Walls in Papendrecht
How a wall should be plastered depends on the masonry and what's on it. In Papendrecht, 42.1% of homes were built between 1945 and 1975, with walls of brick or sand-lime brick with gypsum plaster, often wallpapered multiple times.
Post-1945 houses in Papendrecht (up to 1975 around 6,200) usually have gypsum plaster that has often been wallpapered or painted. We start by removing wallpaper and testing adhesion.
30.1% of homes in Papendrecht 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 Papendrecht
Whether you live in Westpolder, Wilgendonk and Kraaihoek or elsewhere in Papendrecht: the approach is the same, we coordinate the planning to your address.
According to Statistics Netherlands (CBS), Papendrecht is highly urbanised. In busier streets we arrange in advance how to bring the plastering materials inside and where we can load and unload.
In Papendrecht, 23.1% of residents are 65 or older. When plastering in an occupied home, we then prefer to work room by room, so the rest of the property remains usable.

Questions about wall plastering in Papendrecht
Do you plaster walls throughout all of Papendrecht?
Yes, throughout the municipality of Papendrecht, including Westpolder, Wilgendonk and Kraaihoek. 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 a wall with holes from old plugs also be made smooth?
Yes. We fill holes and damage first, then the plaster layer goes over the entire wall, so you won't see anything of it.
How long does a plastered wall need to dry?
About a week per centimetre of layer thickness; a thin finishing layer quicker.
