One team, from demolition to the last skirting board

BestBouw Amsterdam takes the whole renovation off your hands. No need to find separate builders, electricians and tilers: we plan, build and finish, with one fixed point of contact.

Our craftsmen are certified and work with materials from trusted manufacturers. Old buildings get a second life, and new homes get a finish that lasts.

  • 01

    Fair and flexible

    Something changes along the way? We think along with you. You pay market rates, by the hour or a fixed price including materials.

  • 02

    Fast and on schedule

    We start quickly and work to a fixed schedule. From structural work to handover we arrange everything, so you only need to call one company.

  • 03

    Quality that lasts

    A site manager supervises the entire project, there is no alcohol on site, and all our work comes with a warranty.

Sea Palace Amsterdam

Oosterdokskade, Amsterdam

The floating Chinese restaurant in the Oosterdok is one of the most recognisable buildings in Amsterdam.

BestBouw worked here too, on a wide range of renovation and finishing jobs. A place where everything has to be right, and it was.

Dental practice

We handled the renovation of this dental practice. A healthcare practice calls for precise work, hygienic materials and a schedule that patients barely notice.
