Interior painting in Zaandam

A timber house moves with you

The well-known Zaan houses are made of wood, inside as well. You find timber walls, boarding and ceilings made of planks. Wood expands with damp and shrinks when the heating comes on, and you see that in small gaps and seams. A rigid coat of paint will crack there sooner or later. So interior timber like this should not get wall paint, but a primer with a lacquer or opaque wood paint that can move with the wood. Anyone living in such a house knows that the character lies in exactly those details. You can read what else Oranje Kwast does in the city under painter in Zaandam.

Spraying in Poelenburg, Peldersveld and the new centre

Districts such as Poelenburg and Peldersveld have many flats and family homes from the 1960s, with concrete ceilings and plastered walls. Around Inverdan, the renewed town centre, many new homes have been added instead. In both cases you are dealing with large, straight surfaces, and spraying with latex is often the quickest route to an even finish there.

That is how it went with the interior repaint in Zaandam: walls and ceilings were sprayed, the latex dried quickly and the rooms could soon be used again.

What to look out for in a Zaandam home

• Timber boarding and frames that need a flexible lacquer
• Concrete ceilings with unevenness that is filled and sanded first
• Crooked walls in old houses, which make crisp masking extra exacting
• Large new-build walls that can be sprayed in one go

Precisely because homes in Zaandam vary so much, every job starts with a look rather than a standard price. Wondering whether your ceiling is suitable for spraying? Read more about spraying a ceiling.

How our painter goes about it
