Grand Rapids, Michigan is getting into the swing of green roofing. Green, vegetative roofing is gaining in popularity even in cities that do not experience the urban heat island effect. Areas like Traverse City are beginning to put greenery on their rooftops to increase the comfort level of their employees who must look out onto a lower rooftop while sitting at their desk. Springfield has been involved in the majority of the green vegetative roofing projects in northern Michigan with another green roof planned for the area of 8th street and Cass Road later this summer. If you prefer looking at green plants and flowers as opposed to roofing membrane – give us a call – we can help!
