Painting Historic Buildings
Our Amsterdam is rich with beautiful, characteristic historic buildings. These require a different approach—one that prioritizes the preservation of their historic value. This is a skill we have honed over many years. And it goes beyond just painting. Our expertise extends to other specialized restorations for historic buildings, such as wood rot repairs, protecting facades from cold and moisture, and replacing detailed woodwork, stone, or glass elements.
We restore buildings to their original appearance while providing renewed protection for the monument. At Heym, we understand the power of historic value—and why it must be preserved. That’s why we have taken the time to achieve the position we hold today. Years of experience renovating and painting numerous heritage-listed buildings have provided us with extensive knowledge, expertise, and a broad network of specialist partners. Together with these specialists, we offer tailored advice, including guidance on permits, regulations, and other matters surrounding the renovation of historic properties.
Our painting services are available year-round, both indoors and outdoors. We believe that painting historic buildings isn’t season-dependent.
Monumental colors
Choosing colors isn’t always easy, especially for historic buildings. We’re happy to provide expert advice and take the time to do so. Our painters consider the entire building—both inside and out—including its surroundings and the impact of light.
We offer a wide range of authentic paint colors, including canal green, Gelderland blue, and marl white. We carefully select the best combination of paint products and colors to match the building, its surroundings, and your specific wishes. Heym Verduurzaming will breathe new life into your historic property while maintaining its authenticity.
What our customers say

Marieke uit Amsterdam
Good work was done, renovating the front and rear facade of 3 buildings and when we critiqued something, they dealt with it by immediately undertaking action. Nice team of people, we are very satisfied.

The friendly and skilled painters worked carefully. I am extremely satisfied with the result and can recommend Groen Schilders to anyone.

Ben uit Amsterdam
All the men were tidy, reliable and true craftsmen. In a short period of time they have done a neat job. The paint on one of the doors didn't hold very well and they immediately came to repair it. They were always perfectly on time and took our wishes into account. We will definitely ask them again, although it will probably take a long time because they have done a good job so it won't be necessary again soon.
Our approach
Craftsmanship—that’s what we stand for. We work meticulously and take the time needed for each project. We provide the special attention that painting historic buildings requires. And our excellence isn’t just evident during the process but becomes even more visible over time, when you see how the paint holds up—and keeps holding up.
Our craftsmanship ensures a worry-free experience for you. Whether you’re a private homeowner, a homeowners’ association (VvE), or a business, our approach is centered on trust and respect at every step. Clear communication is essential to us—before, during, and after the project. With Heym Verduurzaming, you can expect a seamless process.
Painting Warranty
Sustainable quality is our top priority when it comes to painting. And with a strong focus on durability, we stand behind our work. That’s why we offer a five-year warranty on the quality of our painting and on the paint products used—even for historic properties.
