Roof Gravel Blowing: how it Works in Practice

At P. van der Kooij Groep, we have years of experience in blowing roof gravel. With specialized equipment, we transport gravel quickly and efficiently to roofs, eliminating the need for heavy cranes or manual hauling. This saves time, reduces costs, and ensures a safe working method.

From Depot to Roof: The Process

The gravel we use originates from our own depot in Schiedam. Here, it is washed and carefully selected before being transported to the roof. Clean gravel is essential to extend the roof’s lifespan and guarantee proper water drainage.

Once everything is prepared, the gravel is moved to the roof using powerful blowing installations and evenly distributed. This provides the roof with a durable ballast layer that offers protection against wind and weather.
