How The LiveRoof Module Works

The LiveRoof system creates a seamless, beautiful, and instantly mature green roof. The modules disappear under the cover of soil and plants which means no ugly container edges or grid lines.

Step 1: Neighborhood Roofing installs EPDM (waterproofing membrane) to protect the roof along with LiveRoof RoofEdge, a green roof aluminum edger that the plant modules will be placed in.

Step 2: Plants are delivered to the roof. These plants are locally grown to maturity in engineered soil that extends above the module.

Step 3: Neighborhood Roofing sets the modules tightly in place, surrounded by the RoofEdge.

Step 4: Throughout the installation process, Soil Elevators are removed for a seamless, instantly mature green roof.

Step 5: The entire system is watered thoroughly to settle any loose soil and get the LiveRoof system off to a great start.
