Hidden in Plain Sight...

It's Earth Week, and in preparation for Earth Day on the 22nd, we thought we'd kick off the week by sharing one of our favorite green roofs in Laguna Beach.

There's a good chance you'll miss it if you aren't looking closely, so next time you find yourself near PCH and Calliope Street, keep an eye out for one of the most charming, unexpected living roof installations in the area...

Have a great week and a very Happy Earth Day!

That roof is not only nice but it will help keep the area under the roof cool. It should be noted that green roofs over tile are a challenge in hot or dry areas. Also always speak to an engineer first to make sure your roof can handle the extra weight. JW Roofing
