THE MOST SUSTAINABLE AND FUNCTIONAL GREEN ROOF SYSTEM IN THE SOUTHEAST
James produces the LiveRoof® Hybrid Modular system for Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee and Florida. We specialize in heat and humidity tolerant green roof projects utilizing our experience from 15 years as a perennial plant supplier.
OUR TEAM
Our green roof components are custom grown, so from the start the James team is focused on client needs. We’ve developed a logistical approach that capitalizes on decades of growing and management experience. Our goal is for installation to flow seamlessly with the designer and builder’s process. In this way, James Greenroofs becomes and extension of your team.
Leah and Ken James
Owners and managers
Horticulturists by training and entrepreneurs at heart, Ken and Leah started their first company, James Greenhouses in 1998. This operation supplies commercial growers across North America with millions of young plants every year. They later founded James Greenroofs in 2012 to meet the emerging demand for sustainable building in the Southeast. Leveraging the strengths of both companies, they are able to deliver green roof projects of any size.
