Roof Renovation in Overijse

The Huizing family wanted a roof that met the current insulation guidelines. They wanted advice on making ecological choices. The roof renovation in Overijse achieved these goals. The advice to use PIR insulation boards and Sopralene Monoflex fit into this ecological picture. We further explain why these materials are an excellent choice in the description of our realization.

The Importance of Sustainable Insulation Materials

One of the most important aspects of this project was the choice of materials. For the bottom insulation layer, we glued 12cm thick PIR insulation boards onto the roof floor.

PIR insulation boards are a sustainable choice due to their high insulation value and long lifespan. They are lightweight, which means they put less strain on the roof structure. Moreover, they are water- and pressure-resistant, contributing to their durability.

The Sopralene Monoflex

For the roofing, we chose Sopralene Monoflex. It is a durable material that withstands Belgian weather conditions. It is flexible and resistant to tearing, making it an excellent choice for protecting your roof.

Roofs with Sopralene Monoflex have a more attractive appearance and are better resistant to UV rays thanks to better adhesion of the granules.

The Insulation Guidelines

Our client wanted to comply with the current insulation guidelines. These guidelines are designed to make houses more energy-efficient. By choosing PIR insulation boards and Sopralene Monoflex, our client has a roof that not only meets these guidelines but is also sustainable and ecologically responsible.
