Garden Roofing is becoming a very popular choice for multifamily units and some hotels. This process incorporates the installation of a roof membrane, then the installation of either intensive or extensive planting of medium or plants. Garden Roofing helps with the Urban Island heat and helps control water run-off.

Intensive - roofs incorporating planting media up to several feet in depth requiring extensive maintenance by plan and design. These roofs are intended for public access and use; usually built-in-place

Extensive - have planting media eight inches or less in depth with few maintenance requirements and are not intended for public access; usually composed of recycled plastic modular planting units
