In the second year there will be four visits: a spring cleanup, two mid-summer check-ins and a fall cleanup.<\/p>\n<p>We also offer customizable maintenance services for existing living roof systems.<\/div><\/div><div id=\"ultimate-heading-51876631688356009\" class=\"uvc-heading ult-adjust-bottom-margin ultimate-heading-51876631688356009 uvc-5745 \" data-hspacer=\"line_only\"  data-halign=\"left\" style=\"text-align:left\"><div class=\"uvc-main-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-51876631688356009 h2'  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:30px;mobile_landscape:26px;mobile:26px;\",\"line-height\":\"\"}' ><h2 style=\"font-family:'Raleway';font-weight:800;color:#004c70;\">Clean-up Service<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"uvc-heading-spacer line_only\" style=\"topheight:1px;\"><span class=\"uvc-headings-line\" style=\"border-style:solid;border-bottom-width:1px;border-color:#ccc;width:1px;\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"uvc-sub-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-51876631688356009 .uvc-sub-heading '  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:18px;\",\"line-height\":\"desktop:26px;\"}'  style=\"font-family:'Lato';font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Vegetation will be cut down<\/li>\n<li>The grow medium will be topped up<\/li>\n<li>The mats will be levelled<\/li>\n<li>Fertilizer will be applied, if specified in your contract<\/li>\n<li>Unwanted species will be removed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/div><\/div><div id=\"ultimate-heading-92646631688356059\" class=\"uvc-heading ult-adjust-bottom-margin ultimate-heading-92646631688356059 uvc-1703 \" data-hspacer=\"line_only\"  data-halign=\"left\" style=\"text-align:left\"><div class=\"uvc-main-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-92646631688356059 h2'  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:30px;mobile_landscape:26px;mobile:26px;\",\"line-height\":\"\"}' ><h2 style=\"font-family:'Raleway';font-weight:800;color:#004c70;\">Check-up Checklist<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"uvc-heading-spacer line_only\" style=\"topheight:1px;\"><span class=\"uvc-headings-line\" style=\"border-style:solid;border-bottom-width:1px;border-color:#ccc;width:1px;\"><\/span><\/div><div class=\"uvc-sub-heading ult-responsive\"  data-ultimate-target='.uvc-heading.ultimate-heading-92646631688356059 .uvc-sub-heading '  data-responsive-json-new='{\"font-size\":\"desktop:18px;\",\"line-height\":\"desktop:26px;\"}'  style=\"font-family:'Lato';font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Photos will be taken and the general condition of the roof will be documented<\/li>\n<li>The drains will be cleared of any debris<\/li>\n<li>Any garbage will be removed<\/li>\n<li>Ballast will be cleaned and weeded<\/li>\n<li>Water levels in the drainage board will be measured and documented<\/li>\n<li>Weather conditions will be documented<\/li>\n<li>Unwanted species will be removed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;975&#8243;

Succulents, such as sedum or stone crop, are a common type of plant used on <strong>living roofs<\/strong> in North America and Europe. Sedum is a ground cover commonly found in alpine regions characterized by harsh climates, which makes these plants suitable for rooftop growth. Our pre-grown sedum include eight to ten species that are decorated with both bright and earth-tone colors. The second type of vegetation used is native meadow and prairie species. This mat consists of twenty different species of prairie grasses and wild flowers that are indigenous to Southern Ontario. These plants flower throughout the summer and provide a mixture of bright colors. Like sedum, this native vegetation is found growing naturally in tougher conditions where soil and moisture are both limited, which makes it ideal for rooftop conditions.<\/p>\n<h3>What types of living roof systems does NEDLAW install?<\/h3>\n<p>NEDLAW <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong> typically use a layered living roof system as it provides greater flexibility in design and application compared to a modular system. However, we can produce and install modular systems if requested.<\/p>\n<h3>What component materials are included in a layered living roof system?<\/h3>\n<p>No matter the type of roof that you start with, there are seven general layers that typically compose a living roof: the structural support, roofing membrane, a root barrier, drainage, a filter, growing medium, and vegetation.<\/p>\n<h3>Is the growing medium essentially topsoil?<\/h3>\n<p>No, the growing medium is a specially formulated lightweight mix designed for high water-retention capacity and a low density. Once in contact with moisture, the growing medium\u2019s binding agents are activated to prevent soil loss due to wind and water erosion.<\/p>\n<h3>Are <strong>living roofs<\/strong> more susceptible to leaks or breakdown of the membrane?<\/h3>\n<p>No. In fact, a properly constructed living roof will extend the lifespan of your roof membrane, often by 30 to 50 years.