Many tilers set up after years as employees or in near-exclusive subcontracting for a single firm. Self-employed status assumes genuine independence: own clients, own equipment, freedom of organisation. A file that looks like disguised employment risks requalification, with contributions attached. We check this at scoping, because it commits far more than the licence.

How does the filing proceed?

We prepare the file, submit it on MyGuichet to the Directorate-General for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises and follow it through to the decision. You sign, we do the rest; the flat fee is confirmed in writing before any hour is billed.

From laying tiles to general contracting: growing cleanly

Moving from independent layer to a firm dealing directly with project owners is prepared: a company, SARL-S at the single EUR 2,049 flat fee, first employees at EUR 20 excl. VAT per payslip, and site accounting that follows progress statements. Every line is published on the 2026 fee grid.
