Making homes more sustainable Woonbedrijf

Woonbedrijf is working hard to meet the sustainability requirements for the homes it owns, and we are even ahead of targets. By 2028, all 1425 Woonbedrijf homes will meet the set sustainability targets. This is good news for tenants as living comfort increases and energy costs decrease.

A certified consultant manages the energy labels of the Woonbedrijf's rental properties. They investigated how the Woonbedrijf could improve the energy efficiency of all homes. After this, Woonbedrijf set to work. Woonbedrijf started with the houses that are older and less energy efficient.

Nature Protection Act 

In (preservation) projects, the Woonbedrijf must always take into account the Nature Protection Act. This act protects animals such as house sparrows, swifts and bats. It is forbidden to kill, capture or damage these animals' habitats. It is therefore necessary to investigate whether protected species are present prior to a project. We therefore always have an ecological study carried out at the start of a project. We always opt for nature-friendly insulation and we provide replacement habitats if protected species are present. In addition, we avoid work during the breeding season of protected species. In this way, we can preserve homes without harming nature. 

Major maintenance and insulation of roofs

Major maintenance roofs several homes in Oostvoorne and Rockanje

The Woonbedrijf is having major maintenance performed on the roofs of several homes in Oostvoorne and Rockanje. The roof tiles will be replaced and at the same time we will insulate the roof. We also replace the skylights and lead-throughs. Sometimes we move the skylight to the shady side for more space for solar panels. The gutters are also renewed. If the tenant already has solar panels, we will temporarily remove them and replace them later. If a tenant does not yet have solar panels, they will receive an offer to have them installed. 

Planning

In January 2025 a start was made on the Koekoekslaan in Oostvoorne. Here, roofs have been additionally insulated and roof tiles replaced. The contractor is currently working on the roofs of the complex on Frambozenstraat/Moerbeistraat in Rockanje. The Wielewaal complex in Rockanje will follow after the construction period. The maintenance work will take about six weeks per complex. A total of 48 homes will be improved at these locations.

Ventilation heat pump and solar panels Vlinderslag

Major maintenance installations at Vlinderslag Oostvoorne

This year, Woonbedrijf is having the systems replaced. In the downstairs apartments, the central heating boilers will be replaced. The roof penetration and the room thermostat will also be replaced. 

At the upstairs apartments, the central heating boiler will be replaced and a ventilation heat pump will also be installed. 

The Woonbedrijf will also handle the purchase and maintenance of solar panels on the homes. 

Planning

We have now started this maintenance job on the Butterfly River. And we expect to be finished around October 2025. All residents have since received a notice about the start of the work.

The Woonbedrijf collected and processed all the data and passed it on to the relevant contractors. The Woonbedrijf has asked the company Energiewacht West to install the central heating boiler and heat pump, and the company IN2 Solar will install the solar panels. In the upper apartments, the company Elektra Vermeulen will also adjust the electricity in the attic.
