Wall with minor imperfections or holes: This package is suitable for walls with minor imperfections or holes that require extra sanding and filling work. This results in a neater finish than the basic package.

Yes, we carefully finish outlets, switches, and connection points. These are temporarily removed at no cost and neatly reinstalled afterwards. This way, they fit perfectly with the wall finish.

No, we work completely seamlessly. After applying Renovlies we caulk all seams. We then latex the walls. The result is comparable to plastering. Micro-cracks that may form in the wall remain behind the Renovlies. We secure all walls. Renovlies in the corners will never come loose. Guaranteed.

No, our quotes include travel costs. For larger projects outside our working area of 80 km around Alphen aan den Rijn, we offer to stay nearby. This way we can put in the hours without long drives and without unnecessary travel costs.

We are affiliated with De Betere Schilder, a quality mark that stands for quality and reliability in the painting industry. This means we meet strict requirements in the areas of craftsmanship, customer satisfaction and business operations. So you can count on painting work and service of a high standard, and on a pleasant experience when improving your home.

We fill them in with the roller when we apply latex. For an additional charge, we can skim the holes smooth. At our Projects you can see attics we have finished.

Yes, of course. Supply the correct size and make sure to account for extra bleed. The website or shop where you order the wallpaper can advise you on this. The wallpaper must be on site at the start of the project. Please supply "non-woven wallpaper" quality, along with the adhesive recommended by the supplier. A rate for hanging photo wallpaper will be included in your quote.

Applying Renovlies yourself is possible, but it takes experience and precision. For a truly smooth and even result, we recommend professional installation. This way you avoid disappointment and extra costs.

You are of course welcome in our showroom. Many people find it nice to have met each other in person before placing an order. We have a number of walls finished with plaster, Renovlies and various colours of latex, and we have colour samples available of the standard colours white and the Sigma colour collection.

Our current opening hours can be found on the contact page.

Yes, you can wallpaper over Renovlies, as long as the Renovlies has first been given a coat of latex. That latex coat seals the fleece. The wallpaper paste won't soak into it, and the wallpaper and Renovlies bond well together.

Wallpapering over Renovlies that hasn't been latexed yet

Bare Renovlies absorbs wallpaper paste. The paste then dries too quickly and the wallpaper comes loose, often starting at the seams. So always have bare Renovlies latexed or primed first. If you're not sure whether there's already latex on it, we can tell straight away during an inspection. If you have your Renovlies wallpapered by us, we apply the latex immediately after hanging, so you can wallpaper over it later without any pre-treatment.

Removing the wallpaper later

If you ever want to remove the wallpaper, the latex coat protects the Renovlies underneath. How easily the wallpaper comes off depends on the type of wallpaper. That's why the price for removal varies from situation to situation.

Of course this is possible, just make sure the Renovlies wallpaper has been coated with a latex layer before you start wallpapering.

Yes, renovlies can also go on the ceiling. We apply it the same way as on the walls and then paint it with latex in the colour you choose. The finish runs from wall to ceiling in one go, without an edge where one job stops and the other begins.

When renovlies on the ceiling makes sense

A ceiling with small irregularities, hairline cracks or an old, patchy layer of paint looks calm again with renovlies. In a new-build home the lining absorbs the shrinkage cracks that appear in the first few years, just like on the walls. If you are having the walls done anyway, adding the ceiling is often the logical step: one team, one schedule and the same latex, so no colour difference in the corner.

V-joints and rough ceilings: plasterer first

Many new-build ceilings are handed over with white spray finish, or not finished at all, and that is where you see the V-joints between the concrete slabs. Filling those joints is a job for a plasterer, and we would rather tell you that up front than afterwards. Once the ceiling has been plastered, we apply the primer and latex in a colour that matches your walls. You can read how that works under can you also paint my ceilings with latex.

Attics with brown or green ceiling boards

The brown or green boards you find in many attics usually get two coats of super latex from us. The small staple holes are filled with the roller as we go. If you want them completely smooth, we fill them for an extra charge. We discuss that when we come to measure.

Planning a stretch ceiling?

Then we usually finish the walls first and the stretch ceiling goes in afterwards. That way we can work neatly right up to the ceiling without the risk of damaging anything.

Not sure what your ceiling needs? We take a look for free during the inspection, together with the walls. Request a free quote and mention the ceiling, so it is included in the price straight away.

No, Renovlies should never be applied over old wallpaper. Wallpaper must always be removed first to prevent the moisture in the adhesive from causing it to come loose and to avoid uneven surfaces.

Yes! The wall does need to be plastered first, though. We can take care of that for you. After plastering, we apply Renovlies and latex. The result is a super smooth, flat wall with the look of plasterwork.

