Why people use Klickie
A paint job looks simple but the difference between a good painter and a mediocre one is very clear when you look at the result. Poor masking, skipped priming, uneven coverage, drips on the skirting - these are all signs of someone who rushed the prep work. Klickie has personally vetted painters across Amsterdam. We know who takes the time to do the prep properly, who has a clean and consistent finish, which painters work efficiently on full apartments, and who to call if you want wallpaper hung perfectly. When you message us, tell us what you want painted, the size of the project, your timeline, and any specific requirements. We match you within 48 hours with a painter who is genuinely good at that kind of work.
Prep determines the finish
The quality of a paint job is decided before the first coat goes on. Proper filling, sanding, priming, and masking are what separate a lasting finish from one that chips and peels within a year.
Speed and quality rarely go together
The cheapest painter usually rushes the job. Rushing means skipped prep, thin coverage, and messy edges. The right painter takes the time to do it properly - and the result lasts.
Colour advice matters too
Choosing paint colours is harder than it looks. An experienced painter can advise on finishes, undertones, and how the colour will read in your specific light. That guidance is part of a good service.
Got questions? Just ask
Klickie matches you with a painter by learning the scope of your job and the kind of finish you want through a quick WhatsApp conversation. Tell us if you need interior walls and ceilings, exterior facades, wood trim, window frames, doors, wallpaper hanging or removal, lacquering, decorative finishes, ceiling roses and cornicing, or full refurbishment painting - plus your neighbourhood in Amsterdam, the size of the space, and your budget. Our team has personally vetted painters across Centrum, Oost, Noord, West, Zuid, and De Pijp, so we know who excels at clean cutting-in, who is best for tricky old plaster in canal houses, who is fast for whole-apartment turnarounds, and who specialises in heritage and decorative finishes. Based on what you tell us, we recommend one painter whose pace and finish fit. You arrange directly - no platform fees.
Klickie is completely free for you, and it always will be. You will never be charged a fee, subscription, or commission for using the service. When we match you with a painter, you arrange directly with them and pay their normal day rate or quoted price. Klickie does not add any markup, booking fee, or platform charge. Our business model is built around partnerships with painters who value receiving well-matched clients. This means you get genuinely unbiased recommendations, because our income does not depend on which painter we recommend to you. We believe a recommendation service only works when the person receiving the recommendation can trust it completely. Keeping it free for clients is how we maintain that trust. Whether you need one room or a whole house, the matching process costs you nothing.
Most painters on our network can supply paint and materials, and many will recommend specific brands and finishes - Sikkens, Histor, Wijzonol, Farrow & Ball, Painting the Past, and Flexa are common - based on the substrate and the look you want. Painters typically pass on materials at trade prices, which is often cheaper than buying yourself, and they will know exactly how much paint and primer the job actually needs. If you prefer to supply specific paint - for example you want a particular boutique colour, you have leftover paint, or you want to use eco-only brands - just say so and we will match you with a painter who is fine with client-supplied materials. Either way, the painter will tell you upfront what is included in the quote and what is extra.
Klickie's painter network in Amsterdam covers everything from quick room refreshes to full heritage restoration: interior walls, ceilings, trim, doors, radiators, kitchen cabinets and built-ins, exterior facades and stucco, wood and metal exteriors, window frames and shutters, wallpaper hanging (paste-the-wall, traditional, mural, grass cloth), wallpaper removal and plaster repair, decorative finishes (Venetian plaster, limewash, marmorino, lime paint), lacquering on doors and floors, and full pre-tenancy or post-renovation paint-outs. We also know which painters work confidently with the tricky plaster found in old Amsterdam canal houses, which are best for newer builds, who handles fragile heritage details, and who is comfortable with ladders for high facades.
We give you one recommendation because that is how a trusted friend would help you. When you ask someone you trust for a painter, they do not send you a spreadsheet with ten options sorted by rating. They give you one name and tell you why that person is right for you. That personal conviction is what makes the recommendation valuable. Lists create decision fatigue. You end up comparing day rates, second-guessing yourself, and often choosing based on price alone rather than finish quality. Klickie removes that friction entirely. We know the painters personally, we understand what you need from our conversation, and we match the two. If the recommendation does not feel right for any reason, just tell us and we will find someone else. No pressure, no awkwardness, no extra cost.
