  • ABOUT THIS SERVICE

An extension to your home in Lelystad

The first residents of Lelystad got their keys in the Zuiderzeewijk in 1967; neighbourhoods such as the Atolwijk and the Waterwijk followed in the seventies and eighties. Many of those homes have a back garden with room for an extension. And with a house of that age, an extension is often a good moment to tackle the kitchen, the pipes or the consumer unit as well.

An uitbouw (rear extension) makes an existing room bigger, usually the living room or kitchen. An aanbouw is a new room built onto the house. In Lelystad, people choose an extension to:

  • A bigger kitchen-diner on the garden side
  • An extra bedroom or workspace downstairs
  • A bathroom on the ground floor
  • More daylight with sliding doors to the garden
  • Room for a growing family
  • Staying in the neighbourhood where you feel at home

First a look at the ground

Lelystad lies on the bed of the former Zuiderzee, about three metres below sea level, and the municipality lists subsidence as a local risk. That is why, for an extension, we first take a good look at the ground and the existing house before we decide on the foundation.

What is included?

  • A fixed price on paper, before we start
  • Foundation, walls, roof and frames by one company
  • A steel beam at the opening in the back wall
  • A tidy work area afterwards
  • One fixed contact during the build
  • 1-year guarantee on the work carried out

Not included

  • Fees of the municipality of Lelystad, if a permit is needed
  • Building drawings or structural calculations, unless they are in the quote
  • OUR SERVICES

How we build an extension in Lelystad

Reinforcement mesh in insulated foundation formwork for an extension, ready for the concrete pour

Foundation

On Lelystad's former seabed we match the foundation to the ground: insulated formwork, reinforcement and poured concrete for the foundation and the floor.

Steel beam above the new opening in the back wall, with the timber joists of the flat roof

Steel beam

With a rear extension the back wall is opened up. A steel beam then carries the wall above it, so the new room and the house become one.

Side wall of a timber-frame extension with insulation boards, partly faced with red brickwork

Brickwork or timber frame

Brick-built or timber frame, with a brick façade that matches the rest of the street. A timber frame is lighter, which can be an advantage on soft ground.

Timber joists of the flat roof on the walls and the steel beam of an extension

Flat roof

An insulated flat roof with timber joists and bitumen roofing, with a neat roof edge and proper drainage for the rainwater.

Black sliding doors in the back wall of a new red brick extension

Sliding doors and frames

Sliding doors to the garden or extra windows for more daylight. We fit them watertight and finish them neatly into the brickwork.

Walls and ceilings plastered smooth during renovation

Finishing inside

Plastering, flooring, electrics and heating in the new room. This is often also the moment to renew old pipes or the consumer unit at the same time.

    Very happy that I found Mohammed via Werkspot! Clear communication about what he can do, a clear quote, and he keeps going with his work until it is finished! He thought along well about different options. The leak problem upstairs was neatly solved and after that I had a whole new toilet put in downstairs! Clearly this man has managed to turn his hobby into his job, lovely to see!

    Mohammed and his colleague did a very good job. Everything to my satisfaction and everything as agreed. The drain runs freely again, the leaks have been fixed and the new taps work without any problems! Next time I will call him straight away again!

  • FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions about an extension in Lelystad

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

Do I need a permit for an extension in Lelystad?

Often not. At the back of the house you may build without a permit under certain conditions, for example up to 4 metres deep. Whether that applies to your home depends on the size, the position and the rules of the municipality of Lelystad. Do the permit check on the Omgevingsloket, the government's permit portal, or ask us: we will look at it with you.

What does an extension in Lelystad cost?

That depends on the size, the foundation, the choice of brickwork or timber frame, the roof and the doors. You always get a quote with a fixed price from us first. Feel free to send a photo of the back of your house and the measurements on WhatsApp for a first estimate.

What should I watch out for with the foundation in Lelystad?

Lelystad lies on the bed of the former Zuiderzee, about three metres below sea level, and the municipality lists subsidence as a local risk. So we first look at the ground and at how your house is founded, and match the foundation of the extension to that.

Do you build extensions in every part of Lelystad?

Yes. From the Zuiderzeewijk, the Atolwijk and the Stadshart to the Kustwijk, Lelystad-Haven and Warande. We work from Almere and drive to Lelystad via the A6.

Brickwork or timber frame: what suits Lelystad?

Both give you a sturdy, well-insulated extension. A timber frame is lighter and quicker to put up; a brick extension is the traditional way. With a brick façade they look the same from the outside. We will advise you on what suits your house and the ground best.

Can I stay at home during the build?

Usually, yes. Most of the work happens outside, and the back wall is only opened up when it needs to be. We keep the work area safe and tidy.

An extension in Lelystad?

Send us a photo of the back of your house and tell us the measurements you have in mind, on WhatsApp or through the quote form. We will make an appointment and give you a quote with a fixed price.