Yes, Renovlies is very suitable for concrete walls. However, proper preparation is required, such as sanding, leveling, and priming / applying a primer coat. This ensures that the Renovlies adheres optimally and results in a smooth finish without any visible texture.

Yes, Renovlies is excellent for use on plasterboard. The seams are first reinforced with mesh tape and levelled to create a completely smooth surface. Of course, we will first discuss the possibilities.

Yes, Renovlies is removable. In practice, customers usually choose to repaint it. Removal is possible, but requires skilled work to prevent damage to the substrate.

Yes, Renovlies is excellent for use in bedrooms. It provides a calm, sleek appearance and is breathable. This keeps the indoor climate pleasant and creates a comfortable living environment.

Yes, Renovlies can effectively bridge small hairline cracks and stress cracks. The strong fiber structure keeps these invisible after finishing, contributing to a long-lasting smooth result.

Renovlies is stronger than regular wallpaper and reasonably impact-resistant. In high-traffic areas, we recommend using extra wear-resistant paint for additional protection.

Absolutely. If you have a few neighbours (fewer than 10), you can take advantage of the Neighbour Discount programme. One of you is often the driving force. In practice, that means nothing more than pointing your neighbours to our quote by sharing it in a WhatsApp or Facebook group. Once the neighbours actually place an order, everyone receives a Neighbour Discount on Renovlies and latex, depending on the number of neighbours who join.

If you want to make an appointment on behalf of the whole neighbourhood, we can put together a collective offer with a special price from 12 participating neighbours. For that, we need (if you and your neighbours are on board) a list with names, email addresses, salutations, addresses and the expected completion date. We will send everyone a separate quote with the special price, and it applies as soon as the minimum number of neighbours has signed. Any agreements about extras, colours and the like are made with each person individually. So you are not responsible for your neighbours. Interested? We would love to hear from you.

Yes. We apply primer and latex paint, resulting in a beautifully smooth ceiling in the colour of your choice. We often do this when ceilings have been plastered, because people want the v-joints in the ceiling to be filled and smoothed out. Ceilings are usually finished with white spray plaster, or they are left completely unfinished. In both cases, a plasterer can skim the ceilings smooth, after which we finish them in the desired colour.

Yes, for a small additional cost we can apply removable latex, for example in the kitchen. Some people also choose to have their entire home done in removable latex. You can of course also decide to include traffic areas like the hallway.

Yes, we're happy to advise on colour choices and paint types. That way, the wall finish ties in perfectly with your interior and living style.

No. Old wallpaper must be removed first, for the best result.
If we apply Renovlies in your home and you also want photo wallpaper or printed wallpaper, we will strip those walls bare. We can pre-treat them and then apply the wallpaper you supply directly.

Yes. Just share your colour choice with the manufacturer name and colour number, and we'll make sure the colour is mixed. If you're a customer with us, we'll send you a Sigma colour advice brochure with a wide range of colours and colour swatches. That way you can take your time picking the right colours for your accent walls. You can even upload a photo and see your wall in the chosen colour (instructions are included).
We can match 99% of all colours. Share your preferences in good time and we'll check with the paint desk. You can also always supply paint from your own supplier, in which case we'll deduct an amount from the surcharge for an extra coat.

In most cases, we advise finishing the walls first and then installing the stretch ceiling. This way, we can finish the walls neatly right up to the ceiling without any risk of damage.

People sometimes ask whether they need to turn on construction heating before we arrive. That's not necessary: as long as the walls are visually dry (no water sitting on the windowsill), we can get straight to work. Renovlies and latex are vapour-permeable, so the moisture will work its way out of your walls over time.
It is possible that the property is too damp for the plaster we apply to dry in time, and it does need to be dry before we can continue. In that case, we can arrange one or more dryers for you.

Complete the protocol before we start, or begin it at the same time we do. If you start the protocol after we have finished, there is a risk of cracks.

Yes, old wallpaper must always be removed before Renovlies is applied. Only on a clean, flat surface can we guarantee a neat end result without any peeling parts.

When installed by a professional, Renovlies is virtually indistinguishable from smooth plasterwork. After preparing the walls, such as machine sanding, a smooth, even surface is created. Renovlies is then applied to the wall with no visible seams. We back this up with our seamless guarantee.

Yes, Renovlies is always finished with (high-quality) wall paint, such as Sigma paint. This provides protection, color, and a perfect end result that stays beautiful for a long time.

Yes and no. When the floor is leveled first, it may be covered before the wall finishing begins. This prevents contamination or damage. If, for example, paint drops get on it, these can easily be removed with a putty knife.

