We absolutely do. We believe in getting the job done right the first time and stand by the quality of our craftsmanship. For your ultimate peace of mind, we offer a 2-year workmanship warranty on all our paintwork. We also use premium brands such as Dulux and Resene, which offer manufacturer warranties up to 10 and 15 years when applied according to their specifications.

As part of the quoting process, we carefully assess the condition of the existing paint. In some cases, older coatings can appear sound but may have underlying weaknesses that are not visible until later. Stripping back to bare substrate provides the most durable, long term result. However we understand this is a significant additional investment and not always the preferred option.

If you choose NOT to proceed with a full strip back, we will still prepare and repaint the surface using best practices. However the overall lifespan of the new paint system will depend on the stability of existing underlying coatings. Regardless, you remain fully protected under the Consumer Guarantees Act, which ensures our workmanship is carried out with reasonable care and skill. We are always happy to discuss preparation options with you so you can make the best decision for your home, budget and long- term goals.

Yes! We are incredibly proud to follow the Resene Eco-Decorators protocol. This protocol recognises environmentally responsible, quality-focused painting practices.

We believe in 100% transparency so you never have to worry about surprise costs. Once we understand your vision, we'll provide a clear price for your project. As the job progresses, we check in with you regularly and invoice on a weekly basis. This gives you complete visibility into exactly how much work has been completed and what you are being charged for at every step of the way.

Not at all, we take care of everything! Perfect paintwork begins with a perfect surface. Our crew handles all the heavy lifting, including wallpaper removal, texture repair, dings and dent repair, and skim plastering. We make sure your walls looking great, as per your required level (discussed at time of pricing) before we even open a tin of paint.

We certainly can! The Northland sun can be tough on exteriors, but our skilled team can breathe new life into them. We paint all exterior surfaces including weatherboard, brick, masonry, stucco etc. We also expertly paint roofs, stain or paint decks and fences, and refresh gutters, doors, and windows.

Interior: We ask that you remove all small and personal items from the rooms being painted. Larger items like beds, couches, and heavy cabinets can stay where they are. We simply need enough space to safely place a ladder between the furniture and the walls. Please also take down any pictures, mirrors, hooks, and nails from the walls so we can get straight to work.

Exterior: If you could please trim back any plants, bushes, or trees around the house, that will give us clear access to the exterior walls. We also ask that you move any outdoor furniture, building materials, or other items that may be in the way before we start. This helps us work safely and keeps your project on schedule.

It’s easy! You can fill out the contact form right here on our website, letting us know a bit about your interior, exterior, new build, renovation, or wallpapering project. Alternatively, if you’d prefer to chat with us directly, you can give me a call at 021 800 634. We’d love to hear from you and learn how you want your home or business refreshed!
