The historic city centre has a high concentration of national monuments and is largely a protected cityscape, with strict requirements for facade and roof treatment during conversion or renovation. Newer expansions outside the ring offer mid-range ground-level homes, while the Paleiskwartier and the Spoorzone represent taller apartment construction. This determines which renovations are common in 's-Hertogenbosch and how best to set up an application.
Whether it concerns a dormer, a extension, a roof extension or the converting the loft: for each type we supply a permit-ready construction drawing that suits the homes in 's-Hertogenbosch and the requirements of the municipality. Are you unsure whether your renovation is permit-required? In our knowledge base read what is permit-free.
The Actualisering Welstandsnota 2011 forms the comprehensive framework for aesthetic review in 's-Hertogenbosch and contains criteria for material, colour and architectural design per area type. In addition, the municipality draws up image quality plans for specific development locations, such as Boschveld, Haverleij and Paleiskwartier-Zuid, which function as area-specific supplements to the aesthetic review policy. The Advisory Committee for Environmental Quality meets fortnightly in full session and weekly as a sub-committee; all meetings are open to the public. We check those requirements upfront, so that 90% of our designs pass the aesthetic review first time.
Your application in 's-Hertogenbosch follows fixed steps: a free intake, the design with an upfront aesthetic review check, where necessary the structural calculation by our KIWA-certified structural engineer, and then we submit the building permit application to the municipality of 's-Hertogenbosch. We carry out all drawing work digitally and remotely, and you can follow every step in your own online file, from quote to completion. Whether you live in 's-Hertogenbosch or elsewhere in North-East Brabant, you pay the same fixed price upfront.
Since the Environment and Planning Act came into force (1 January 2024), you apply for an environmental permit (planning permission) through the Environment Desk. Some renovations are permit-free, others require a permit. We carry out the permit check upfront so you know exactly where you stand.
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 's-Hertogenbosch we know and check the aesthetics policy from the municipality in advance, so your design passes the assessment first time.

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.