Being present is not required. Many customers give us access and simply go about their day. We keep you updated along the way and deliver everything neat and tidy.

It is not necessary to completely empty the home, but we do advise moving furniture away from the walls. Small pieces of furniture can be covered. This allows us to work safely and efficiently without the risk of damage.

Loft boards tend to shrink and expand. If we were to apply Renovlies to these boards, the Renovlies would crack. That is why we treat loft boards with 2 coats of super latex or primer and latex. In our Projects you can view a number of examples of previously completed work.

Absolutely, but we are not plasterers. We smooth walls that have a granol finish, for example during a renovation. For complete homes that need plastering, you are better off hiring a professional plasterer. The same goes for filling V-joints: that is really the plasterer's trade. Because Renovlies is an affordable alternative to plastering, we have specialised in that. On top of that, micro-cracks in new-build walls stay hidden behind the Renovlies, whereas with plastering you would see them. What we often do is apply a primer and latex to a plastered ceiling. Feel free to ask about the possibilities.

No. We do work together with a company from Leiderdorp. They have a showroom where you can view all possible floors and make appointments for your home.

Yes. Ask about the possibilities.

No. We do not have a webshop or individual sales. The Renovlies we purchase are used by our teams for all projects.

We specialise in wallpapering complete homes or housing projects. For a single wall or room, we recommend finding a local handyman service. They are better set up for that.

We have everything in stock, so we don't need to measure up in advance like a tile supplier would. We stay in touch about the completion date and measure everything on day 1 of the job.
To assess the quality of your walls, we've created a flyer called "wallpaper ready". You can request it through our site, even if you haven't requested a quote yet. The flyer explains what to look for when assessing your walls, and how to do it.

Of course.

No. We work around the radiators; you'll barely notice anything.

Yes, we provide a guarantee on our work and materials: the coverage guarantee and the seamless guarantee. This gives you assurance about the quality and durability of the end result.

Yes, we have a street and Neighbour Discount programme. Share your quote in the neighbourhood app or your Facebook group and have your neighbours mention your name when they request a quote. We bring all the neighbours together in a neighbour group.

Once the neighbours actually place an order, everyone in the group receives the same Neighbour Discount: 3.5% for 2 or 3 homes, 5% for 4 or 5 homes, and 10% from 6 homes onwards. Are you the one bringing the neighbours together? Then as the initiator you also receive an initiator bonus of €100 for 2 to 3 participants and €250 for 4 or more. We award this bonus as soon as the neighbours have placed their order. The Neighbour Discount and the initiator bonus are settled on the final invoice.

You can find more information on the page about the Neighbour Discount.

Experience shows that Renovlies is vapour-permeable, and moisture will disappear from your home over time. If it is necessary to place construction dryers, for example to dry a plaster layer, we will advise you on that.

Always.

If you have underfloor heating, you are usually advised to follow a start-up protocol. This means that the water temperature of the underfloor heating is increased by 5 degrees per day up to 40 degrees, and then cooled back down by 5 degrees per day to 20 degrees. It is no problem if you carry out the start-up protocol while we are working. It is not a good idea to run it after we have finished: the temperature fluctuations cause the walls to move, which can lead to unnecessary cracks.
Always ask your contractor for advice on this. Your home may require a different start-up protocol than the standard one.

Yes, we work with experienced, dedicated teams. This allows us to guarantee consistent quality and gives you the assurance that your project is in professional hands.

We start with inspection, repair, sanding and priming. Any damage is repaired. We can also plaster walls if necessary. We will of course discuss the options. This way we create a perfect base for Renovlies.

Our schedule fills up approximately 2 to 3 months before the work starts, depending on the time of year. Full means we plan the maximum number of projects our teams can handle. We add you to our schedule based on the expected completion date. As that date gets closer and more precise, we adjust your slot accordingly. This means we usually start shortly after completion.
Have you unexpectedly bought a home with a short completion deadline? Get in touch with us. Completions are sometimes rescheduled, which can free up space in the planning at short notice.

Allow around 5 working days for a home of 200 m². If extra preparation is needed, or you have additional wishes regarding colour, extra ceilings or lacquer work, it will take longer. With every order confirmation we include a document that lets you estimate how long we will be working, so you can plan any follow-up activities accordingly. Thanks to our efficient way of working, the total lead time is often shorter than with traditional plastering.

Renovlies is extremely durable and, with proper maintenance, can last for decades. It remains stable, tear-resistant, and can be repainted multiple times without any loss of quality.

Usually you can fully use the space again within one to two days after completion. By then the wall paint will have had enough time to dry.

