Living Wall Maintenance and Remedial Works

When living walls first arrived in the UK there were some rather well documented living wall disasters! Notably this school living wall on Paradise Passage in London – ironic! This was definitely a project without a living wall maintenance schedule in place.

Famously the irrigation had been switched off over the school holidays, it was a great shame and for some time hindered the progress of the living wall market here in the UK.

Fortunately innovation and knowledge has ensured that by and large living walls are cared for correctly.
