Green Roof Waterproofing

A green roof is like any other roof in that it has to be completely waterproof. Unlike other roofs it has a garden on it, so accessing the roof waterproofing to carry out repairs is almost impossible. For this reason the roof waterproofing system has to be totally dependable.

With green roofs becoming more popular due to their environmental impact, the range of green roof waterproofing systems has to change as different waterproofing systems may be required for a sedum roof compared to a meadow roof, and depending on the make up of the roof.

The advantages of the Polyprufe system are:

• Can be applied above or below the roof insulation
• Acts as a root barrier, preventing the vegetation on the green roof damaging the structure
• Fully bonded to the roof material
• Seamless, 'rubber' roof coating with no joints to fail
• Quick to cure
• High elasticity to allow for seasonal movement in the roof or deck
