- AMSTERDAM
What we often come across in Amsterdam
Klusbedrijf MSZ is based in Almere, but after Almere, Amsterdam is our biggest city. Of our reviews on Werkspot, the Dutch review platform, 71 come from customers in Amsterdam, Amstelveen and Diemen: more than from any other place. It is mostly leaks and pipework, toilets that keep running or leak, showers and thermostatic taps, and taps in kitchens and bathrooms.
Many homes in Amsterdam were built before 1960. Taps, traps, drains and sealant joints there are often due for replacement, and pipes sometimes still sit in the original floor or wall. Lead pipes were banned in 1960, but checks in 2021 still found lead in 3,987 of the 87,312 pre-1960 homes owned by Amsterdam housing associations, mostly in Amsterdam-Noord.
Amsterdam is also built on soft peat and clay. If the garden and street sink relative to the house, a sewer connection can come under strain or start to leak. Problems with the sewer in the street are reported to the City of Amsterdam; on your own property you call in a plumber yourself.
Is the drain not running? You are responsible for the connection on your own property, up to the property boundary. If the blockage is further along in the sewer in the street, report it to the City of Amsterdam on 14 020 or with the reporting form on amsterdam.nl. On your own property, we will solve it for you.
- PER SERVICE IN AMSTERDAM
Our services in Amsterdam: what we pay attention to
Leak detection in Amsterdam: where the leak usually is. In a flat, a leak often comes from upstairs or runs through to the neighbours below. So we also check pipes and drains you share with the neighbours, and put in writing where the leak was: that helps with the neighbours, the owners' association and the insurer.
Pipework in Amsterdam: what we find in these homes. If we replace a section of pipe in an old building, we also check whether there is still lead in it and advise you what else needs replacing.
Drain unblocking in Amsterdam: do I call the municipality or a plumber?. In a block of flats, several homes share the same soil stack. If water drains slowly at your place and at the neighbours', the blockage is probably in that shared pipe; report it to the owners' association or landlord as well.
Sewers in Amsterdam: what the ground does to them. If the garden or street sinks relative to a building on piles, the sewer connection comes under strain. With a recurring blockage we therefore use a camera to see whether the pipe has sunk or broken.
Sanitary ware in Amsterdam: what we replace most. In Amsterdam our jobs are mostly toilets that keep running, leaking cisterns, showers and thermostatic taps: the jobs Amsterdam customers review most often on Werkspot.
Boiler in Amsterdam: what we pay attention to. In a flat the boiler often hangs in a cupboard in the kitchen or hall, with little room for the flue and air supply. When replacing it, we first check whether the new type fits that space.
Radiators in Amsterdam: what we often find. Older Amsterdam buildings often have radiators and pipes that have lasted for decades. During a renovation we move or replace them as part of the job, and we check whether the pipes in the floor are still sound.
Ventilation in Amsterdam: own unit or shared extraction?. In a block of flats ventilation is sometimes arranged per home and sometimes centrally via the roof. With a central system the owners' association or landlord is responsible; we replace or clean your own unit for you.
Gas pipes in Amsterdam: from old pipe to capping off. In older Amsterdam buildings, gas pipes sometimes still run through shared spaces or old ducts. If you switch to induction, we cap the pipe off properly; work on shared pipes we discuss with the owners' association.
Consumer unit in Amsterdam: when to replace it?. Older Amsterdam homes sometimes still have a fuse box or a consumer unit without residual current devices. If you get an induction hob, an extra circuit is often needed.
Extensions in Amsterdam: ground, space and rules. With a building on wooden piles, an extension must not load the existing foundation. So we only decide on the foundation after investigating the ground and the building.
Complete renovation in Amsterdam: what is behind the walls. When renovating an Amsterdam flat, we discuss work on shared pipes, drains and noise with the owners' association in advance.
Covered patio or garden building in Amsterdam. In an Amsterdam city garden space is limited and fences are close to the neighbours. We help you choose a covered patio that fits and drains the rainwater properly.
Bathroom renovation in Amsterdam: what we pay attention to. In a flat your bathroom is above the neighbours' home. So we make the floor and shower extra watertight, because the neighbour below is the first to notice a leak.
Connecting a kitchen in Amsterdam. In a flat the connection points are often fixed to the soil stack. If you want to move the kitchen, we first check whether the drain can get enough fall.
Roofing in Amsterdam: the kinds of roofs we find here. For a flat the roof usually belongs to the owners' association, and the top floor is the first to notice a roof leak. We seal it first and then discuss the repair with you and the association.
Tiling in Amsterdam: the surface first. In older Amsterdam buildings floors are not always level and wooden floors move. We level them and choose a tile and adhesive that suit, so no cracks appear later.
Plastering and painting in Amsterdam. Old Amsterdam buildings often have lime plaster and wooden ceilings. We choose a plaster and paint that suit, and finish slots after pipework neatly.
Epoxy floor in Amsterdam: the concrete floor first. In Amsterdam, epoxy is often for a business space, storeroom or basement. We first check for damp in the floor, because a coating adheres poorly to a damp surface.
Maintenance in Amsterdam: small jobs in one visit. Many Amsterdam customers combine jobs: a tap, a trap and a sealant joint in one visit. That saves call-out charges.
