Canopy in the Netherlands - design, costs and permits
A canopy protects a terrace, garden lounge, outdoor kitchen or car from rain and sun without creating a fully enclosed room. We design, plan and build it with clear advice, fixed pricing and one accountable team.
This page explains the main choices for a canopy: layout, materials, budget, planning and whether a permit is likely to be needed.
A good canopy balances span, posts, roof material and sightlines so the garden remains open and practical.
