Blackdown Green Roofs

The term “green roof” has many pseudonyms - living roof, brown roof, biodiverse roof, Sedum roof, eco-roof, grass roof, turfed roof, vegetated roof etc. Green roofs, typically designed to allow vegetative growth, can include both hard and soft roof landscaping solutions. Blackdown green roofs are constructed from a range of components that replicate the natural growing environment for plants, without requiring the same depth and weight of construction. Blackdown Horticultural Consultants was established in 1999 at our nurseries in the Blackdown Hills - designated an area of outstanding natural beauty - in Somerset. Design We advise in the selection of the most appropriate green roof. With a wide range of plant-related skills and experience, Blackdown advises on an array of roof planting issues, devising project-specific specifications and providing supporting technical information, such as CAD details and data sheets.

The Blackdown supply package includes all of the components necessary for a high quality green roof system, and is backed by interim (subject to size) and final inspections by our in-house green roof experts.