<\/p>\n<h3>Is a new roof membrane required before an installation?<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s very important to verify the integrity of the membrane before installing a living roof. If the membrane is still in good condition and is at less than half its expected lifespan, the membrane will not need to be replaced. However, if the membrane is in poor condition or over half its expected lifespan, the membrane should be replaced.<\/p>\n<h3>What types of roof decks can you install a living roof on?<\/h3>\n<p>NEDLAW <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong> systems have been built on steel, concrete and wooden roof decks.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the weight load of a NEDLAW <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong> system?<\/h3>\n<p>Weight load can vary significantly depending on the soil depth used. Our sedum Living Roof system requires as little as one to two inches of growing medium or as much as four inches. Accordingly, weight can vary from ten to twenty pounds per square foot. Our Native Meadow Living Roof system requires four to six inches of growing medium for a weight load of between twenty to thirty pounds per square foot.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the R value of the system?<\/h3>\n<p>The R value of our <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong> range from twenty to fifty, depending on the depth of growing medium.<\/p>\n<h3>What about the warranty?<\/h3>\n<p>The NEDLAW <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong> standard warranty guarantees: the workmanship of the installation for the life of the membrane, that all components of the landscaping system will perform as per spec for the life of the membrane, as will all vegetation from the date the installation is completed.<\/p>\n<h3>What are the conditions of warranty?<\/h3>\n<p>NEDLAW requires that all maintenance be conducted as per specification and that it be carried out by NEDLAW <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong> or a NEDLAW <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong>-certified installer. Any removal and replacement of the living roof, due to other work required, must also be completed by a certified installer.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the cost?<\/h3>\n<p>The cost of a NEDLAW <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong> system varies depending on materials required and the detail of the work. In general, prices can range from $8\/sq. ft to $50\/sq. ft. On average, prices range from $10 to $15\/sq. ft.<\/p>\n<h3>What maintenance is required?<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s a misconception that <strong>living roofs<\/strong> require no maintenance. All NEDLAW <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong> systems come with a full two-year maintenance package. See Service for more details.<\/p>\n<h3>How many Living Roofs has NEDLAW installed?<\/h3>\n<p>According to a 2007 industry survey, NEDLAW <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong> systems accounted for twenty-five percent of all <strong>living roofs<\/strong> installed in Ontario. By the end of 2008, we will have installed over 70,000 sq. ft. of Living Roofs.<\/p>\n<h3>Can a living roof system be applied towards LEED designation? If so, what points can be awarded for a NEDLAW system?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, the installation of a NEDLAW <strong>Living Roofs<\/strong> system can be applied towards LEED designation, and will play a role in the following points:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sustainable Sites:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>SS 6.1: Storm-water Management \u2013 Rate &amp; Quantity<\/li>\n<li>SS 7.2: Heat Island Effect: Roof<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Water Efficiency:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>WE 1.1: Water Efficient Landscaping: Reduce by 50 %<\/li>\n<li>WE 1.2: No Potable Water Use or No Irrigation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Energy &amp; Atmosphere<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>EA 1.1: Optimize Energy Performance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Materials &amp; Resources:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>MR 4.1 &amp; 4.2: Must contain 7.5 % to 15 % recycled content<\/li>\n<li>MR 5.1 &amp; 5.2: Must consist of 10 % to 20 % regional materials<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Innovation &amp; Design Process:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>ID 1.1: Innovation in Design<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=&#8221;FAQs for Engineers&#8221; style=&#8221;text_only&#8221; color=&#8221;white&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Is the growing medium essentially topsoil?<\/h3>\n<p>No, the growing medium is a specially formulated lightweight mix designed for high water-retention capacity and a low density.
