An extensive green roof or sedum roof is a roof with vegetation that is more or less self perpetuating and that can further develop and maintain itself. An extensive green roof is almost maintenance free but your roof garden will always need a little maintenance. All plant varieties are available to the green roof maintenance company for use within our care and maintenance programmes. The before and after shows what a little feed and plug plant can do to bring a roof round to full health.

The beauty of a sedum roof is that it is relatively low maintenance. We recommend maintenance should be carried out at least once a year for sedum roofs twice for wildflower roofs. The plants will not be damaged by walking on them when conducting this maintenance. There are a few simple things that will help your green roof.

We deal with all varieties of extensive green roofs including sedum and more biodiverse roofs that use wildflower varieties. That said there are some tasks that are absolutely essential.

Sedum roofs should be fed every. Maintenance promotes healthy growth biodiversity and reduces the chance of weeds establishing.
