Living in Ridderkerk
Riverside neighbourhoods, residential courts and village lanes
Ridderkerk’s heat vision records just over twenty thousand homes, a large share of them built between 1950 and 1975. The environmental vision describes how Bolnes, Slikkerveer and the west of Ridderkerk grew strongly in the late 1960s, how Drievliet emerged as a residential-court neighbourhood, and how Het Zand was added from the 1990s.
The year of construction does not automatically dictate the solution. It does tell us what to look at more closely during the survey: the condition of the existing frame, cold draughts at the glazing, ventilation, how the frame meets the brickwork, and the appearance of the façade as a whole. In apartments, especially in the riverside neighbourhoods, we first establish whether the frames belong to you or to the owners’ association.
01
Bolnes · Slikkerveer
1930s to post-war
Meeting existing façades precisely
Slikkerveer has many 1930s homes; Bolnes later grew with the shipyards. Much new housing was added in the late 1960s. We assess the old junction, ventilation and threshold for each opening. New profiles have to insulate, but they also have to sit calmly within the proportions of the façade.
02
Drievliet
Residential courts from the late 1970s
Comfort for volume-built residential courts
The municipality describes Drievliet as a typical late-1970s residential court layout: culs-de-sac, inner squares and clusters of similar terraced homes. Construction started at the end of the 1970s. Repeating window divisions make a coherent plan across several openings possible.
03
Het Zand · Rijsoord · Oostendam
Village lanes and later expansion
Colour and layout matched to the street
Het Zand was added in phases from the 1990s. Rijsoord and Oostendam remain recognisable as village lanes along the dike. We match colour, woodgrain finish and window type to the architecture, and take extra care where listed status or the village appearance is involved.
Advice per opening
No standard package, but one clear approach
During the appointment we look at more than the exterior. We discuss room by room how each window is used, where ventilation is needed, and whether noise, sun or security deserve extra attention. We then take final measurements, and you receive a quotation specifying the profile, glazing, operation and installation.
Soleca works largely with the Aluplast Ideal 7000 NL profile, and 42 mm HR+++ glazing is our standard on new frames. Every RAL-certified colour is available, and locks and hardware are supplied to SKG** as standard; SKG*** is available for a small surcharge.
Triple glazing and a properly fitted profile limit heat loss and cold draughts at the window.
Ventilation per room
We look at where a tilt-and-turn window, ventilation grille or insect screen is practical.
Appearance of the façade
Colour, texture and window division are matched to the home as a single whole.
Secure where reachable
Windows and doors within easy reach get appropriate attention to locks and hardware.

Practical matters
Rules and schemes that apply to your address
The municipality and RVO always remain the authority. Below is what matters for a homeowner in Ridderkerk, and where to check the current conditions.
Permits and appearance in Ridderkerk
Whether replacing window frames needs consent depends on the address, whether the frame faces a public road, how much the façade changes, and any listed status. The municipality of Ridderkerk refers homeowners to the permit check in the Omgevingsloket. If in doubt, you can submit a concept request in advance; the municipality then also checks appearance.
We assess what changes technically during the survey, but the municipality decides whether a permit is required. For that reason we make no general assurance before the address and the plan have been checked.
Insulating glazing may qualify for the national ISDE grant, subject to conditions. RVO sets the current requirements and amounts. Ridderkerk also offers a sustainability loan that can cover glazing insulation. Conditions and budget can change, so always check the municipal page first.
Soleca supplies the product and insulation data an application may require, but cannot guarantee that a grant will be awarded. A separate municipal DIY voucher is intended for insulation you fit yourself, such as floor, roof or internal wall insulation. That scheme does not apply to our frame installation.
We had window frames installed by Soleca. We had pleasant contact with Mathis and then had the pleasure of welcoming Willem and Willem to our home for the installation. I would definitely recommend the guys!

Frequently asked questions
Your home always leads the decision. Question not covered? Call 085 080 5117.
Does Soleca fit uPVC window frames throughout Ridderkerk?
Yes. Soleca works from Hoogvliet and fits uPVC window frames throughout Ridderkerk, including Bolnes, Slikkerveer, Drievliet, Het Zand, Rijsoord and Oostendam. During the appointment we come to your home to assess the situation and measure the openings.
Which window frames suit a home in Drievliet or Bolnes?
That depends on the existing façade, the window division and how the rooms are used. In Drievliet we often see repeating window divisions in residential courts. In Bolnes and Slikkerveer we look more closely at how the old frame meets the brickwork. Colour, profile and glazing are matched to each home.
Do I need a permit for new window frames in Ridderkerk?
This is not the same for every address. Whether the frame faces a public road, how far the façade changes and any listed status can all play a part. Check your plan in the Omgevingsloket, or submit a concept request to the municipality of Ridderkerk if you are unsure. Soleca helps with the technical information, but the municipality makes the decision.
Can I use Ridderkerk’s sustainability loan for new frames?
The municipal sustainability loan lists glazing insulation as a possible measure. Whether your plan qualifies depends on the current conditions and the available budget. Check that on the municipal page. Insulating glazing may also qualify for the national ISDE grant, subject to conditions; RVO remains the authority. Soleca supplies the product data an application may require.
Who is responsible for the frames in an apartment?
That differs by owners’ association. In Ridderkerk, especially in the riverside neighbourhoods with more apartments, we establish before quoting whether the frames belong to your private part or to the common parts. Without that clarity we will not produce a quotation you later cannot use.
How does replacing window frames in Ridderkerk work?
The process starts with advice on site, with no obligation. Once you agree, the final survey follows and we measure every opening precisely. The frames are then made to size and fitted by Soleca's own installers. The schedule and the expected installation time are set out clearly in the quotation beforehand.
