Walls in Dordrecht
In Dordrecht, the largest group of homes was built between 1945 and 1975 (29.8%). The walls there are usually brick or sand-lime brick with plaster, often wallpapered multiple times. We adjust the bonding layer and type of plaster accordingly.
Dordrecht has around 13,000 homes from before 1945, often with lime plaster on the walls. We don't just put a hard gypsum layer over that: we choose a suitable material or remove the old layer down to the brick.
27.9% of homes in Dordrecht are from 1975–1995, with many aerated concrete internal walls. Aerated concrete draws water out of the plaster; that's why we apply a base coat first, otherwise you'll get shrinkage cracks.
Practical: wall plastering in Dordrecht
Neighbourhoods where we work in Dordrecht: Sterrenburg, Stadspolders, Dubbeldam, Het Reeland and Oud Krispijn, and the rest of the municipality.
In a very highly urbanised municipality such as Dordrecht (CBS), we check parking and the route inside beforehand: narrow stairs and entrance halls determine how we bring in the materials.
Just outside Dordrecht too, in Papendrecht, Sliedrecht and Hendrik-Ido-Ambacht, we plaster walls; each of those municipalities has its own page with the housing figures.
