A building company in Naarden for structure, services and finishing
CBS Renovation works as a building contractor in Naarden and the rest of Gooise Meren. We renovate and remodel houses, build extensions, carry out new build and take on offices and business premises for commercial clients.
Housing in Naarden varies widely. Inside the ramparts of the fortified town stand old properties, a number of them listed; outside it you find pre-war houses along the older approach roads and post-war terraces and semi-detached homes. Two houses a hundred metres apart can therefore call for a different plan. We first look at what is actually there and what can be done, and only then does the work go into a quotation with every element priced on its own.
The job runs under one contract: strip-out and structure, pipework and electrics, tiling, plastering, carpentry and painting. You keep one contact person, a price settled before the first day on site and a programme we follow up during the build. Kitchens and bathrooms are done inside that same job, so the pipework, the tiling and the fitting meet as they should. If you have moved to het Gooi from abroad, it also means one company dealing with the trades, the permit application and the paperwork.

What we carry out as a contractor in Naarden
Each element is described on its own below. On site they overlap: within a single renovation the structure, the services and the finishing follow one another in a fixed order.
Full renovation and remodelling
A full renovation starts with an empty house. The new layout, the brickwork and carpentry, the pipework and the electrics come first; the plastering, the floors and the paintwork come last. In a pre-war property the meter cupboard and the wiring nearly always go with it, because they decide how many circuits the house has and how safe it is. Where the work covers one floor or one side of the house, the same project manager sees it through.

Extensions
An extension on the garden side gives the ground floor room the existing walls cannot. We draw the plans, calculate the structure, apply for the omgevingsvergunning, the Dutch building permit, and build the shell: foundation, walls, roof and window frames. The finishing follows, with the connections to heating, water and electrics. On Meentweg 62 in Bussum we built a two-storey extension on a house dating from 1920.

Bathrooms, toilets and kitchens
Renewing a bathroom means stripping it back to the floor, moving pipework and waste, fitting ventilation, and only then tiling and installing. We do that inside the renovation, so the tiling meets the floor in the hallway and the electrics are sorted in one pass. At Meentweg 62 the bathrooms and toilets were handed over turn-key; at Kortenaerlaan the house gained two bathrooms and separate toilets.
Floors, staircases and underfloor heating
Floors are laid as part of the project: timber, PVC or tiles, with or without underfloor heating. In an older house that begins in the crawl space and with floor insulation, since both of them decide how much underfloor heating will actually do for you. The staircase belongs to the same job – at Meentweg 62 it was finished to match the floors. In a newly built extension the pipes are laid into the screed from the start.
More about underfloor heating
Insulation, building services and heat pumps
Roof, floor and facade insulation is best done during a renovation, at the point when the walls and floors are already open. The services follow: consumer unit and wiring, water and drainage, extract ventilation and, once the house can take it, a heat pump with underfloor heating. A house from 1905 in Bussum went from energy label G to A+++ that way, with PIR insulation, HR++ glazing and solar panels on the roof.

Masonry, plastering and painting
Outdoors the work comes down to repointing, repairing brickwork, altering openings in walls and replacing the rainwater system. At Meentweg 62 the rainwater goods were renewed in zinc and every window and external door was replaced in timber. Indoors we plaster walls and ceilings and paint the joinery: skirtings, window sills, internal doors and ironmongery. Painting inside and out is priced as a line of its own, so it stays comparable with the rest of the quotation.

Commercial property and new build
Besides houses we remodel offices, shops and business premises, including giving a building a different function with the structural work and the services that requires. For new build we work from the foundation through to handover, in the same order as on a house: a survey, an itemised quotation and one contact person. Where the building stays in use during the work, the programme is fitted around the hours it is occupied.

What clients say
Working area: Naarden, Gooise Meren and het Gooi
Naarden forms the municipality of Gooise Meren together with Bussum, Muiden and Muiderberg. From there our working area covers het Gooi and the neighbouring part of the province of Utrecht. Our office in Breukelen is one drive from Naarden, which keeps a second survey or a visit to the site easy to arrange. Wherever the project sits, the order stays the same: a survey at the property, an itemised quotation and one contact person through to handover.
Frequently asked questions about renovating in Naarden
Yes. Naarden belongs to Gooise Meren along with Bussum, Muiden and Muiderberg, and that municipality sits inside our working area. Our office is in Breukelen and the drive to Naarden is short. The completed projects shown on this site are in the neighbouring towns: Bussum, Hilversum and Laren. For a house in Naarden it starts as it does anywhere else, with a survey at the property.
We name a figure only after the survey. It depends on how much work there is, on what sits behind the walls and on the materials you choose; in a pre-war house the wiring or the floor often has to be included. After the visit you receive a quotation with every element listed separately, so you can see where the money goes.
Yes. In the neighbouring towns we have worked on a house from 1905, one from 1914 and a semi-detached house from 1920, as well as a 1929 property in the 1930s style. In houses like these the wooden floors, the single glazing, the old pointing and an outdated meter cupboard usually go into the work, while the character of the house stays as it is.
Yes. For the house at Meentweg 62 in Bussum we prepared the architectural drawings, the structural calculations and the construction drawings, and filed the application for the omgevingsvergunning. Whether an extension needs a permit depends on its size, on where it sits on the plot and on the rules that apply at that address. We check that before a plan is worked out, and we file the application for you.
The design and the structural calculation come first, then the permit where one is needed. After that come the foundation, the walls, the roof and the window frames, and last the finishing, with heating, water and electrics. At Meentweg 62 in Bussum we built a two-storey extension on a house from 1920 that way, with new wooden frames and external doors.
Those elements are carried out inside a project. The pipework, the floor and the electrics are then dealt with in the same pass, and the finished work lines up with the rest of the house. At Meentweg 62 the bathrooms and toilets were finished turn-key and the staircase was finished to match the floors. Name the part you want dealt with and we will see how it fits into one job.
Yes. Insulation of the roof, the floor and the facade is carried out inside the renovation, while the walls and floors are open. A heat pump comes into play once the house holds enough insulation and the heat can be given off at a low temperature, through underfloor heating for instance. A 1905 house in Bussum went from label G to A+++; at Meentweg 62 the house runs on electricity alone.
