Looking for latex spraying Leiden? Latex-Spuiter.nl from Haarlem sprays walls and ceilings in Leiden apartments and family houses. As a latex sprayer we charge from €7.95 (Basic), €9.95 (Medium) or €11.95 (High) per m2, and you can read the exact price in the quote.
The city of Leiden lies about 26.6 km as the crow flies from the centre of Haarlem. That is at the edge of our service area, but within the 30 km we work in. Because a large share of Leiden homes are apartments, we also discuss access, parking and arrangements with the VvE (the owners' association of the building) or landlord beforehand.
Leiden homes according to CBS: apartments shape the spray work
According to CBS figures (2024), 130,108 people live in Leiden, spread over 73,720 households. There are 63,853 homes. So there are more households than homes, which is why in planning you do not automatically assume that one address is one household. With a quote, always ask who decides and who is present during the spraying.
With 5,954 residents per km2 and urbanisation class 1 (extremely urban), Leiden is very densely built. You see that in the housing type: 60% of the homes are multi-family and 40% are family houses. With an apartment we often spray a living room, bedrooms and a hall of average size. These are compact spaces with many frames and little unobstructed wall, so accurate masking counts for more than speed.
The owned and rented picture is different from many neighbouring municipalities: 41% is owned and 59% rented. With a rented home the landlord often decides which colours are allowed. We gladly spray in one colour per quote and in light shades, because our price is based on that. That suits a landlord who wants to hand over a home to a new tenant.
The average WOZ value (the municipal property valuation) is 393 thousand euros. Of the homes, 88% are older than 10 years and 12% are new. In many older apartments there is an old layer of latex or textured paint on the wall. We assess that during the advice visit on site, before you pay for something you do not need. You can see roughly what you will pay on our page about the price of latex spraying.
A rule of thumb helps when comparing quotes: add up the m2 of wall and ceiling, choose a package and multiply. In an apartment with many frames and alcoves, masking hours can weigh more than the spraying itself. That is why we always look on site before naming a price. The packages differ in the latex: Basic has scrub class 3, Medium class 2 and High class 1.

Stairwells, ceilings and a lived-in apartment in Leiden
With an apartment the work already starts outside the front door. We discuss beforehand how we bring materials up, whether there is a lift and where the van can stand. In a busy residential area, parking is sometimes the biggest question. Let us know if you need to arrange a permit or parking space for us.
Inside, the order is fixed: items away or in the middle, cover the floors, mask windows and frames, sand walls and ceilings by hand, seal inside corners and then spray two coats. For ceilings with a light cord or smoke detector, we cover those. You can read more about ceilings in particular on the page about spray painting ceilings.
With a VvE, discuss beforehand whether shared areas such as an entrance or stairwell are included. We only spray what falls inside your own home, unless you agree something different with the VvE. Noise and dust are otherwise limited: spraying is quick, so the disruption is short.
If you have a smaller space, for example a studio or a room, we prefer to combine the work with other rooms or with a second home nearby. That keeps the planning costs low for you.
If you have a family house with a staircase, it is about the stairwell and the landing. We spray those places in one pass, so the coat is the same everywhere. An attic room or dormer often comes last, because the paint stays wet longest there when it is warm.

Service area: Leiden and surroundings from Haarlem
The city of Leiden lies about 26.6 km as the crow flies from the centre of Haarlem, at the edge of the service area but within 30 km. For an appointment on site we plan a time slot so that we do not make the trip for one small job, unless you prefer that.
Do you live in a neighbouring municipality? Then we gladly refer you to our pages about spray painting in Leiderdorp and spray painting in Oegstgeest. The work uses the same method, only the housing mix differs per municipality.
You do the preparation yourself: take down wall decorations, push the biggest furniture to the middle and say whether the upstairs neighbours or neighbours need to know anything. We arrange the rest. Afterwards we clear up and walk through the home together for the handover. Want a price indication first? Then request a free quote.

Frequently asked questions about latex spraying in Leiden
Can you spray an apartment in Leiden without the neighbours being bothered?
Spraying goes fairly quickly, so the disruption is short. We mask, screen off the corridor and clear up afterwards. If there is a VvE, let them know when we are coming. Tell us with the quote whether there is a lift and where the van can stand.
What does latex spraying in Leiden cost?
From €7.95 per m2 for Basic, €9.95 for Medium and €11.95 for High. That is based on light colours and 1 colour per quote. The exact price for your home in Leiden is in the quote.
I rent a home in Leiden, may I have it sprayed?
According to CBS, 59% of the homes in Leiden are rented. First ask your landlord for permission in writing. If you are the landlord yourself, you can have a quote made for an empty home, for example when tenants change.
Do you work by appointment in Leiden, even if it is far from Haarlem?
Yes. Leiden is about 26.6 km from the centre of Haarlem, so at the edge of the service area but within 30 km. We schedule a day and come by for advice. Call 06-38048347 or request a quote.
Do I need to empty my home in Leiden?
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.
