This is because a green roof removes dust particles from the air.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019ll spend less on roof maintenance. This is because a green roof lasts longer than a standard roof.<\/li>\n<li>A green roof will increase the value of your home.<\/li>\n<li>With lots of green roofs, Apeldoorn is becoming even greener. This creates more opportunities for flora and fauna and improves the quality of life.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How much does it cost?<\/h2>\n<p>The cost of installing a green roof is determined by:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the quality<\/li>\n<li>the size<\/li>\n<li>the type of planting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Please bear in mind that an extensive roof (such as a sedum roof) costs an average of \u20ac50 per m\u00b2. An intensive roof garden costs an average of \u20ac120 per m\u00b2.<\/p>\n<p>Will you need to modify the roof structure (or have it modified) in order to install the green roof? If so, those costs will of course be added on.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you look after it?<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>A few times a year, remove any seeds that have been blown onto your roof from trees.<\/li>\n<li>Check from time to time that the rainwater drain is not blocked. Clean it if necessary.<\/li>\n<li>Water your green roof if there\u2019s been a spell of dry weather.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>What do we do?<\/h3>\n<p>We believe it is important that you play your part in \u2018Groen Doen\u2019. That is why we are happy to help you with this. You can receive a grant towards the installation of a green roof. You can apply for the grant via the page\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apeldoorn.nl\/regelen-en-weten\/subsidies\/subsidies-inwoners\/duurzaam-huis-en-tuin\/subsidie-groene-daken\/\">Green roof grant<\/a>. You can also find out what the conditions are there. For example, which areas of Apeldoorn the grant applies to.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\t\t\t\t<div data-acfblock=\"Afbeeldingen-enkel\" class=\"section editor section--blue\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row justify-content-center editor__wide-image elementOnTop\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"col-12 col-lg-10 editor__image-container\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<picture>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.apeldoorn.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/groen-dak.jpg\" alt=\"roof with natural green roofing\"\/>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/picture>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption>\r\nExample of a green roof\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A green roof collects rainwater.
