Aesthetic Review in Heerenveen
Before the municipality grants a building permit, it requests advice from the aesthetic review committee hus en hiem. That committee assesses whether a building plan meets the aesthetic requirements from the aesthetic review policy. The policy includes three accompanying maps with area levels, district designations and image quality plans. For renovations or extensions in Heerenveen it is advisable to check in advance the applicable area criteria in the Welstandsnota 2016, so that you know which requirements apply to your location. We check those requirements upfront, so that 90% of our designs pass the aesthetic review first time.
How your application works in Heerenveen
Your application in Heerenveen follows a fixed set of steps: a free intake, the design with an aesthetic review check in advance, a structural calculation by our KIWA-certified structural engineer where needed, and then we submit the building permit to the municipality of Heerenveen. The drawing work is done digitally and remotely, and you follow every step in your own online file, from quote to completion. Whether you live in Heerenveen or elsewhere in Zuidoost-Friesland, you pay the same fixed price upfront.
