Why Involve BC Green Roof In Your Project.

When Thinking of a Green Roof consider the following:

- Although many codes and guides are based on and / or refer to the "gold standard" German FLL guidelines for Green Roofs there are no comprehensive and accepted standards for the installation of Green Roofs in Canada.

- Sadly, because there are no universal comprehensive standards, each trade organization such as roofers, landscapers, architects, etc and Green Roof suppliers create their own interpretations of what is acceptable. These interpretations can differ widely, leading to confusion and, in the end, disappointing systems that can add significant cost and risk to owners.

- The Green Roof industry in Canada is much younger than the well established industry in Europe where they have decades more experience and comprehensive codes and guidance. Extensive experience and the right level of knowledge is the key to Green Roofs that work, are not maintenance intensive and will not fail prematurely.

- Our expert, European trained and seasoned consultants have over a decade of Green Roof expertise from Europe (Holland/Germany) where their annual project portfolio surpassed 45,000 m². Our experts know how to properly interpret the praised German FLL guidelines, ensuring best practice and construction to current and modern standards.

A Green Roof is part of a sustainable environment so reduce your concerns about the total carbon footprint when sourcing and shipping plant material! BC Green Roof grows tens of thousands of Green Roof plant material on Vancouver Island, using sustainable methods.
