Exterior painting
Built to protect, made to last.
A good exterior paint job is more than a fresh colour. It is the barrier that keeps New Zealand weather out of your weatherboards, fascias and joinery. We wash, scrape and prime properly before a single top coat goes on, then finish with coatings chosen for the way your home is exposed. The result looks sharp from the street and protects the timber underneath for years.

Thorough washing and prep, sound sealing of gaps and joins, and quality coatings mean the finish holds its colour and keeps protecting the home long after the job is done. You get straight lines, tidy edges, and a crew that respects your property and your neighbours.
Common questions
When is the best time to paint a house exterior in New Zealand?
Dry, settled weather gives the best result. We plan the job around the forecast so coats go on and cure properly.
How long does an exterior repaint take?
It depends on the size of the home and how much prep is needed. A typical single-storey house is a few days to a week.
Do you prepare bare and flaking timber?
Yes. Scraping, sanding and priming bare or flaking areas is part of every exterior job. Good prep is what makes the finish last.
