R&W Hughes Complete Green Roof Project
Posted on 9th October 2024
In an exciting development for sustainable construction, R&W Hughes Roofing Services has recently completed an impressive eco-efficient green roof project in Penarth using roofing materials sourced from Roofbase Cardiff.
Environmental Impact
The newly installed green roof system offers a range of environmental advantages:
Improves the local microclimate
Creates new habitats for flora and fauna
Enhances biodiversity in the area
Contributes to better air quality
Property Benefits
Beyond its ecological merits, the green roof also provides tangible benefits to the property itself:
Improves thermal protection, potentially reducing energy costs
Enhances the aesthetic appeal of the building
Project Details
The installation process involved several key steps to ensure the roof's effectiveness and longevity:
1. Application of an anthracite fleece-back fully adhered single ply system as the base layer
2. Installation of the green roof system on top of the base layer
3. Special attention to skylights, box gutters, and abutment walls, which were completed with an anthracite reinforced single ply membrane for added durability

R&W Hughes Roofing Services demonstrated their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction with this project, and the client was delighted with the finished product.
