Turf is a popular way to green a roof or balcony.
Weight
Turf is far lighter than sod, soil or heavy planters. Still, check the load limits.
Drainage
A drainage layer lets water pass to the drains so nothing pools on the deck.
Wind and edges
Edges must be fastened for wind. We choose a method that suits your surface.
Rules
Many buildings have rules for balconies and roofs. Ask first.
