Covered patio or garden building in Amsterdam

Amsterdam has more than 474,000 homes. 87% are flats, 70% are rented (40% from a housing association) and 80% were built before 2000 (CBS, 2023). With 13% single-family homes, a garden is the exception rather than the rule in Amsterdam; an extension or covered patio usually concerns a ground-floor home with a garden. Amsterdam has extra rules for listed buildings and protected cityscapes. Always do the permit check on the Omgevingsloket first. Many Amsterdam homes were built before 1960. Lead was banned in 1960, but checks in 2021 still found lead in 3,987 of the 87,312 pre-1960 homes of Amsterdam housing associations, mostly in Amsterdam-Noord.

In an Amsterdam city garden space is limited and fences are close to the neighbours. We help you choose a covered patio that fits and drains the rainwater properly.

  • FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions about a canopy or garden house in Amsterdam

Is your question not listed? Feel free to call or WhatsApp us, also outside office hours.

Do I need a permit for a covered patio in Amsterdam?

In the back garden often not, but that depends on the size, height and position. Amsterdam has extra rules for listed buildings and protected cityscapes. Always do the permit check on the Omgevingsloket first.

Will a garden building fit in my garden in Amsterdam?

With 13% single-family homes, a garden is the exception rather than the rule in Amsterdam; an extension or covered patio usually concerns a ground-floor home with a garden. Send a photo and the measurements and we will help you decide.
