The specification
The client, St. Martins Property Investments, opted to use the Bauder extensive green roof finish, combined with Bauder’s Bakor waterproofing build up - a durable hot melt system installed at a comparatively low cost compared to traditional felt solutions.
The result
With both the waterproofing and the sedum blanket finish being sourced from one supplier, complete compatibility was guaranteed providing the client with an ‘immediate’ green roof finish and waterproofing build up with a life expectancy in line with that of the structure.
