The 5 steps of a roof renovation with Avenir Rénovations

The 5 steps of a roof renovation with Avenir Rénovations

Avenir Rénovations ensures your roof renovation in Brussels: diagnosis, choice of materials, complete estimate, careful execution, and acceptance with guarantees for a durable and compliant result.

Why renovate your roof with a professional in Brussels?

Renovating your roof in Brussels with a professional guarantees compliance with strict standards, major energy improvement, and consideration of specific local constraints for a safe and efficient construction site.

The Brussels-Capital Region imposes precise rules on the appearance, insulation, and ventilation of roofs. We guarantee a construction site that complies with all regulations.

The roof is responsible for 25 to 30% of thermal losses in a home. A well-thought-out renovation can improve several energy performance rating (PEB) classes.

Difficult access, adjoining properties, old buildings, protected areas… Brussels requires a rigorous technical approach. Our roofers are trained to handle these constraints.

FAQ – Roof renovation in Brussels

Do I need to apply for a planning permit to redo my roof?

Yes, in some cases. A simple like-for-like replacement often only requires a declaration. However, any change in appearance (color, material, slope) or insulation requires municipal authorization. We assist you with these procedures.

What is the duration of a roofing project?

Between 5 days and 3 weeks depending on the area, complexity, and weather. We plan each step realistically, with a dedicated site manager.

What materials should be favored in Brussels?

Clay tiles, natural slate, zinc, and EPDM are the most commonly used. Some neighborhoods impose specific materials. We advise you according to your municipality.

Can I insulate my roof without completely renovating it?

Yes, if the condition of the covering allows it. We can insulate from the inside with thin or blown materials. However, for effective sarking, a complete renovation is necessary.

Are grants cumulative?

Yes. Roof insulation aids can be combined with those for heating, ventilation, or joinery. A housing audit allows for centralization of everything.
