Frequently asked questions

The cost for painting over wallpaper ranges from €150 to €350, depending on the room size, wallpaper condition, and type of paint. At Zoofy, you pay no call-out fees and our painters charge an hourly rate starting at €55 (incl. VAT), based on average professional rates.

On average, this takes 4 to 6 hours for a standard room, including preparation and applying 1–2 coats. Poorly adhered wallpaper or additional finishing may take more time.

  • Inspect the wallpaper for loose areas or damage.
  • Repair seams, cracks, and bubbles.
  • Clean and dust the walls.
  • Apply primer for proper adhesion.
  • Paint 1–2 coats with paint suitable for wallpaper.

At Zoofy, we only work with vetted painters with proven quality. You can read reviews and ratings from previous customers. Only painters with a high average rating remain active on our platform.

The statutory warranty on the painting work is provided by the painter. Zoofy also offers an optional paid warranty package for extra peace of mind. For maintenance tips, you can always get back in touch with us.

Thanks to our nationwide network, we usually find a suitable painter quickly. If not, we’ll inform you and look for a solution together.

You always pay via Zoofy. The easiest way is right after the job via the QR code, or later via the invoice sent to your email. Never pay the painter directly in cash or by card.

"Abdel was pas laat in de middag aangekomen omdat zijn vorige klus was uitgelopen. Hij heeft alles op alles gezet om het werk toch klaar te krijgen. Om 19 uur kon hij eindelijk naar huis om te eten en te drinken, want het is Ramadan. Ondanks alles heeft deze nette en vriendelijke jongeman goed gewerkt en een pluim voor Abdel."

"Wij zijn ontzettend tevreden met het werk van Nejdet. Hij werkte zeer georganiseerd en gestructureerd, was stipt op tijd en heeft de klus snel en efficiënt uitgevoerd. De communicatie verliep prettig en duidelijk. Het eindresultaat is echt uitstekend, strakke lijnen, nette afwerking en alles keurig schoon achtergelaten. Hij heeft onze verwachtingen absoluut overtroffen. Zeker een aanrader! "

"I had a fantastic experience with Sandro Almeida through Zoofy. From start to finish, he was professional, punctual, and extremely detail-oriented. He took the time to properly prepare the surfaces, protect the furniture and floors, and ensure everything was done neatly and carefully. The quality of his painting work is outstanding — clean lines, smooth finishes, and great attention to detail. He clearly takes pride in his craft. On top of that, he was friendly, respectful, and easy to communicate with, which made the whole process stress-free. If you’re looking for a reliable and skilled painter who delivers excellent results, I highly recommend Sandro Almeida. I would definitely book him again for future projects!"
