What we encounter in Alblasserdam
In Alblasserdam the largest group of homes was built between 1945 and 1975 (45.5%). The walls there are usually brick or sand-lime brick with a gypsum plaster, often wallpapered several times over. We match the bonding coat and type of plaster accordingly.
In the roughly 3,900 post-war reconstruction homes, walls are often buried under years of wallpaper and paint. The wallpaper comes off; sound paint can stay with a bonding coat over it.
Alblasserdam has 8,473 homes. On average a home there has a WOZ value of €343,000; when renovating or selling, smooth plastering is often one of the first jobs.

Questions about plastering walls in Alblasserdam
Do you plaster walls throughout Alblasserdam?
Yes, throughout the municipality of Alblasserdam, including Blokweer, Centrum and Souburgh. Send photos and you'll hear the price and schedule.
Who removes the old wallpaper?
You can do that yourself to save money, or we'll include it. We don't plaster over wallpaper: the layer will come loose later.
Ready for painting or ready for wallpapering?
Ready for painting if you want to paint, ready for wallpapering if wallpaper or lining paper is going on.
Can I paint straight after plastering?
No, first the wall must be completely dry: evenly light in colour. Then a diluted first coat of latex, then the finishing coats.
Do sockets and switches need to be removed?
The cover plates come off, so we can plaster neatly up to the mounting box. After drying, they go back on.
