Chicago boasts over 5 million square feet of green roofs, yet much of this space does not meet current city ordinance standards. Proper maintenance of green roofs helps reduce the urban heat island effect, conserves water, improves air quality, lowers energy consumption, and creates additional usable space.

With Anne Roberts Gardens’ expertise and commitment to sustainable landscapes, we are uniquely positioned to design, refurbish, or maintain your green roof. We ensure your space meets or exceeds LEED and city standards, transforming it into a lush, beautiful environment.

Green roof design is intricate, requiring specific plant mediums, knowledge of building surfaces, and effective water management. When executed properly, green roofs can capture up to 80% of rainwater, reduce energy consumption, and enhance the quality of life for building occupants.
