Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about my services

Yes — Tom's Klussen is built specifically for that. Every quote, message and job is handled in English, with no Dutch paperwork or phone menus to navigate. I've helped expats and foreigners across Amsterdam with everything from IKEA assembly to move-out repairs for 3+ years.

The call-out is up to €150 including VAT and the first hour of work is already in there. Every additional hour is €60, and if a job only runs up to 20 minutes into the next hour you pay half – just €30. You always get a clear estimate in English before I start and a transparent invoice afterwards – no hidden costs.

Yes – most of my clients are internationals. All communication, quotes and invoices are in English, and I explain which Dutch wall types, anchors and materials your apartment needs so nothing is lost in translation.

That's my most requested service. Before your final inspection I fill drill holes, touch up or repaint walls and repair minor damage so the apartment is handed over in the condition your landlord expects. Read more about move-out repairs.

Booking is easy! Fill out the contact form, call me directly, or send me a WhatsApp message. Describe your job, and I'll get back to you within minutes with my availability and pricing. Same-day service is often available.

Yes! For urgent situations, I'm available outside regular working hours (evenings and weekends). Additional service fees may apply for after-hours work. WhatsApp me for the fastest response.

I serve Amsterdam and surrounding areas including Amstelveen, Diemen, Zaandam, Haarlem, and more. Travel within Amsterdam is free; a small travel fee may apply for locations further out.

Absolutely! I offer my personal satisfaction guarantee on all work. If you're not happy with the result, I'll come back and fix it at no extra cost. That's my promise.

I accept iDEAL, bank transfer, and cash. Payment is due after the job is completed to your satisfaction. For larger projects, I may request a deposit upfront.

Yes! I provide free, no-obligation quotes. Send me photos of the job via WhatsApp or the contact form, and I'll give you an accurate estimate. For complex jobs, I can schedule a free on-site assessment.

I understand plans change. Please give me at least 24 hours notice to cancel or reschedule at no charge. Last-minute cancellations may incur a small fee to cover scheduling costs.
