Get Your Apartment Painted in Germany: Stress-Free & Affordable
Whether you live in a major hub like Berlin, Hamburg, or Munich, or want to refresh your home in a smaller town – a fresh coat of paint works wonders. In Germany, "cosmetic repairs" (Schönheitsreparaturen) when moving out are a classic requirement. Landlords often demand a professional-looking white finish. But who has the time or the budget for an expensive professional painting company?
This is where ProfiStudis comes in. Germany is a country of universities – from RWTH Aachen to TU Munich, there are motivated students everywhere looking to use their manual skills to earn extra money. We connect you with these talents. Our helpers are active in your neighborhood, know the local hardware stores, and understand what matters when painting typical German old or new buildings.
Why booking with us is safe and easy:
- Individual Request: Describe your project – whether it's one room or the whole house.
- Manual Selection: We don't just use bots. Our experts review every application personally and choose the student who best fits your needs.
- Identity Check: All helpers undergo an internal verification process. We only connect you with serious and reliable profiles.
- Exclusive Reservation: Once you confirm via email, your helper is firmly booked.
- Perfect Planning: Our 3-2-1 reminder system ensures the helper is notified 3 days, 2 days, and 1 day before the appointment. For long-term jobs, we require re-confirmation – so there are no nasty surprises.
Demand in Germany is particularly high during the classic moving months at the start of the semester or in spring. However, thanks to our large network, we can usually find the right support for you even at short notice.
Our Experts for Your Painting Projects
From careful masking to a streak-free finish – our helpers support you with all necessary tasks:
- Preparation: Masking baseboards, door frames, and windows, and laying out painter's fleece.
- Walls & Ceilings: Even application of emulsion paint or eco-friendly alternatives.
- Touch-ups: Filling drill holes with putty and light sanding.
- Radiators & Doors: Painting/lacquering for a fresh, well-maintained look.
- Material Support: Helpers assist you with shopping at hardware stores (e.g., OBI, Hornbach, or Bauhaus) and carry heavy paint buckets.
- Teamwork: For larger projects, we coordinate multiple helpers. Pro tip: Open a WhatsApp group for communication to brief everyone at once!

FAQ: Painter Assistants
Materials are standardly provided by you. The advantage for you is that you can buy the exact coverage class and shades you prefer. If you are unsure how much paint or tape you will need, you can easily coordinate with your assigned helpers beforehand.
Yes, 100%! Painting and renovation work within your own four walls qualifies as a household-related service (haushaltsnahe Dienstleistungen). You will receive an official invoice from us. If you pay via bank transfer, you can deduct up to 20% of the labor costs directly from your German tax return.
No problem at all! You can book your helpers flexibly for two or more consecutive days – for example, Day 1 for taping and the first coat, and Day 2 for the second coat after everything has dried. If the project unexpectedly takes longer, you can easily extend the assignment through your customer account.
No problem! We can assemble teams of several people. We recommend using a WhatsApp group for quick coordination of everyone involved.
