Green roofs are appearing everywhere. That's because more and more companies are seeing the financial benefits a green roof can bring and the positive image it projects. From tax benefits, lower energy costs and additional LEED points, to doubling the lifespan of the roof, green roofs are good for business.
TectaGreen, a specialized service line of Tecta Environmental Solutions, is the total green roof solution. As the nation's leading green roof contractor, we've installed and maintained more green roofs than anyone else. From start to finish—and beyond—our roof experts will ensure that your green roof is the healthiest it can be.
A TectaGreen roof system will:
- Reduce storm water runoff —retains 60-90% of storm water and allows it to evaporate rather than drain into a retention pond, which could result in financial incentives on some sites.
- Reduce smog —40-60% less CO2 and airborne particulates which contribute to smog.
- Reduce Urban Heat Island effect —a green roof surface absorbs solar radiation and provides natural evaporative cooling. In urban environments where building density is high, green roofs mimic a natural landscape otherwise unavailable at ground level.
