Mount Maunganui Homeowners Embrace Green Living

Homeowners in Mount Maunganui transformed their plain garage roof into a lush, living space using Click ‘n Go Sedumtrays. The 55m² green roof boosts biodiversity, improves the view, and proves how even small rooftops can create a big environmental impact.

Multifunctional surface

Every part of the roof contributes. Rainwater is buffered and nature is given room to grow.

Climate adaptive design

The roof stores water during heavy rainfall and helps cool the surroundings during summer heat.

Biodiversity in the built environment

A diverse planting plan attracts pollinators, birds and native insects. This turns the roof into a thriving ecosystem.

A Stunning Green Roof Transformation in the beautiful coastal town of Mount Maunganui, private homeowners transformed their plain, grey garage roof into a lush green retreat. Originally designed with reinforced structure over a decade ago, the roof was given a vibrant makeover with Click ‘n Go Sedumtrays by Sempergreen New Zealand.

After seeing sample trays during a consultation, the homeowners immediately chose the Click ‘n Go Sedumtrays as their ideal solution. The design included a 250mm pebble margin for containment and aesthetics. To maintain the greenery, an automatic spray irrigation system was installed, using an on-site bore pump for unlimited water supply.

Other view and enhanced biodiversity

The plant selection was tailored to their preferences, ensuring a mix of Sedum species that offered vibrant yet harmonious tones, avoiding bright yellows as requested.

What was once a dull, lifeless roof is now a thriving, biodiverse ecosystem

The new green roof has transformed the view from their home and enhanced biodiversity. What was once a dull, lifeless roof is now a thriving, biodiverse ecosystem that not only enhances the couple’s view but also contributes to the local environment. The homeowners are thrilled with the increased presence of birds, bees, and insects, including a Blackbird that has made the roof its daily perch.
