Our services for terrace construction in Brussels

We design and create all types of terraces in the Brussels-Capital Region, taking into account the layout of your land or roof, your budget and your aesthetic desires.

Ground-level or natural terrain terraces

Ideal for gardens and yards, these terraces require excavation and soil stabilization:

We ensure rainwater drainage, leveling, and integration with the surroundings (pathway, lawn, fence...).

Terraces on adjustable pedestals

Common in Brussels for apartments or terraced houses, these terraces rest on an existing surface:

  • flat roof, concrete slab, old terrace...
  • installation of slabs or boards on adjustable pedestals,
  • excellent drainage, quick installation, easy disassembly.

The most commonly used materials are ceramic stoneware, composite wood, or Belgian blue stone.

Raised or suspended terraces

To access a garden from a floor, fit out a balcony, or create an outdoor platform, we carry out:

  • supporting structure in galvanized steel or treated wood,
  • terrace flooring in boards or slabs on joists,
  • secure railing, integrated stairs.

These constructions require a prior structural study and, often, a planning declaration or permit.

The 5 steps of a terrace project with Avenir Rénovations

The 5 steps of a terrace project with Avenir Rénovations

Avenir Rénovations builds your terrace in Brussels in 5 steps: site study, material selection, quote, complete execution, and maintenance advice for a durable and aesthetic result.

Why have your terrace built by a professional in Brussels?

Hiring a pro for your terrace in Brussels guarantees durability, compliance with urban planning rules, and harmonious integration into your home.

A well-designed terrace is frost-resistant, stable, non-slip, and durable. It should not move, retain water, or have level defects. Our craftsmen adhere to these technical requirements.

On the facade, elevated or visible from the street, a terrace may require a planning permit. Avenir Rénovations will assist you with the procedures if needed.

Materials, level, slope, type of soil, adjacency: nothing is improvised. A professional adapts the terrace to your home and ensures a clean, safe, and durable finish.

Concrete example of terrace construction in Brussels

Mrs. Van der Elst, owner of an apartment in Forest with access to an unused flat roof, wanted to create a terrace without modifying the supporting structure. Avenir Rénovations proposed a terrace on pedestals, with:

  • easy access from the existing bay window,
  • recessed LED lighting on a sensor.

Area: 18 m²

Total amount (VAT included 6%): 5,860 €

Duration of the project: 4 days

Result: a new outdoor living space, practical, elegant, and perfectly integrated into the building.

What you need to know before building a terrace in Brussels

Do you need a permit to build a terrace?

Not necessarily. A ground-level terrace does not require permission. However, elevated terraces, those on roofs, or visible from the street may require a planning declaration or a permit. We will check this with you and prepare the documents if necessary.

What is the most suitable material for Brussels?

Composite wood and ceramic stone are widely used for their durability and low maintenance. Belgian blue stone remains a timeless classic. The choice depends on the desired style, usage, and exposure.

What is the duration of the construction?

Between 2 and 7 days depending on the configuration, area, and installation technique. A terrace on pedestals is quicker to install than a masonry or suspended terrace.

Can I combine the terrace with other work?

Yes. We offer complete coordination with paving, lighting, the installation of shade sails, pergolas, or the creation of planters and borders.
