Our mission
Since 2010, De Dakdokters, -The Rooftop Doctors in English- improve urban health by transforming roofs. We see rooftops as something more than unusable covers to our houses; to us they are the sustainable motor for our urban future. We transform those unutilized roofs into places for nature development, recreation, water storage and food-and energy production.
In 2019 we want:
10.000 m2
More green on rooftops
6.000.000 Liters
Of rainwater that doesn’t end up in the sewer

High impact projects
What we do
Green Roofs
Contributing to a healthier city, cooling down your house during summer, and creating an idyllic view on your rooftop all at the same time? The green roof is what you are looking for!
Roof gardens & Roof terraces
Acquiring a house in the city with garden is something only a lucky few of us can manage. So why not create a garden on your rooftop with an additional view over the city?
Who we are
All specialties under one roof
Social Enterprise
Financially reliable
Sustainability also translates itself into the way we invest our profits. For us, being a healthy organization means a 5% annual profit. From this, we use 50% as a buffer in order to safeguard our continuity. Another 20% of the profits go to the stockholders, 20% to the staff and the final 10% is given to charity.
The Dakdokters are excellent – great craftsmanship paired with lots of good ideas. And most importantly – really great people that know their stuff so you can trust their decisions. Highly recommended!
