Learn more about roof gardens in Amsterdam
Building a roof garden in Amsterdam requires knowledge and experience. Not every roof is immediately suitable, and often there are specific requirements from the municipality. We always start with a non-binding appointment in which we look at your roof and discuss what is possible. This is followed by a design that fits your wishes and the possibilities of the building. Then we arrange the construction, from substructure to planting, and we can also take care of the maintenance. In this way you are assured of a sustainable roof garden that you can enjoy for years to come.
Our experience with roof gardens in Amsterdam
At Groendakspecialist, we don’t just talk about the benefits of a roof garden – we have realized them ourselves in Amsterdam. For example, we recently successfully completed a green roof project in the city. The roof was completely transformed into a green living space that is not only aesthetically beautiful, but also offers many practical benefits.
During this project we noticed how important it is to think along with the resident and the municipality from the start. Together we looked at the possibilities for subsidies, the carrying capacity of the roof and the type of planting that would look best in an urban environment. The result is a roof garden that makes the city a little greener, insulates the house better and offers a nice place to enjoy peace and nature – right in the middle of Amsterdam.
Subsidy roof garden Amsterdam
The City of Amsterdam encourages residents and businesses to make their city greener. That is why there is the Subsidy Green Amsterdam. This scheme allows you to get a portion of the cost of a roof garden back. Depending on the size and type of roof, this can make quite a difference in the total investment. Applying for a subsidy can be quite complicated, so we help you step by step in filling out and submitting the application. This way you can be sure that you take full advantage of the possibilities.
Roof garden Zuidpark Amsterdam
Around Zuidpark in Amsterdam, interest in roof gardens is growing rapidly. More and more residents, apartment complexes and VvEs are seeing the benefits of a green outdoor space on the roof. A roof garden there is the way to create extra living space, enjoy greenery together with neighbors and at the same time contribute to a more sustainable urban climate.
Especially in densely built-up neighborhoods around South Park, the value of a roof garden is becoming increasingly clear: less heat stress in summer, better water collection during heavy rainfall and a more attractive living environment. It is therefore not surprising that more and more initiatives are emerging to build a roof garden together.