Yes, through our Neighbour Discount. Share your quote on Facebook or in the neighbourhood app, or ask us for flyers you can hand out at a neighbourhood meeting. If your future neighbours mention your name, we'll add all sign-ups together into a neighbour group.

Once the neighbours actually place an order, everyone in the group receives the same Neighbour Discount percentage. If you're the one who brings the neighbours together, you'll also receive a referral fee as the initiator. We'll deduct both from the final invoice.

Renovlies meets current fire safety standards and is suitable for use in homes. In combination with professional paint, a safe wall finish is achieved.

Yes, Renovlies can be painted over multiple times without any loss of quality. Thanks to its smooth surface, the paint adheres beautifully and the wall retains its clean, sleek appearance. This makes Renovlies highly suitable for future colour changes.

Renovlies is suitable for slightly damp rooms such as toilets and utility rooms, provided it is finished with a suitable mould-resistant paint or Sigma Pearl Clean washable latex. In bathrooms or shower rooms, we usually recommend specialist wall finishes. Good ventilation always remains important for a lasting result.

Yes, provided the surface is properly prepared. We always inspect the walls and carry out any necessary repairs or pre-treatment. This way, we guarantee a neat and durable end result.

Yes, Renovlies is very suitable for high-traffic areas such as hallways and stairwells. It is strong, wear-resistant and highly durable against daily use, keeping walls looking great for longer

Yes, Renovlies is ideal for newly built homes. Walls in new homes are still settling, which can cause small (shrinkage) cracks to appear. Renovlies absorbs these movements and prevents cracks from becoming visible in the finish.

Yes, Renovlies is widely used in offices due to its sleek appearance and durability. It provides a professional and presentable look.

Yes, Renovlies is suitable for rental properties, provided you have the landlord's permission. It can be neatly finished and removed if necessary, making it a tidy solution for long-term occupancy.

Technically speaking, Renovlies is a type of wallpaper, but after painting the result resembles smooth plasterwork. It combines the advantages of wallpaper with the appearance of a plastered wall.

Once we've sent you a quote, you'll know exactly where you stand. If you agree with the quote, we'll ask you to sign the order online. After that, we'll add you to our planning and send a confirmation with key points and questions. Before the work starts, we'll align exactly what you want in terms of colours and any extras.
On the first day, we measure everything precisely with a laser. Based on the actual square metres and your additional wishes, we draw up a budget, which we'll ask you to approve. Then we can get started.
Because we don't need to purchase custom materials, a separate measuring day isn't necessary. The first time we meet in person is usually at the start of the project.
We reserve a period during which we'll be working at your place. It's possible that we won't start on day 1 but on day 3. We always make sure we're finished by the last day.

Our walls are already wallpaper-ready. They don't need to be sanded anymore, right? Often they do. If you were to apply Renovlies directly over a wallpaper-ready wall, you would see all the imperfections. So why not have it done properly from the start? You'll probably be looking at your walls for a long time. If we apply without any preparation, everything underneath will show: every bump and every hole will stand out. The minimum is sanding and filling. If a wall is made up of calcium silicate blocks, which are often unevenly stacked, plastering is a must.

Any cracks will remain hidden behind the Renovlies.

We work within an 80 km radius of Alphen aan den Rijn, for both private individuals and businesses, taking on projects both small and large. If you live further away, we only take on larger projects of 250 m² or more. Feel free to give us a call to discuss your options.

Painting is the professional application of wall paint to walls or ceilings using a roller or spray technique. The goal is a smooth, even and streak-free finish. Good painting requires proper preparation, high-quality paint and craftsmanship, so the walls stay looking great for years to come.

Renovlies costs €19.50 to €23.45 per m² in a new-build home and €24.50 to €28.45 per m² in an existing home, including VAT and latex. We work from 80 m² onwards. You can find all packages and a calculation example on our pricing page.

Our seamless guarantee means that after completion, no visible seams or overlaps can be seen. The wall forms one smooth, uniform surface, comparable to high-quality plastering.

For us, wallpaper-ready means that no dip or bump is visible when using a raking light lamp.

Brown or green loft panels can usually be finished with 2 coats of superlatex. Check out examples in Projects: there you can see a number of lofts we have transformed beautifully. For an additional charge, we can fill the holes smooth with filler. We will discuss this during the measuring appointment.

Minor damage can easily be repaired. We provide clear maintenance instructions and for more significant issues we offer appropriate service and aftercare.

Crooked or uneven walls are levelled out beforehand. This allows us to still achieve a neat end result, even in older homes. And as a side note: In the construction industry, there is an unwritten rule: There is not a single wall that is perfectly straight.

