By national ratios Zoetermeer supports about 300 full-time carpenter pros — a large market with room for niche specialists, emergency-only operators and franchises alike. Ownership is split — 55 % owner-occupied — so a typical week mixes homeowners with landlords and property managers who buy in volume. The housing stock is old for the country, which pushes repair and replacement demand above the national average.
