What we encounter in Wassenaar
The largest group of homes in Wassenaar was built between 1945 and 1975 (35.1%). There we mainly encounter concrete ceilings with a thin spray layer, and in single-family homes also timber joist floors with plasterboard or board. This determines how we prepare the ceiling before the plaster layer is applied.
In Wassenaar, 71% of homes are houses. That usually means several ceilings per home: downstairs, the landing and the bedrooms. Having them done together gives the same smoothness everywhere.
Wassenaar has approximately 4,300 homes from before 1945. If a reed ceiling sags or the plaster comes loose, we often recommend installing a new ceiling underneath rather than patching.
Ceilings with textured spray plaster from the sixties to early nineties are common in Wassenaar. A spray coating from before 1994 may contain asbestos: if in doubt, have a sample tested first before any sanding or stripping takes place.

The average WOZ value in Wassenaar is €728,000. In more expensive homes, it's more often a complete renovation; plastering then comes after the pipework and before the painting.

How we approach it in Wassenaar
- Request with photos of the ceiling in Wassenaar.
- 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 plastering a ceiling in Wassenaar cost?
A price per m² for plastering is not listed in our rates, because the substrate differs so much from property to property. You therefore receive a tailored quote: after photos and measurements, or after a short on-site assessment. You hear that price in advance.
For a ceiling in Wassenaar, we mainly look at:
- The number of ceilings (living room, bedrooms, landing).
- Reinforce joints or pre-treat Artex.
- Repair or replacement of a reed ceiling.
- The height, especially with a void or stairwell.
Questions about ceiling plastering in Wassenaar
Do you plaster ceilings throughout Wassenaar?
Yes, throughout the municipality of Wassenaar, including Noordoostelijk deel der gemeente and Zuidwestelijk deel der gemeente. Send photos and you'll hear the price and planning.
Does the old spack have to come off?
No, usually not. If it's firmly attached, we apply a bonding coat and then the plaster coat. We only remove loose areas.
How long before I can paint?
If the ceiling is evenly light in colour; with a normal coat allow about a week.
Will the seams come back?
By reinforcing them with mesh beforehand, the risk is small. With concrete slabs, a fine line may become visible after years.
Can a reed ceiling be plastered?
Only if it's still firmly attached. Otherwise we recommend a new ceiling underneath.
