Special job: Flemish barn in Tilburg

  • Blogs

This Flemish barn in Tilburg was built between 1881 and 1885 and used to serve as a coach house. In 2019, we started to reinforce the barn because it was about to collapse. In early 2021, the client made plans and completed permits with great passion. We started rebuilding and restoring the barn in February. First, the tiles and thatch were removed from the roof, then the floor was poured to give it strength again. Then the roof was restored and the thatch put on. 

We had a lot of fun working with the client, we discussed every detail together and made it work. We certainly experienced this as a pleasant collaboration! Compliments for the team that worked on this for about 10 weeks: Wim de Bruin and Bert-Jan Roelofs, brickwork: Jan Koppelman and Jan Slagman, work preparation: Gerald Voortman, carpentry: Joost Rozemuller and Hans Tijhuis.
