Latex spraying in Weesperzijde: a dense district according to the CBS figures
Weesperzijde is a compact, dense city district. According to Statistics Netherlands (CBS, 2024) there are 3,073 homes, with 5,925 residents and 3,700 households. The density is 16,028 residents per km2, more than three times the 4,950 of the municipality of Amsterdam. Of the homes, 99 per cent are apartments and 1 per cent are houses.
Renting is 62 per cent and owning 37 per cent, a balance that leans slightly more towards ownership than the municipal average of 70 and 30 per cent. The WOZ value (the municipal property valuation) is €584,000, which is €86,000 above the €498,000 for the municipality. Of the homes, 95 per cent are older than ten years and 5 per cent were built in the past ten years.
That is relevant for your job, because such dense residential blocks have little space. The stairs are narrow, the hallway is short and furniture is quickly in the way. Still, with good preparation the work goes smoothly. Part of the job is simply scheduling: who is at home, what stays, what goes.
It is work we gladly do in this kind of home. If you want to know what is possible for your address, we start with a short list of questions at the appointment: number of rooms, floor, lift and whether the home is occupied.
One practical point: in a dense block the neighbours are close, so we keep noise to normal daytime hours and keep the shared stairwell and entrance clean. If anything gets in the way, such as bicycles in the hall or a blocked loading spot, a quick message beforehand lets us plan around it.

What is latex spraying? Tackling walls and ceilings in Weesperzijde
How exactly does latex spraying work? The machine draws paint from a bucket and forces it under pressure through a fine spray tip. The explanation is under how latex spraying works. In our experience this method is up to 5 times faster than rolling, because you cover large surfaces in one movement. For a standard room of 12 to 20 m2, one coat is sprayed in 30 to 60 minutes.
What can you prepare yourself? You take down wall shelves, lamps and pictures, and move small furniture to another room. We mask and cover the rest. In a small home it helps to work room by room, so you always keep a usable space.
In narrow stairwells we carry the machine, hoses and covering material upstairs in parts. We lay runners or sheeting on the stairs and in the hall and tape off the banister. If your front door opens onto a shared corridor, tell your neighbours so they know what is going on.
Do you wonder whether you should have your walls sprayed or whether another method is better for them? Then look at spray painting walls. During the visit we give you honest advice, even if that means rolling is the wiser choice in your case.

What does a latex sprayer cost in Weesperzijde? Example with 55 m2
What does latex spraying cost? That depends on the surface area, the chosen package and the condition of the walls. An example with 55 m2 of walls and ceilings:
- Basic: 55 x 7.95 = €437.25
- Medium: 55 x 9.95 = €547.25
- High: 55 x 11.95 = €657.25
All amounts are starting prices for light colours and one colour per quote. You receive a quote with the exact price after the visit. A detailed explanation is under price of latex spraying.
The price covers on-site advice, the surface check, masking of windows and frames, small repairs, hand sanding, filling of inside corners, two coats, clearing up and handover. A small home can work out relatively more expensive per m2, because masking takes as long as in a larger home.
You pay only after completion and a joint walk-through of the work, with an iDEAL payment link, debit card at the van or invoice.
Torn between Basic, Medium and High? Think about use. In a hallway, kitchen or living room you would rather choose a higher scrub class (the washability rating under NEN-EN 13300). In a bedroom or guest room Basic is often enough. We are happy to think along per room.

Frequently asked questions about latex spraying in Weesperzijde
Is it sensible to have ceiling and walls sprayed together in Weesperzijde?
How do you get materials upstairs in a narrow stairwell in Weesperzijde?
Can I stay at home in Weesperzijde while the latex is sprayed?
What does a latex sprayer in Weesperzijde cost for a whole home of 100 m2?
How long does it take to spray a room in Weesperzijde?
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 Weesperzijde?
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.
