Rijswijk borders The Hague directly and has an exceptionally broad roof palette. In Steenvoorde and Rijswijk-Buiten, post-war apartment blocks with flat bitumen roofs dominate — roofs now 40 to 60 years old and structurally due for replacement and insulation to meet BENG 2026 standards. In Te Werve and Hoornwijck the classic terraced and semi-detached houses with tiled roofs and zinc gutters are the norm. In Pasgeld it is the detached villas with larger hip roofs that demand skilled zinc detailing. DG Dakwerken has worked across Rijswijk for years: small roof repairs, complete renewals for residents' associations including VCA documentation, and insulation work with PIR boards.

01 — Character
How do we work in Rijswijk?
Neighbour to The Hague — mix of 1950s flats, offices and villa areas.
02 — Local context
Which roofs are common in Rijswijk?
Rijswijk is a neighbouring municipality not to be underestimated. The districts of Steenvoorde and Rijswijk-Buiten consist largely of post-war apartment blocks and gallery-access flats built in the 1950s and 1960s — with flat bitumen roofs now 40 to 60 years old that never received the insulation layer that BENG 2026 standards now require. In Te Werve and Hoornwijck the story is different: classic 1960s and 70s terraced and semi-detached houses with tiled roofs, zinc gutters and chimneys that are ageing quietly. Pasgeld has the detached villa architecture with larger hip roofs and complex roof forms requiring more complex zinc work. Each district in Rijswijk presents a different challenge, and a one-size-fits-all approach simply does not work.
DG Dakwerken has worked across Rijswijk for years. A small tile repair in Hoornwijck, a complete roof renewal for a residents' association in Rijswijk-Buiten including VCA documentation, or a combined project of bitumen replacement plus 120mm PIR insulation to structurally improve energy performance: we handle all of it. From our Wateringen office we drive to Rijswijk in five minutes, for urgent roof leak repair in Rijswijk we are typically there the same day. We use transparent square-metre prices for flat roofs and a clear process for tiled roofs. Searching for a roofer in Rijswijk — the working method is what makes the difference: honest advice, fixed quote, craftsmanship with no hidden costs.
Rijswijk also has an industrial and commercial character: the Plaspoelpolder is one of the larger office areas close to The Hague, with commercial buildings whose flat roofs need maintenance. On these larger surfaces we work VCA-certified, with solid APP bitumen systems and proper roof insulation. The business parks along the A4 and the Vliet fall within our working area. For homeowners in historic neighbourhoods such as the Broekslootpark: we know the specific requirements for zinc gutters and stone chimney caps that belong there. Honest inspection, realistic lead times, for all Rijswijk roof types DG Dakwerken delivers the work you expect from a family business.

Roof repair & leaks
Roof repair in Rijswijk: the most common problems we encounter are cracked bitumen seams on older flat roofs in Rijswijk-Buiten, broken tiles after storms on terraced houses in Te Werve, and rusted zinc gutters on villas in Pasgeld. Causes are almost always age, freeze-thaw cycles in winter, or leaf accumulation in gutters that causes water to back up under the roof covering. For roof repair in Rijswijk we always start with a thorough inspection: without diagnosis even the cheapest repair is too expensive if you are back in the same spot two years later. Lead times: for acute roof leaks in Rijswijk we are there within a day; planned repairs we pick up on our regular Den Haag-South route.

03Can you handle residents'-association apartment blocks in Rijswijk-Buiten?
Yes, VvE projects are a specialty in Rijswijk. We carry out a full roof inspection with multi-year maintenance plan report, support the tender process for the residents' association board, and execute the work VCA-certified.

04What guarantee do you give on roofing work in Rijswijk?
All work carried out by DG Dakwerken in Rijswijk carries a 10-year guarantee on completed work (full roof renewal or renovation) — repair work is not covered by that guarantee. On top of that come manufacturers' guarantees — Iko/Esha bitumen up to 15 years, NedZink a minimum of 25 years. You always receive written guarantee confirmation at handover.
05Do you work with EPDM, bitumen and zinc in Rijswijk?
We work with all three in Rijswijk. On the post-war flat roofs in Rijswijk-Buiten we predominantly use APP/SBS bitumen (Iko, Esha). For smaller extensions and garages EPDM is often the best choice. NedZink we use for gutters and valleys on the terraced houses and villas in Pasgeld. We advise per situation.
