Gouda in figures

The construction years and type of homes in Gouda determine which walls and ceilings we encounter most often.

21,1%built before 1945Netherlands: 18%
29,9%built 1945–1975Netherlands: 28.9%
29,2%built 1975–1995Netherlands: 26.2%
34.785homes in Gouda35,137 households

21.1% of homes in Gouda date from before 1945 (around 7,600 properties). We still regularly encounter old lime plaster and reed ceilings there, often hidden behind plasterboard or a suspended ceiling.

The proportion of homes from 1945–1975 in Gouda is 29.9%. The same applies there: what's already on the wall determines whether we can plaster over it or need to strip it first.

What stands out in Gouda is the share of homes from 1975–1995: 29.2%. Ceilings made of concrete panels with V-joints and a textured spray finish (spack) are typical for that period. If you want those joints gone, you can choose smooth plastering or a fresh spray finish.

In Gouda, according to Statistics Netherlands (CBS), 377 new-build homes were added in 2024. These are usually delivered ready for wallpapering; plastering ready for painting or spray-finishing is then a frequently requested next step.

The housing stock in Gouda is mixed: 58% single-family homes and 42% flats and maisonettes. With a flat it's more often concrete ceilings; with a single-family home it also includes the stairwell and loft.

Costs

What does a plasterer cost in Gouda?

For plastering there is no fixed price in our tariff list. You receive a tailored price, based on photos and measurements or after a brief on-site assessment. You always hear the price before we start.

  • How many rooms and how many m² per room.
  • What's currently on it: removing loose layers takes extra time.
  • How smooth it needs to be: ready for painting requires more than ready for wallpapering.
  • Height: ceilings above approximately 2.6 metres and stairwells.

With ceilings with V-joints, common in Gouda, the joints are first reinforced and filled. We include that in the quote in advance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about plastering in Gouda

Will a plasterer come to Gouda?

Yes. We work throughout Gouda, including Plaswijck, Goverwelle and Noord, and in the neighbouring municipalities of Waddinxveen, Bodegraven-Reeuwijk and Zuidplas. Send photos and we'll let you know when we can come.

What does a plasterer cost in Gouda?

We calculate plastering to measure: it depends on the number of m², the surface and the finish. Send photos and measurements, then you'll receive a price in advance.

How long does plaster need to dry?

Allow approximately one week per centimetre of layer thickness, depending on ventilation and temperature. After that it can be painted or wallpapered.

My reed ceiling is sagging. Can it still be saved?

Sometimes yes: loose sections can be secured and repaired. If the reed or plaster is loose over a large area, we usually install a new ceiling underneath. We'll discuss this after the on-site assessment.

Can textured spray plaster contain asbestos?

Spray plaster and decorative plaster from before 1994 may contain asbestos. If in doubt, have a sample tested first before sanding or removing. Plastering over an intact ceiling is often possible.

How do I request it?
