What is a green roof and is your roof suitable?

A green roof is a layered system covered with vegetation. Before installation, specialists assess whether your roof is suitable based on various factors.

Roof load capacity

A fully saturated green roof typically weighs around 75–80 kg per m². The structure must be able to support this load safely.

Type of roof

Green roofs are most commonly installed on flat roofs, but can also be applied to slightly sloped roofs (up to approximately 35 degrees).

Drainage and water management

In a water-rich region like Joure, where rainfall levels can be significant, proper drainage is essential to prevent water buildup and long-term damage.

Condition of the roof covering

Existing materials such as bitumen or EPDM are checked to ensure they are still in good condition and resistant to root penetration.
