What we encounter in Voorschoten
The type of ceiling you have in Voorschoten depends strongly on the year of construction. With 42.8% of homes built between 1945 and 1975, we most often encounter concrete ceilings with a thin spray layer, and in single-family homes also timber joist floors with plasterboard or board.
In Voorschoten, 64% of homes are detached or semi-detached houses. That usually means several ceilings per house: downstairs, the landing and the bedrooms. If you have them all done together, you get the same smooth finish everywhere.
Many ceilings in Voorschoten received a spray layer between the sixties and early nineties. Spray plaster from before 1994 may contain asbestos; have it tested first if in doubt. Over an intact layer we simply plaster after applying a bonding coat.
Planning and accessibility in Voorschoten
In a highly urbanised municipality like Voorschoten (CBS), we assess parking and access routes beforehand: narrow stairs and hallways determine how we bring in materials.
In Voorschoten, 24.5% of residents are 65 years or older. When plastering in an occupied home, we prefer to work room by room, so the rest of the property remains usable.
Just outside Voorschoten too, in Leidschendam-Voorburg, Leiden and Wassenaar, we plaster ceilings; each of those municipalities has its own page with housing figures.
The average WOZ value in Voorschoten is €501,000. In more expensive homes, it's more often a complete renovation; plastering then comes after the pipework and before the painting.

Yes, throughout the municipality of Voorschoten. 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.

If the ceiling is evenly light in colour; with a normal coat allow about a week.
Will the seams come back?
