Delivery by contractor
When will the painting work start?
Start of the interior painting work: house completely empty and ready
At De Schilder Plus, we work according to a strict turnkey painting concept: we finish the job, you unpack the moving boxes right away. To guarantee our quality and schedule, we only start the new construction interior painting once all other work has been fully completed.
Conditions for a smooth start Before we start, the following parts must be ready:
- Contractor – all construction work completed
Tiler – walls and floors tiled and grouted
- Kitchen supplier – kitchen installed and finished
- Floor layer – floor finishing and skirting boards completely finished
In addition, an important requirement applies:
The house or apartment must be completely empty. No furniture, boxes, or loose materials are present, so we can work without obstacles and guarantee the best possible end result.
Why this method?
- Prevents damage to fresh paintwork by other professionals
- Ensures efficient and fast execution
- Offers you a smooth, even and durable end result
With this approach, we ensure your home is ready for immediate delivery and move-in. This way, you can move in worry-free and enjoy a perfectly finished home.

Why is wallpaper-ready not painter-ready?
Wallpaper-ready is not ready for painting – this is how De Schilder Plus ensures a perfect result
Many new-build home buyers think that "wallpaper-ready" automatically means the walls are ready for immediate painting. Unfortunately, that's not the case.
When delivering the wallpaper-ready surface, the contractor usually only fills the seams between the plaster or sand-lime brick blocks. This surface is perfectly suitable for wallpapering – after light sanding – but insufficient for a smooth paint finish.
Why thin plastering is necessary For a smooth and even finish, at De Schilder Plus we always finish the walls completely with a thin layer of plaster (0 to 3 mm). This evens out minor imperfections and ensures:
- A perfectly smooth and tight surface
- Better adhesion of the paint
- A durable and professional finish
You can see and feel the difference Without thin-set plaster, underlying seams, scratches, and the structure of the blocks will remain visible, even after multiple coats of paint. By choosing our thin-set plaster approach, your home will have the high-quality look that befits professional interior painting.
At De Schilder Plus we only deliver painting work that we are proud of – and that starts with a perfect surface.

Financial & Warranty
Is there 9% or 21% VAT on new construction painting work?
21% VAT on new construction interior painting – important to know
When planning painting work for your new home, it's important to consider VAT regulations. In the Netherlands, new construction interior painting is subject to 21% VAT. This contrasts with maintenance painting work on existing homes, where you can often benefit from the lower 9% VAT rate.
The difference is because new construction is considered a completely new build, with paintwork being part of the finishing and furnishing. Only homes older than two years can qualify for the reduced 9% rate for maintenance and renovation work.
Why this is important for your new construction project
If you've just purchased a new-build home—for example, in projects like Entrada Geldrop, Waterrijk Maarheeze, Waterbrink, or other new construction sites in the Eindhoven region—you'll want a realistic estimate of the costs upfront. At De Schilder Plus, we always provide a transparent quote, including the correct VAT rate. This way, you'll never encounter any surprises.
The benefits of choosing De Schilder Plus
- Specialized in new construction interior painting
- Always a clear price quote including the correct VAT percentage
Turnkey delivery: We're ready? You can unpack the moving boxes right away.
- Choice of various color and finishing packages
- Possibility to reserve your place in the agenda in advance

What warranty can I expect?
Guarantee on interior painting – This is what you can expect from De Schilder Plus
When you choose De Schilder Plus, you're choosing craftsmanship, high-quality materials, and a flawless finish that will last for years. We fully stand behind our work and therefore offer a guarantee on interior painting work that meets the applicable quality standards in the painting industry.

- Colour fastness and durable protection with normal use
- Correct layer build-up and optimal adhesion, thanks to our turnkey painting method

Cracks in underlying layers—for example, in plaster or drywall—are not covered by our warranty.

What quality is the top coat?
For your new-build apartment or house, Schilder.plus offers a complete package of professional painting and plastering services. Our basic services ensure a technically sound and perfectly finished surface, so your home is delivered in perfect condition.
Our Basic Services include:
• Apply thin plaster to all interior walls (Note: "Wallpaper-ready" delivered by the contractor is not ready for painting!)
• Pre-gluing (priming) all interior walls and ceilings
• Fill open seams, followed by applying:
◦ 1x mid-coat
◦ 1x top coat
Why thin plaster is necessary for new construction
A contractor's standard wallpaper-ready finish doesn't meet the requirements for durable and even paintwork. The walls often have texture variations, seams, and irregularities that remain visible after the wall paint is applied. At Schilder.plus, we ensure the surface is optimally prepared first. That's why we always apply a thin-set plaster before painting. This extra step ensures:
• ✅ A tight, smooth and even end result
• ✅ Improved paint adhesion
• ✅ No visible seams or imperfections
• ✅ Technically responsible layer structure for a longer lifespan
🎯 No discussion, just certainty At Schilder.plus, we avoid the usual debate about "what's wallpaper-ready and what's paint-ready?" by taking care of all the surface preparation ourselves. Our approach delivers a high-quality end result that meets the highest technical and aesthetic standards.

What does a filler/thin plaster entail?
Thin plaster 0–3 mm: the perfect base for smooth painting
At De Schilder Plus, we know that beautiful paintwork starts with a perfect substrate. That's why we always finish your new construction walls with a thin-set plaster layer of 0-3 mm.
What does a thin plaster layer do?
This thin layer of plaster fills internal holes, minor scratches, and imperfections. This creates a smooth, even surface ideal for a high-quality paint finish. Without this step, imperfections would remain visible, even after multiple coats of paint.
Why choose thin plaster?
Smooth surface – no visible seams or scratches
Better paint adhesion – for a long-lasting result
Tighter final look – your walls look like they came out of the showroom
With our expertise and the use of quality products like Knauf and Rigips, we ensure your walls are ready for painting. The difference is clearly visible – and tangible.
