Green Roof Brief To create amenity space, recreational space and blend in with lawn area
Green Roof Design VersiCell installed over insulation sheet over a “torch on” waterproofing membrane which was affix to a concrete substrate.

Then a layer of bidim geotextile (filter cloth) was loose laid and a light (approx 20mm) layer of washed sand was spread out over the area entire. Approx 100-150mm of soil cover was then screeded out to blend in with the surrounding grass lawn installation.
Size Approx 100 m2
Comments VersiCell offers a very quick and easy installation offering good waterproofing protection while giving excellent drainage this in turn allows for a longer expected life for the roof application.
