A neighbourhood with more than 11,000 residents sees many moves and refurbishments. For latex spraying Amsterdam Gein our latex sprayer comes to you from Haarlem, 17.2 kilometres as the crow flies. You pay from €7.95 per m2 (Basic), from €9.95 (Medium) or from €11.95 (High). The exact price is in your quote.
We begin with a free on-site visit at your home. Then we spray in two coats, sand by hand, fill all inside corners and hand over neatly. You pay only after completion and a joint walk-through of the work.
Owning and renting in balance: the CBS figures for Gein as a starting point for your spray work
The CBS figures (Statistics Netherlands, 2024) show 11,190 residents, 5,550 households and 5,148 homes. The housing mix is 41 per cent single-family and 59 per cent multi-family, and the ratio of owner-occupied to rented is the same: 41 per cent owner-occupied against 59 per cent rented. In Amsterdam as a whole, 13 per cent of the homes are single-family and 30 per cent owner-occupied.
With 6,105 residents per km2 the CBS calls this area strongly urban. The average WOZ value (the municipal property valuation) is €328,000, against €498,000 for the whole of Amsterdam. All homes are older than ten years.
For you as a resident, that balance means two types of client. Owners who refresh their home for themselves or for sale, and tenants or landlords who have the home handed over when someone moves out. Both groups usually want the same thing: a neat, light wall without marks.
Whichever you are, the first step is a visit. We look at the walls, check for hairline cracks and small holes and discuss what is needed. That way you know in advance where you stand.
The number of homes is large enough to show that there is no such thing as a standard home. A family house with a staircase needs different preparation from a flat, and a ground-floor rental needs different preparation from an apartment high in a building. That is why there is no fixed rate per home, but always a tailored quote.

Rolling or spraying latex in Gein: what suits your home?
What is better, rolling or spraying latex? It depends on the situation. With rolling you can do a room yourself, and that is cheap if you have the time. With spraying you get a more even coat without roller marks, and it goes faster. In our experience spraying is up to 5 times faster than rolling.
What are the drawbacks of latex spraying? Masking takes time, and the room must be empty or covered. For a small repair or a single wall, a roller is sometimes more practical. For a whole home, ceilings or several rooms, spraying wins.
Want to read the difference in detail? Look at rolling or spraying latex and disadvantages of latex spraying. There you will find an honest weighing-up.
In a home where the open kitchen and living room form one space, spraying pays off mainly because no joins appear between coats of paint. You can see that in the raking light from a window.
Can you spray latex yourself? Technically yes, with a rented machine, but without experience the risks are big: mist where you do not want it, an uneven coat and a lot of cleaning. On renting an airless sprayer you can read what is involved. We use equipment from Graco.

Handover at a move or sale: planning and costs in Gein
Because Gein has more rented than owner-occupied homes, a move-ready handover is often the goal. Then you want clean, white walls quickly, with no visible holes or signs of use. We work seven days a week from 07:30 to 19:00, so also just before a key handover.
A worked example for a home with 90 m2 of wall and ceiling to be sprayed, with light colours and one colour per quote:
- Basic: from €715.50
- Medium: from €895.50
- High: from €1,075.50
That comes from 90 x €7.95, 90 x €9.95 and 90 x €11.95. The exact price is in your quote. Want to keep it as sharp as possible? Then read affordable latex spraying on how to get a keen price without cutting back on preparation.
A family house of about 120 m2 is often finished in 1 to 2 days, preparation included, especially when empty.
Is your schedule tight, for instance because of a key handover or a moving date? Give us the date in your request. Then we see whether we can fit the work in beforehand and take it into account in the arrangements about preparation.

Frequently asked questions about latex spraying in Amsterdam Gein
What does a latex sprayer charge per m2 in Amsterdam Gein?
We charge from €7.95 per m2 for Basic, from €9.95 for Medium and from €11.95 for High. That includes advice, masking, small repairs, hand sanding, filling inside corners and two coats. We set the exact price after a free on-site visit.
Can I have my home in Amsterdam Gein sprayed before a sale?
Yes. Because 41 per cent of the homes in Gein are owner-occupied according to the CBS figures (2024), many owners do this before a viewing. A fresh, light wall looks calm and neutral. We gladly plan the work just before the photos or the first viewing.
How long is a home in Amsterdam Gein unusable during latex spraying?
The machine works fast, but preparation and drying take time. In our experience a home of about 120 m2 is often finished in 1 to 2 days. You can use the home again afterwards, although it is advisable to air the rooms for a while.
Do you spray in Amsterdam Gein in a colour other than white?
Yes, another colour is possible. The starting prices are based on light colours and one colour per quote. With dark colours or several colours the price can be higher. We discuss that at the visit, so the quote is right.
What does latex spraying cost in Amsterdam Gein?
Spraying walls and ceilings starts from €7.95 (Basic, scrub class 3), €9.95 (Medium, scrub class 2) or €11.95 (High, scrub class 1) per m2, based on light colours and one colour. The exact price for Amsterdam Gein is in the quote after a free visit.
How long does it take to spray a room in Amsterdam Gein?
In our experience one coat on a room of 12 to 20 m2 takes 30 to 60 minutes of spraying. Masking takes most of the time. A family home of about 120 m2 is often finished in 1 to 2 days, including preparation.
Is spraying faster than rolling?
In our experience latex spraying is up to 5 times faster than traditional rolling, because the airless machine atomises the paint under high pressure. The gain is biggest in an empty home or new build, where there is little to mask.
Do I need to empty my home in Amsterdam Gein?
Not completely. Remove loose items and small furniture; what stays is moved to the middle of the room and covered. We mask floors, windows and frames before spraying.
Which scrub class should I choose?
For a bedroom class 3 (Basic) is often enough. In a hallway, staircase, kitchen or children's room choose class 2 or 1, because you clean those walls more often. Class 1 is the most washable under NEN-EN 13300.
Is VAT included?
The VAT amount is shown in the quote. For homes older than 2 years the reduced 9% VAT rate on painting applies, according to the Dutch Tax Administration.
