Upstairs - more than 25 years of experience

In this popular DIY programme, Upstairs inspires DIY enthusiasts with tips and ideas. The result: a breakthrough and thousands of enquiries.

• Alpe d’Huzes
  Within our lovely family business, we have been confronted with cancer a little too often in recent years. As well as hitting the Steyvers family hard, this terrible disease also affects our staff and loved ones. That is why, on Thursday 1 June 2023, the Steyvers family took part in Alpe d’Huzes for the KWF. And with great success, as the Steyvers family ultimately raised €27,798 through their participation in Alpe d’Huzes! They are topping up the amount themselves, so that we will ultimately donate €30,000 to the KWF. How wonderful!
