Location: Purmerend. Executed by DB Dakwerken.
The purchase of this large property in Purmerend was the moment for the owners to also tackle the roof. The old covering was worn out. Therefore, DB Dakwerken overlaid the entire roof surface with bitumen featuring white slate chippings.
A light finish over the entire roof surface
The white slate chippings give the covering a light surface that reflects sunlight. This helps limit the absorption of solar heat by the roof. For this project, this finish has been applied across the entire roof surface.
The new roofing has also been connected around the chimneys and the skylight. These interruptions in the roof required careful finishing so that the new layer functions as a single unit.
The owners now have a renewed roof finish with a light top layer. Both the large surface area and the connections to the existing roof components were included in the renovation.
