In Almere, many residential areas are in principle permit-free for aesthetic review purposes according to the aesthetic review policy, while city centres and main infrastructure are assessed against aesthetic review criteria. Bear in mind that when renovating the emphasis is mainly on the zoning plan and the structural calculation, and check in advance whether your location is permit-free for aesthetic review. We check those requirements in advance, which means 90% of our designs pass first time.
Your application in Almere follows fixed steps: a free intake, the design with an aesthetic-review check upfront, the structural calculation by our own structural engineer where needed, and then we submit the environmental permit to the municipality of Almere. We do the drawing work digitally and remotely, and you follow every step in your own online file, from quote to completion. Whether you live in Almere or elsewhere in Zuidelijk Flevoland, you pay the same fixed price upfront.
Since the Environment and Planning Act (Omgevingswet, 1 January 2024) you apply for an environmental permit via the Omgevingsloket. Some renovations are permit-free, others require a permit. Permit check included: if a permit turns out to be required, we submit it for you for €200 incl. VAT + municipal fees (set by your municipality).
Whether you can build without a permit depends on where the structure is located (the rear-garden zone), the height and the distance to the property boundary, and the municipality's environment and planning policy. A rear dormer or small extension is often permit-free; a roof extension, a front extension or work on a listed building almost never is. Even permit-free construction must comply with the technical building requirements of the Buildings Decree (Bbl).
If a permit is required, the standard procedure applies: the municipality decides within 8 weeks, with a one-off extension of 6 weeks. Your plans are assessed against the Buildings Decree (Bbl), the environment and planning policy, and the aesthetics committee criteria. In Almere we know and check the aesthetics policy from the municipality in advance, so your design passes the assessment first time. Read more about the applying for an environmental permit.
Alongside standalone drawing prices, we have three fixed packages: Drawing, Drawing + structural calculation and Complete (including submitting the environmental permit). See the packages and prices.
Answer three questions for an instant indication of whether you can build permit-free. Based on the national rules (Environment and Planning Act/Bbl); we always confirm it with a free check.
Almere is a planned growth city in southern Flevoland, where the first homes were completed in 1976 in Almere Haven. The housing stock is therefore relatively young and largely low-rise, with many plots offering scope for an extension, roof extension or dormer. Because many residential areas are free from aesthetic review requirements, the emphasis when renovating often lies on the zoning plan and the structure rather than on appearance.
We provide construction drawings, building permits and structural calculations in all neighbourhoods of Almere. The housing stock varies by area, and with it the typical renovation and aesthetic review requirements.
Our service area extends to the municipalities around Almere. There too we work remotely and submit the building permit to the relevant municipality.
Tekenpunt works throughout Flevoland. Also see our page for construction drawings and permits in these cities:
A 1980s gallery-access apartment block in Almere-Stad gained a complete extra storey of 48 m². We handled the lightweight steel frame design, the structural calculation and the building permit application. Partly thanks to the active Almere roof-extension scheme, the permit was granted quickly.
