Green roofs are a pivotal climate technology. Part of the effort to keep cities liveable and help nature recover. But also increasingly exposed to its ravages. Now, more than ever, its important that green roof specifications embody good design that’s well implemented.
After spending 2010 training in Switzerland where green roofs are mandatory, our founder, Lee Evans returned to the UK and launched Organic Roofs with the intention of bringing European quality to the UK market. We have since expanded our stable to include www.greenroofrevival.com which undertakes green roof maintenance for our installations, and provides consulting services including leak detection & repair, and diagnosing & restoring vegetation loss.
We work with forward-thinking ecologists, property owners, developers and designers to create robust green roofs that endure year after year and have an excellent reputation for embracing and helping to deliver architecturally-challenging and ecologically thoughtful designs. We like to work with good people, and our network of friends and collaborators include award-winning designers, ecologists and thought leaders. We’ve also won some awards ourself.
Our principles: green roofs and nature recovery
Extended weather patterns caused by climate change are making efforts to grow nature-rich spaces in thin substrates more vital but at the same time increasingly challenging. By taking this step you’re making a meaningful contribution to making cities more livable and better able to withstand extremes of heat and rain.
