Green Roofing

In a few years, don’t be surprised if green roofs replace black tar roofs altogether. More and more businesses all over North America are realizing that they can do more for their communities, their image and their eco-friendliness if they turn their back on hundred-year-old roofing techniques in favor of something a new.

That something new we are referring to is green roofs. Rather than lay a bunch of black shingles that attract heat and are prone to wear and tear in the elements, covering your roof in beautiful, local plant life is a great way to make use of this all too often neglected space.

Green roofs last longer than conventional roofs, they reduce energy costs with natural insulation, create peaceful retreats for people and animal and absorb storm water, minimizing the strain placed on the complex and expensive drainage systems that your commercial building relies on to stave off hazardous water damage.

If you are ready to make the switch to a roofing system that is better equipped to handle today’s volatile and ever-changing climate, then contact RA Construction KC, LLC today. We are proud to have perfected the construction, installation and maintenance of green flat roofs for local commercial property and business owners.
