retrofit and can advise you on the best solution for your needs. We offer intensive, semi-intensive and extensive green roofs, each offering distinct advantages and environmental benefits, and designed according to your aesthetic and functional needs.

 
Very few green roofs are alike. Because Greenscape has installed many different types of green roofs and unique applications, we bring vast experience to the table as you work through the decision making process.  We offer advice on the best materials and products to help you achieve your design and budgetary goals. We are authorized to work with project-specified manufacturers or we can create a custom system. Most importantly we can provide warrantees that are comparable to any in the industry.
 
As a leading green roof installer, Greenscape’s commitment to this exciting technology and years of experience will help guide you through the planning and design process. Our expertise, commitment to safety and specialized equipment—including our exclusive Pneumatic soil blowing equipment—ensure the success of your next green roof project.
