Interior painting
Walls, ceilings, stairwells. We work one room at a time, so you can stay in your home while we’re working.
What every quote includes
We don’t list extras one by one. To us, the following simply belong to a clean paint job, so they never show up on the invoice as an add-on.
- Moving furniture together and covering it completely
- Laying fleece on the floors, not just plastic sheeting
- Taking off sockets and switches and putting them back
- Filling and sanding cracks and plug holes
- Primer on absorbent or stained surfaces
- Two coats of opaque interior paint
- Final cleaning and a walkthrough together
What we work with
We use low-emission, solvent-free paints. That’s why you can stay in your home while we work, even with small children.
- Living areas: matt emulsion paint, wet scrub class 2
- Hallway and stairwell: scrub-resistant latex paint
- Bathroom and kitchen: moisture-regulating silicate paint
- Basement: mineral paint, breathable
- Color: to NCS or RAL, we bring samples
If a surface won’t take a clean coat of paint, we tell you beforehand and not afterwards.

Questions about interior painting
Do I have to move the furniture out myself?
No. We move everything into the middle of the room and cover it carefully. Just put away personal things and electronics yourself, please.
Can I stay in the apartment while you work?
Yes. We work one room at a time and use low-emission, solvent-free paints.
How long do I need to air the place out?
With our paints, opening the windows wide for a few minutes in the evening is enough. After about four hours you can’t smell anything.
Isn’t one coat enough?
Sometimes, if it’s the same color on a good surface. We’ll tell you beforehand and charge you less.
What about dark walls or smoke marks?
Those need a stain-blocking primer, otherwise they bleed through. It’s included in the quote and costs between €200 and €500 extra, depending on the area.
Can I claim the costs on my taxes?
Private customers can deduct the labor costs for tradesman services. We list them separately on the invoice.
