What we encounter in Wassenaar
How a wall should be plastered depends on the brick and what's on it. In Wassenaar, 35.1% of homes were built between 1945 and 1975, with walls of brick or calcium silicate brick with gypsum plaster, often wallpapered multiple times.
In Wassenaar's 4,300 pre-war homes, there's often lime plaster. That's softer than gypsum; simply applying a hard layer over it can later lead to cracking or detachment. We choose a material that suits it, or strip off the old layer.
Homes from 1945–1975, around 4,400 in Wassenaar, often have walls with multiple layers of wallpaper and latex. Wallpaper must be removed first; well-adhered paint can remain after a bonding coat.