Latex is a water-based wall paint used for finishing walls and ceilings. It is also known as "emulsion". Latex gives walls a smooth, durable and easy-to-maintain finish. Good latex paint is breathable, colourfast and simple to clean, making it ideal for living spaces.

Plastering is the application of a thin layer of plaster to make walls smooth and even again. It fills in small imperfections, bumps, and dips. This layer forms an ideal base for Renovlies or paintwork and ensures a clean, professional finish.

Primer is a special base coat that ensures good adhesion between the substrate and the finishing layer. It prevents paint from being absorbed and ensures even coverage. Primer is always applied to clean, dry and dust-free surfaces for a durable result.

Raking light is light from the sun or a lamp that shines along your wall. Imperfections are especially noticeable in raking light. It is therefore important that walls are properly prepared, so they are nice and even and you won't see any imperfections even in raking light.

Renovlies is used to give walls in new-build and existing homes a smooth, modern finish. It also prevents visible (shrinkage) cracks and imperfections, and provides a perfect base for paintwork. This creates a luxurious appearance. And with Renovlies.net, it is certainly comparable to high-quality plastering.

The difference is that we use 150 grams, as it is more flexible and easier to work with. With 200 grams, it is less easy to process, it creases more quickly and seams become visible sooner.

Renovlies is made from cellulose, reinforced with polyester fibres. Fibreglass wallpaper is made from sand. Both are impact-resistant, but Renovlies holds up even better against impacts. Renovlies always has a smooth finish, while fibreglass wallpaper is also available in various textures, such as diamond or grid patterns.

Preferably hang the wallpaper first, then do the rest. A different order is possible in consultation. If you have a floor laid first, it will need to be covered with a protective sheet. You can lay that yourself before we arrive, or you can ask us to do it. We can usually work alongside a bathroom installer without any issues. We prefer not to have other companies or handymen around while we are working. This comes down to the quality of our work and the risks that arise when multiple parties are working at the same time.

Payment consists of a deposit and a final payment, based on invoice.

We prepare the advance payment invoice based on your quote after the measurement visit. We ask you to pay it within 2 working days of receiving the digital quote. The deposit amount depends in principle on the contract sum:

• Contract sum up to and including € 2,500: € 750 deposit at the start of the work.
• Contract sum € 2,500 up to and including € 5,000: € 1,500 deposit at the start of the work.
• Contract sum € 5,000 up to and including € 7,500: € 2,250 deposit at the start of the work.
• Contract sum € 7,500 up to and including € 10,000: € 3,000 deposit at the start of the work.
• Contract sum above € 10,000: a maximum of 25% of the contract sum, determined at the time of measurement.

This allows you to see whether the wall is ready for wallpapering; bumps and dips will not be visible.

9% for renovation of properties aged 2 years and older, or 21% for new construction or properties 2 years old and younger.

We work with Renovlies of 150 grams. This quality offers an excellent balance between strength, flexibility, and smoothness. This results in a durable finish with a high-quality appearance.

We use Glidden Tex Mat, which is manufactured by Sigma. With every quote, we include the specifications of this latex paint.

RAL9010, RAL9016, White-white. In addition, all colors can be applied for an additional charge.

We use 200 gsm pre-coated Glasvlies from Intervos-Steenwijk. Incidentally, we prefer Renovlies.

We use ProGold Renovlies 150 grams.

Customers choose Renovlies.net for our craftsmanship, clear communication, high-quality materials and a reliable end result. We deliver quality with no surprises, just beautifully smooth walls. See the reviews.

In newly built homes, shrinkage cracks often appear. Renovlies absorbs these movements and prevents visible cracks. Because the shrinkage cracks remain behind the Renovlies. This keeps the result looking smooth for longer than with traditional plastering.

Yes. This applies to all brands of latex, except silk-gloss or washable latex. These shiny patches can appear from touching or rubbing against the wall, and are especially noticeable with dark colours such as black, blue and brown.

We have a detailed explanation from one of our suppliers about the sensitivity to burnishing and streaking. It also explains exactly what scrub classes are. We of course use scrub class 1 (which is different from washable latex).

If you want to be sure this won't happen in your home, the best option is to have your entire property painted in semi-gloss or washable latex. This does cost roughly double the price of regular latex. Operating rooms and waiting rooms in hospitals are also finished with it. Most people choose to have only the kitchen done in washable latex.

No. We carefully conceal them before applying the finishing coat. The result is guaranteed to be flat and smooth. Feel free to come and take a look at our sample walls, which we have plastered and then fitted with Renovlies. That way you can judge the result for yourself.
