What we encounter in Hillegom
The largest group of homes in Hillegom was built between 1975 and 1995 (29.4%). There we mainly encounter concrete slabs with V-joints and a textured spray layer (spack). That determines how we prepare the ceiling before the plaster layer goes on.
In Hillegom, 69% of homes are detached houses. This usually means multiple ceilings per house: downstairs, the landing and the bedrooms. Having them done together ensures the same smoothness throughout.
Ceilings with artex or spray plaster from the sixties to early nineties are common in Hillegom. A spray layer from before 1994 may contain asbestos: if in doubt, have a sample tested before any sanding or removal.
Newer homes in Hillegom usually have a sprayed wide-slab floor as a ceiling. If the joints show through, a smooth plaster layer with reinforced joints creates a calm ceiling.

How we approach it in Hillegom

- Check substrate: Artex, concrete, reed or plasterboard.
- Planning: the room empty or furniture moved to one side.
- Application in one continuous operation per ceiling, so that no joins are visible.
What does ceiling plastering cost in Hillegom?
How much plastering costs depends on what's currently on the ceiling. We therefore work with a tailored price: send photos and measurements, or we'll come and have a look. You know the price before anything happens.
For a ceiling in Hillegom, we mainly look at:
- The number of ceilings (living room, bedrooms, landing).
- Reinforce joints or pre-treat Artex.
- The height, especially with a void or stairwell.

Questions about ceiling plastering in Hillegom
Do you plaster ceilings throughout Hillegom?
Yes, throughout the municipality of Hillegom, including Hillegom Zuid, Hillegom Midden and Hillegom Noord. Send photos and you'll hear the price and schedule.
Can a textured ceiling be made smooth?
Yes. A bonding coat is applied over the artex, followed by a smooth plaster layer. The artex itself usually doesn't need to be removed.
How long before I can paint?
If the ceiling is evenly light in colour; with a normal coat allow about a week.
Do I need to clear the room for the ceiling?
Preferably mostly. What remains we place in the middle or to one side and cover it; we protect the floor with dust sheets.
Can a plasterboard ceiling also be plastered?
Yes. On plasterboard, a thin plaster layer goes over the finished joints, so the ceiling becomes one smooth surface with no visible board joints.
