Project Description
The Green Roof – Sedum Grass Roof
England Crescent, Heanor, Derbyshire
Description:
Clients required a new green grass roof, which would be looked at from the garden level and from the house windows.
Solution:
Structural engineer drawings set out fro the new roof to be formed upton the existing garage. A new wall on a new foundation was formed. New oak posts to the rear gave a timber storage shed.
The roof was then formed with timber joists, plywood, EPDM. The Sedum grass roof was laid to the roof. A steel trim around the roof seperated a stone detail for decoration. The steel trim perforated edges allowed drainage. All water was connected to water butt containers for re-use.
New rooms created:
