About Us
Peeling paint, water stains, and sun-faded siding make a home look tired and can let moisture creep in. We are Local Canterbury Painters in Christchurch, and we fix that as your interior house painter, exterior house painter, and roof painter with real prep and solid coatings, so you avoid peeling, blistering, mildew, and early failure.
We have painted hundreds of homes in Christchurch, so we know which products last on stucco, wood, fibre cement, metal, and tile. Our crew follows a step by step process that includes washing, scraping, sanding, repairs, priming, and two finish coats, and a working lead safe plan for homes built before 1978.
You get clear written scope, neat job sites, daily updates, and work that starts and finishes on time, so you are not left guessing. We use proven primers and top line low odour paints, we’re licensed and insured, and we stand behind the work with a workmanship warranty that we honour.
Interior painting covers walls, ceilings, trim, cabinets, and stain blocking, and we patch nail pops, sand between coats, prime stains with shellac or oil based primer, spray and back roll large areas, and use low volatile organic compound paint in bedrooms and nurseries so the air stays clean, while the right sheen in kitchens and baths wipes clean and holds up. Exterior painting calls for washing at the right pressure, scraping to sound paint, spot priming bare wood, caulking joints, replacing rotten boards, and coating when temperatures are between about 50 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit and the surface is dry below about fifteen percent moisture so you avoid peeling and lap marks, and roof painting means safety harness tie offs, rust treatment and metal primer on steel, the right coating for tile or metal, and watching wind and roof temperature to avoid overspray and poor adhesion. Common mistakes are painting over chalk, skipping primer, rushing the dry time, or painting too close to the dew point, and these cause early failure, blotchy colour, and leaks.
