Consulting for Green Roofs - Waterproofing through Plants
Green Up, LLC is a roofing consulting firm in the Pacific Northwest that specializes in low-sloped commercial and
residential roofing with overburden including vegetation, photovoltaics, pavers and amenity spaces (collectively called “Green Roofing”). We have more than 15 years of local and national experience with many types of roofing, waterproofing and green roofing systems.
Our focus is on supporting the creation of long-term, thriving, and watertight green roofing, from early design through installation and maintenance. We help maximize the value of rooftop real estate and the return on the investment by supporting architects, installers, manufacturers and buildings owners in designing and maintaining high-performance roofing systems that can last for decades.
