Installation
GreenGrid® is engineered for simplicity and efficiency, making it the most contractor- and owner-friendly modular green roof system on the market. Its innovative, self-contained design allows for flexible, phased installation—even in most weather conditions, with the exception of hard freezes and deep snow.
To support your project, we provide a comprehensive GreenGrid® Installation Guide, based on over a decade of field experience. For quicker reference, many installers rely on our 1 page “Quick Start Guide,” which simplifies the process to something as intuitive as placing Lego™ blocks on a roof. No edging is required unless modules are cut, and no interconnections are needed unless the roof is sloped or wind exposure is a concern. Best of all, no certified installer is required.
We equip you with everything needed for a smooth, successful installation. Typical crews of 4–8 laborers can install between 2,100 and 8,400 square feet per day—equivalent to 1 to 4 truckloads of palletized, wrapped modules—making GreenGrid® the most efficient green roof solution available.
- Delivery Coordination: Advanced planning is essential. We offer dedicated, scheduled deliveries for replanted modules, which are intended to be installed the day they arrive.
- Equipment Requirements: Ensure proper and safe hoisting equipment is available. Use carts or similar equipment to transport modules around the rooftop.
- Labor Planning: Organize crews in even-numbered teams to allow for safe two-person lifting of each module.
- Surface Protection: Prepare the roof by safeguarding the waterproofing membrane prior to installation.
- Post-installation Care: Water the system immediately after installation to help mitigate any stress from shipping and handling.
GreenGrid® makes installation quick and easy through its innovative, contractor friendly design.
