Three out of four homes in this neighbourhood are family houses and more than half are owner-occupied. These are often homes with a staircase, a landing and several bedrooms. Exactly the places where a sprayer saves a lot of time and where a neat finish makes the difference.
Three quarters family houses: the Stevenshofdistrict according to the CBS
The CBS figures (Statistics Netherlands, 2024) show 10,705 residents, 4,785 households and 4,702 homes for the Stevenshofdistrict. The average WOZ value (the municipal property valuation) is €410,000, which is €17,000 above the municipal average of €393,000.
It is a neighbourhood of houses with their own ground: 74 per cent are family houses and 26 per cent apartments. For Leiden as a whole that is 40 and 60 per cent. Tenure is split 56 per cent owner-occupied and 44 per cent rented (municipality: 41 and 59 per cent). Of the homes, 99 per cent are older than 10 years and 1 per cent were built in the past 10 years, against 12 per cent in the city.
Almost average in density
At 5,764 residents per km2 the neighbourhood is close to the city average of 5,954. The CBS places it in urbanisation class 2 (the city itself: class 1). That fits a residential neighbourhood with mostly own front doors, somewhat quieter than a city centre.
According to the CBS neighbourhood division, this includes Schenkwijk, Kloosterhof and Dobbewijk-Noord, among others. You only get a clear quote after the on-site visit, because every home is different.

What is latex spraying and what does it cost for a terraced house in the Stevenshofdistrict?
With latex spraying, wall paint is atomised at high pressure by an airless machine and applied evenly to the wall or ceiling. That gives you an even surface without roller marks. You can find an explanation at how latex spraying works.
What does a terraced house of 135 m2 cost?
Take a home with 135 m2 of walls and ceilings. The Basic package costs from 135 x €7.95 = €1,073.25, Medium from 135 x €9.95 = €1,343.25 and High from 135 x €11.95 = €1,613.25. These are starting prices, based on light colours and one colour per quote.
Worked example: 135 m2 in three packages

| Basic | 135 x €7.95 | €1,073.25 |
| Medium | 135 x €9.95 | €1,343.25 |
| High | 135 x €11.95 | €1,613.25 |

Walls and ceilings after a renovation or before a sale in the Stevenshofdistrict
Because 56 per cent of the homes are owner-occupied, renovation and sale are normal moments for a new coat of paint. After an extension, a new kitchen or a refurbished bathroom you want the walls to match the whole again. A fresh coat of latex is then the quickest means.
Spraying is also handy for an interim refresh, for example when the children have left home and you want to arrange a bedroom differently. You can choose per room and set the pace. If you combine several rooms at once, we work more efficiently and you pay less for preparation than if you split the work into pieces.
Ceilings: the underrated part
A ceiling stands out most when it is yellowed or shows roller marks. With a sprayer you get an even finish. Read more at spray painting ceilings.
Drawbacks and trade-offs
Spraying needs thorough preparation. Furniture has to go or be covered, floors and frames masked. For small repairs rolling is sometimes handier. You can find the pros and cons at a glance at disadvantages of latex spraying.
Planning around a move
In our experience a family house of about 120 m2 is often finished in 1 to 2 days, including preparation. An empty home is fastest. So preferably plan the work after the removal van has left and before the new occupants arrive. That way you do not have to work around furniture.
If you are in a lived-in home, it is smart to work room by room. We mask the room, spray two coats and let the paint dry. According to the data sheet for Sigma Air Pure Supermatt, the paint is dry after about 1 hour and can be overpainted after 4 hours at 23 degrees and 50 per cent humidity. So you can often be sitting in a finished room by the evening, although we advise letting it air overnight.
You pay only after completion and after we have checked the work together, by iDEAL payment link, debit card at the van or on invoice.

Frequently asked questions about latex spraying in Stevenshofdistrict
What does it cost to have latex sprayed in a terraced house in the Stevenshofdistrict?
With 135 m2 of walls and ceilings, Basic costs from €1,073.25, Medium from €1,343.25 and High from €1,613.25. These are starting prices based on light colours and one colour per quote. The exact price is in the quote.
Can you spray only the bedrooms in the Stevenshofdistrict?
Yes, you can choose which rooms are done. You pay the starting price per m2 for the area we do. For a smaller job we discuss during the free on-site visit whether spraying or rolling is more practical.
How does wall spraying in the Stevenshofdistrict work when children are at home?
We prefer to work in a room you are not using for the time being. We keep children and pets away while the machine is running and the paint is still wet. Plan floor by floor, then you can stay in the rest of your home.
Is latex spraying in the Stevenshofdistrict a smart move before a sale?
An even, light finish makes the home look cared for and appeals to many viewers. Spraying is quick to plan for that, especially in an empty home. Discuss your sale date with us, and we will look together at a suitable schedule.
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 Stevenshofdistrict?
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.
