Latex spraying Sloten en Nieuw-Sloten is different from the rest of the city, because this is an area of family houses: 62 per cent according to Statistics Netherlands (CBS, 2024). That means stairwells, landings and several bedrooms. As a latex sprayer we come from Haarlem, about 17 kilometres as the crow flies. We charge from €7.95 per m2 for walls and ceilings, two coats, after hand sanding. A free on-site visit comes first, then a quote with the exact price. That way you know in advance what a whole house costs, from the ground floor to the top storey.
Spacious living in Sloten and Nieuw-Sloten: the figures at a glance
According to Statistics Netherlands (CBS, 2024), 14,630 people live here in 6,135 homes, spread over 6,775 households. Density is 3,139 residents per km2, lower than the 4,950 of Amsterdam as a whole, and you can feel that in the housing: 62 per cent single-family and 38 per cent multi-family, while the municipality as a whole has 13 per cent single-family homes.
Ownership is split almost evenly: 49 per cent owner-occupied and 50 per cent rented. Across Amsterdam it is 30 per cent owner-occupied and 70 per cent rented. The average WOZ value (the municipal property valuation) is €533,000, above the municipal average of €498,000.
Nearly all homes, 99 per cent, are older than 10 years. Statistics Netherlands distinguishes areas such as Dorp Sloten, Nieuw-Sloten-Noordwest and Belgiëplein e.o. With so many owner-occupiers in houses with their own front door, the jobs here tend to be larger, family-oriented projects.
For spray work these are the features we look at: a lot of wall surface, more rooms, a staircase and often a resident who stays in the house. That calls for planning floor by floor, so you can keep using part of the home.
A small calculation from the CBS figures: 14,630 residents across 6,775 households is slightly more than two people per household. The homes are not necessarily full, but they are laid out generously. With almost as many tenants as owners, we get enquiries from both owners and landlords. Owners usually want a lasting result, landlords a quick handover.

Stairwell, void and landing: airless spraying at height
In a family house the stairwell is usually the trickiest space for a painter with a roller: tall walls, a staircase as the working surface and little room to move. A spray machine copes with that better. We build the height into the planning, so the top of the wall ends up as even as the bottom.
Masking is the biggest job in a stairwell. Treads, banisters and the floor are covered completely. That takes time, but the spraying itself is quick. In our experience a family house of around 120 m2 is often finished in 1 to 2 days, including preparation. An occupied home takes longer than an empty one.
Ceilings in the living room and kitchen also give the biggest improvement. A ceiling without roller texture makes the whole room feel lighter. For more information, read about spray painting ceilings. For the walls, spray painting walls is a good complement.
Wondering whether spraying or rolling suits your family home? The answer lies in the masking and the ratio of surface to detail. You will find more explanation under the disadvantages of latex spraying.
One drawback, to be honest, is the preparation: anyone who sprays has to protect everything that is not being painted. On the other hand, the result is even and the job is short. In a family home with school-age children that is often decisive, because the disruption is limited to one or two days.

The starting prices are €7.95 (Basic), €9.95 (Medium) and €11.95 (High) per m2. For a family house we work with a larger surface area. Here is a worked example for 200 m2 of walls and ceilings, a spacious house with three bedrooms and a staircase:

| Basic | 3 | €1,590 |

The scrub class refers to NEN-EN 13300, where class 1 is the most washable. These are starting amounts for light colours and one colour per quote.

To see what influences the total, read about the price of latex spraying.
A family that uses the hall and staircase a lot often chooses Medium or High there, and Basic in the bedrooms. Do you have underfloor heating, parquet or a new kitchen? Tell us at the on-site visit and we will make sure those areas are covered extra carefully. In a family house it is also sensible to decide whether the garage, the storage room or the loft should be included. Those are separate spaces that we can quote for separately.

Frequently asked questions about latex spraying in Sloten en Nieuw-Sloten
Can you spray latex in Sloten en Nieuw-Sloten in an occupied family house?
Yes. We work floor by floor or room by room, so you can keep using part of the house. Furniture is covered or moved by you, and everything is masked. Afterwards we clear up and walk through the work with you before you pay.
What does it cost to have a stairwell sprayed in Sloten en Nieuw-Sloten?
The price for stairwell walls follows the normal starting price per m2: €7.95, €9.95 or €11.95. We do measure the surface at the on-site visit, because the height counts. Having the staircase itself lacquered costs from €650 (closed) or from €700 (open).
Is a latex sprayer in Sloten en Nieuw-Sloten quicker than a painter with a roller?
In our experience spraying is up to 5 times quicker than rolling. For a 120 m2 home that often means 1 to 2 days, including preparation. Masking takes most of the time. The emptier the house, the sooner the work is done.
Which scrub class should I choose in Sloten en Nieuw-Sloten for a family?
If you have children or pets, many people choose Medium or High for the hall, stairs and living room, because those walls get dirty sooner. For bedrooms Basic is usually enough. Which class really suits you, we discuss during the free on-site visit.
Do I need to empty my home in Sloten en Nieuw-Sloten?
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.
When and how do I pay?
Only after completion, once we have walked through the work together. You can pay with an iDEAL payment link, by debit card or on invoice; businesses have 14 days.
