About us

From Oslo to Helsinki

Parveketeam is Balkongteam in Finland. We have built balconies on Oslo’s old apartment buildings since 1998 – and now we are starting in Finland.

Our story

Balkongteam was founded in Oslo in 1998 by Fredrik Granberg and Ola Rask. Before that, they had built balconies in Sweden for almost ten years.

Since then we have sold and built 8,568 balconies, nearly all on old apartment buildings in central Oslo. Many of us have been on the team since 2001, and together we have more than 50 years of experience.

We take care of the whole project: site visit, measuring, drawings, production, installation, clean-up and handover.

Now in Finland – for the same kind of buildings

Helsinki’s old stone apartment buildings are close relatives of Oslo’s bygårder: thick walls, tall windows, narrow streets and courtyards – and often not a single balcony.

Our method was developed for exactly these buildings. The steel balcony arrives in small parts and is assembled on site from scaffolding, so no crane is needed, even on narrow streets.

We are new to Finland, but the way we work and our experience are the same. We are starting in Helsinki.

What we promise

Craftsmanship
Steel balconies planned and assembled with care, on the old building’s terms.
Reliability
We keep to agreed schedules and do what we say we will.
Clear communication
Throughout the project we tell you what is happening and when.
Easy to reach
We are easy to get hold of after handover, too.

Contact us – book a free site visit

Tell us the building’s address and we’ll come and see which balconies suit it. The visit is free and doesn’t commit the housing company to anything.

You can book a visit as a resident, board member or property manager.
