Your local house painter in Den Bosch

Painting homes in a historic city

Den Bosch is a city of contrasts: 17th-century canal houses around the Markt and Vughterstraat, 1930s family homes in Het Zand and De Muntel, and contemporary apartments in Paleiskwartier. Each type of property asks for a different approach, and as a Den Bosch painter we know them all.

Many houses in the inner city are listed monuments. Repainting them may require permission from the municipality for colour changes, and always requires paint systems that let the historic timber breathe. We have experience with these rules and with the epoxy repair systems approved for heritage buildings.

Kivits Vastgoedonderhoud is a registered Dutch painting and property maintenance company (KVK 94153965) based in 's-Hertogenbosch. Founder Leroy Kivits and his team communicate comfortably in English, so expats and international homeowners get the same clear advice, written quote and 5-year warranty as our Dutch clients.

Wood rot: the most common problem we see in Den Bosch

The combination of older timber window frames, a damp climate and a few years of missed maintenance is the classic recipe for wood rot. Soft spots at the bottom of window frames, cracked paint, dark discolouration and crumbling putty are the early warning signs.

Caught early, wood rot can almost always be repaired rather than replaced. Our wood rot repair service uses professional two-component epoxy systems that bond with sound timber, are then sanded, primed and painted — and last 10 to 25 years. We inspect free of charge and tell you honestly whether repair or replacement is the smarter choice.

Frequently asked questions

Are you based in Den Bosch?

Yes. Kivits Vastgoedonderhoud is registered and based in 's-Hertogenbosch and works daily in the city and surrounding villages such as Rosmalen, Vught and Sint-Michielsgestel.

Can you paint a listed (monument) house in the city centre?

Yes. We are familiar with the municipal heritage requirements in Den Bosch and use breathable paint systems and heritage-approved epoxy repair products.

How quickly can you come and look at my house?

Usually within a few working days. The inspection is free, and you receive a written quote within 48 hours afterwards.

Do you provide quotes and invoices in English?

Yes, on request. Many of our expat clients need English paperwork for landlords, employers or relocation services — no problem.

What does it cost to paint my window frames?

That depends on the number of frames, their condition and whether any wood rot needs repairing first. We only quote after a free on-site inspection, so the price you receive is accurate and complete.
