Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between extensive and intensive green roofs?
Extensive green roofs use lightweight growing medium (2-6 inches) with low-maintenance plants like sedums, requiring minimal irrigation and structural support. Intensive green roofs are deeper (6+ inches), support diverse plants including trees and shrubs, but need more maintenance and stronger roof structures. Most residential applications use extensive systems.
Can my existing roof support a green roof installation?
Most flat or low-slope roofs can be retrofitted for green roofs with proper structural assessment. Extensive systems add 15-30 pounds per square foot when saturated, while intensive systems can add 80-150+ pounds. We conduct thorough structural evaluations before recommending the appropriate system for your building.
How much does a green roof cost compared to traditional roofing?
Green roof installations typically cost $15-30 per square foot for extensive systems and $25-50+ for intensive systems, compared to $5-12 for traditional roofing. However, green roofs last 40-50 years (double conventional roofs), reduce energy costs 20-30%, and may qualify for tax incentives and stormwater fee reductions.
What maintenance does a green roof require in Dallas?
Extensive green roofs need 2-4 maintenance visits per year for weed removal, fertilization, and irrigation system checks. Dallas summers require supplemental irrigation during drought periods. Intensive roofs need more regular care similar to traditional landscaping. We offer maintenance programs tailored to Dallas climate conditions.
Do green roofs work well in the hot Dallas climate?
Yes, green roofs provide significant benefits in hot climates. The vegetation and growing medium provide natural insulation, reducing roof surface temperatures by up to 70°F compared to conventional roofs. This reduces cooling costs and extends the underlying membrane's lifespan. We select drought-tolerant, heat-resistant plant species suited to North Texas.
