What is Green Roofing?

Green roofing refers to the process of installing vegetation and living plants on the rooftops of properties. This has become very popular across the New York area. Green roofs are being installed on the roofs of residential, commercial, and even industrial buildings. Even though this sounds like a new concept, in many European countries it has been prevalent for many years.

Benefits

Benefits of Green Roofing

Green roofing provides many benefits to the residents and owners of that property. Below are a few of those benefits.

Extends Roof’s Lifespan

As per various studies, if you install a green roof on your property, it generally increases its lifespan by 200%. This alone is a very big reason to opt for green roofs. Since there will be no need for regular repairs, you can end up saving a lot of your hard-earned money.

Increases Property Value

If you have a green roof installed on your home or office, then statistically you have a chance at getting a higher price for your property. For those who are looking to flip a property for a nice profit, green roofing is a smart idea.

Waterproofing Benefit

Green roofs in NYC can act as a natural way to waterproof your roof. The vegetation absorbs any excess water that may collect on the roof, especially due to rains. It will prevent the roof from getting any sort of water damage.

One-Year Tax Credit

In New York City, there is a one-time tax credit of one year given to property owners who make at least 50% of their roof green. This is a major step by the government to promote green roofs, which are more sustainable and proven to be better for the environment.

Green Roofs Reduce Energy Costs

Green roofs keep your property naturally cool by absorbing most of the heat caused by sunlight. This leads to a reduction in the usage of air conditioners to keep the property cool. Hence, there is a noticeable decrease in energy usage and cost.

Increase Agriculture Space

Many people use their green rooftops as spaces to grow vegetables and fruits. They create a type of terrace garden on their rooftops. This leads to an increase in urban agriculture.
