De Koning Schilders

What De Koning Schilders does

De Koning Schilders is a fourth-generation family-owned painting and property maintenance company headquartered at Hassinkweg 9 in Hengelo, Netherlands, operating in the Twente region of Overijssel. Founded in 1906 by Hendrik Albertus de Koning originally as a church-pew painting business in Markelo, the company has grown into a multi-trade finishing contractor serving primarily commercial clients including housing corporations (Welbions), healthcare institutions (ZGT, Carintreggeland), educational organizations (OSG Almelo Hengelo, Brigantijn), construction firms (Hegeman Bouwgroep, Nijhuis Bouw, Dura Vermeer), government bodies (COA), and technology/defense (Thales). Privately held by the De Koning family and currently led by director Erik de Koning, the company employs approximately 30 skilled craftsmen with an average tenure exceeding 25 years.

The company's core offering is an integrated portfolio of six finishing trades: painting and spray work (including an in-house spray cabin with extraction system at Hassinkweg), wallpapering, flooring installation (carpet, Marmoleum, PVC), glazing (single, HR++, safety glass per NEN3569), wood repair, and window treatments delivered through a Luxaflex Select Dealer partnership. The technology stack is rooted in traditional craftsmanship combined with modern materials and equipment such as aerial work platforms, with no proprietary software or digital platform. The company holds VCA, OnderhoudNL Garantie, Veiligheidsladder, and Meester Schilder certifications, which serve as procurement prerequisites for many enterprise and government clients.

Revenue is generated through project-based, quote-led contracts following on-site surveys. The company offers both one-off projects and multi-year maintenance plans (MJOP) for commercial clients, with pricing not publicly disclosed. No subscription, recurring-license, or self-service revenue model exists. The go-to-market is entirely consultative and direct, conducted via phone, email, and in-person quotation, supported by a website and a Facebook page. Residential work is accepted only on a consultation basis, with the primary commercial segment being the Twente regional business market.

Broad incumbents

• Hago (Vebego): Dutch facility services provider within the Vebego group offering cleaning, maintenance, and finishing services to commercial and institutional clients. Comparable in serving B2B/institutional property maintenance but with a much broader service portfolio.
• CSU Total Care: Large Dutch cleaning and facility services provider offering integrated building maintenance, including painting and finishing services, to commercial and institutional clients. Overlaps with De Koning in the B2B property maintenance space but at national scale.
• Koninklijke Van der Wiel: Larger Dutch painting, coating, and industrial services contractor offering architectural, industrial, and specialty coatings across the Netherlands. Comparable in core painting/trade contracting activity but operates at materially greater national scale than De Koning Schilders.
• ISS Nederland: Subsidiary of global facility services group ISS A/S, providing integrated facility services including cleaning, building maintenance, and finishing work across Dutch commercial and institutional sites. Overlaps with De Koning Schilders' commercial property maintenance motion but at national scale.
• Breijer Bouw en Onderhoud: Dutch multi-disciplinary building maintenance and renovation contractor offering painting, finishing, and renovation services to commercial and institutional clients. Comparable in multi-trade finishing and MJOP-style maintenance contracting.
• Facilicom Services Group: Dutch family-owned facility services group offering cleaning, security, catering, and building maintenance including painting/finishing across Dutch commercial and institutional accounts. Comparable customer profile but vastly larger service breadth and headcount.

Regional players

• Schilders- en Onderhoudsbedrijf B.V. Regional Dutch painting and building maintenance contractor serving commercial, residential, and institutional clients. Comparable multi-trade finishing model and target segments, with regional rather than nationwide focus.

Others

• Luxaflex (Hunter Douglas): Premium window covering brand and supplier of blinds, shades, and screens; De Koning Schilders operates as a Luxaflex Select Dealer. Channel partner relationship rather than competitor — relevant as upstream brand and ecosystem participant.
• Tremco CPG Netherlands: Supplier of construction products including paints, coatings, sealants, and surface treatments for the Dutch building and infrastructure market. Adjacent rather than directly competitive; relevant as a material supplier and ecosystem participant in the same painting/finishing value chain.

Direct peers

• Van Wijngaarden Schilders & Afwerking: Dutch painting and finishing contractor serving commercial and residential clients with similar multi-trade offering. Closely comparable in service scope, business model, and target segments, differing primarily in geographic focus within the Netherlands.
