Latex spraying Binnenstad-Noord is available from us from €7.95 per m2 (Basic), from €9.95 (Medium) or from €11.95 (High), always in two coats on walls and ceilings. As a latex sprayer we drive to you from Haarlem, about 26.6 km as the crow flies. The exact price is in the quote.
You start with a free on-site visit. We look at the surface, measure the rooms and discuss colour and finish. Because the neighbourhood has many apartments and many rented homes, we take stairwells, neighbours and agreements with a landlord into account.
Binnenstad-Noord according to the CBS: many people on few square metres
According to the CBS figures (Statistics Netherlands, 2024), 15,545 people live in Binnenstad-Noord in 10,730 households, spread over 7,949 homes. That is considerably more households than homes. We do not know exactly what lies behind that, but it fits the picture of a neighbourhood with many small households.
No fewer than 67 per cent of the homes are apartments, against 60 per cent in Leiden as a whole. Family houses account for 33 per cent (municipality: 40 per cent). Only 25 per cent are owner-occupied and 75 per cent are rented, while for the whole city that is 41 and 59 per cent. Of the homes, 95 per cent are older than 10 years and 5 per cent were built in the past 10 years (municipality: 12 per cent).
A neighbourhood almost twice as dense as the rest of Leiden
At 12,281 residents per km2 the density is more than twice the Leiden average (5,954). The average WOZ value (the municipal property valuation) is €379,000, which is €14,000 below the municipal average of €393,000. Many residents therefore calculate carefully. A clear quote without surprises helps.
The CBS neighbourhood division names De Camp, Marewijk and Noordvest here, among others. We work throughout the neighbourhood with the same approach and the same price structure.

Is spray painting cheaper than rolling? A sober look for Binnenstad-Noord
A question we often get: what does it cost to have latex sprayed, and is that cheaper than rolling it yourself? An honest answer is: it depends on your time. Rolling yourself costs you paint, tools and one or more weekends. We come with a machine and, in our experience, work up to 5 times faster than with a roller.
What is in the starting price?
On-site advice, a check of the surface, masking windows and frames, small repairs, sanding by hand, filling inside corners, two coats, clearing up and handover. All prices are based on light colours and one colour per quote. The differences between the packages are explained at scrub class 1, 2 or 3 (the scrub class under NEN-EN 13300 shows how washable the paint is, class 1 being the most washable).
Worked example: 45 m2 ceiling
A ceiling of 45 m2 costs from 45 x €7.95 = €357.75 with Basic, from 45 x €9.95 = €447.75 with Medium and from 45 x €11.95 = €537.75 with High. These are starting prices: the exact quote follows after the on-site visit.
Where you can save
The more rooms you have done at the same time, the more efficiently we can work. An empty home is finished faster than a lived-in one. At affordable latex spraying you can read more about deliberate choices that limit the bill without hurting the quality.
You can also do something yourself: clear away small items and move covering material out of sight. That saves us preparation time.
Finally, people often ask about the drawbacks. To be fair: spraying needs good masking, a dust-free room and a prepared surface. That is where we spend most of our time. Also read pros and cons of latex spraying for the full picture.

Walls and ceilings in apartments, stairwells and rented homes
With so many apartments it often happens that you have only part of a building painted. Then precision counts. We mask frames, doors and floors and protect shared areas. If a hallway or stairwell is up next, we agree working hours with the owners' association (VvE, the association of owners of an apartment building) or the landlord.
Spraying at a change of tenant
With 75 per cent rented homes, moving is normal here. A landlord wants to hand over quickly, a tenant wants the deposit back. In an empty flat, in our experience, a room of 12 to 20 m2 is sprayed in 30 to 60 minutes per coat. So it goes fast, but always allow time for drying and checking.
Rolling or spraying for small rooms?
In a small bathroom or hallway spraying is not always the logical choice. We are happy to tell you so. You can read an overview of the choice at difference between rolling and spraying.
Once the work is planned, you get a clear day schedule from us. You know when we arrive, how long it takes and when you can use the home again.
If you plan to sell or let your home, a fresh, neutral colour can be the first sign that the property is well kept. A white finish is often the quickest route for that too, see having your house painted white. We are happy to help you choose the colour and package.

Frequently asked questions about latex spraying in Binnenstad-Noord
How do I arrange permission for latex spraying in Binnenstad-Noord if I rent?
Ask your landlord in writing, stating the colour you want and the planning. We give you a quote you can forward. That avoids discussion at handover. After that we plan the on-site visit and the work at a time that suits you.
Is latex spraying in Binnenstad-Noord more expensive because the homes are small?
No, you pay starting prices per m2, whatever the neighbourhood. In small rooms masking takes relatively more time. That is why we always make an on-site visit first, so the quote fits your situation. That way you know in advance what you pay.
Can you spray several apartments one after another in Binnenstad-Noord?
Yes, that works well. With several apartments in one building we plan the jobs one after another, so we can reuse materials and covering sensibly. Get in touch for a joint on-site visit, for example for a landlord or owners' association.
What is better in Binnenstad-Noord: rolling or spraying latex?
For large surfaces such as walls and ceilings, spraying gives a more even result and is faster, in our experience up to 5 times. For a small room or a single wall, rolling can be more practical. We give honest advice during the on-site visit.
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 Binnenstad-Noord?
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.
Can I ask for a price via WhatsApp?
Yes. Send a WhatsApp message to +31 6 38048347 with your town, the rooms and the approximate m2; photos help. You can also use the price calculator on this page.
