DIAGNOSTIC INSPECTION
For a leaking green roof we kick things off with a brief triage call to understand the type of roof, urgency of the problem and what constraints there may be eg on access, safe work and so on. This is followed by our Diagnostic Inspection service, which includes
- a visit during which we’ll ascertain as best we can what the likely cause or causes are and – if we can do so within the hour or so the visit includes – attempt to resolve.
- if a more substantial investigation is required, or if the fix is not a quick one, a jargon free report that you can use to obtain third party costs, including from local non-specialists where appropriate
- costs for repairs supplied separately
ESTIMATING & PLANNING
If the roof needs a substantial intervention including lifting and relaying green roof elements, we will do our utmost to reuse anything that can be from your current build up. Its not always possible, but we are committed to generating as little waste and new resource demand as possible.
POST INSTALL
We will always install to what we think is the optimal build up for your budget and the roofs load limit. To ensure your new roof thrives, we’ll send a handover pack explaining what we’ve done and introducing you to some of the nature to look out for. We’ll also send details of a robust but sensible maintenance plan in line with good green roof principles. We can undertake this for you, or explain what to do yourself is this is preferable.
