Types of services that a professional painter provides

Whether you’re looking for commercial or residential painters, you'll probably want to know what services they provide. Here's a quick rundown of the different types of house painting services that these professionals are likely to offer.

Interior painting

Interior painting services cover all areas of the home, including walls, ceilings, trims, and cabinetry from start to finish. This service focuses on achieving a clean, professional finish with attention to detail, ensuring even coverage and smooth lines.

Exterior painting

Exterior painting services include treating and painting weatherboards, fences, decks, and roofs, using high-quality paints and coatings designed to protect against the elements, including UV rays, rain, and humidity common in New Zealand.

Paint sourcing and selection

Painters have established relationships with paint suppliers and can often source paints and discounted rates saving you a decent amount of money on your budget. They will also make recommendations based on the type of surface you’re painting on and the environmental conditions to which they’ll be exposed.

Paint removal and prep

If old paint needs to be removed from your home’s exterior, painters will often offer this service before the actual painting begins. There are companies that do this job exclusively but many find that working with the same professional is easier, more convenient and cost effective.

Repair and treatment services

Many painters handle water damage repairs, mould and mildew treatment, and other surface issues to prepare walls and surfaces for painting, ensuring a healthy and clean environment inside the home. This is a common requirement of many residential painting projects.

Maintenance and touch-up services

Ongoing maintenance painting and touch-up services help homeowners keep their properties looking fresh over time, addressing wear and tear, fading, or minor damage to maintain the home's overall appearance.

The advantages of hiring a skilled professional painter

Highly skilled professional painters are extremely beneficial to a building or renovation project in New Zealand and can undertake a wide range of painting assignments in residential and commercial settings. Experienced painters know exactly how to deliver on time and within budget and can anticipate likely disruptions and challenges to help with your plans. They are very dependable and their work is far more likely to stand the test of time as it’ll be done with the situation and conditions in mind. Most importantly, it takes the stress out of the job itself, a benefit that cannot be understated.

How to choose the best house painters for your project?

Choosing the best painters in New Zealand for your project is a big decision. Not only do you want to make sure that your painter is good at what they do, but you also want one that can deliver on time and budget. The painters on ArchiPro are included for their overall excellence, making the first steps in your journey that much easier. From their ArchiPro profiles, you’ll want to look at examples of their previous work to see if there are projects similar to yours, a list of services they offer and customer testimonials to help you narrow the list down. When making enquiries, you’ll want to ask questions like the following:

• Do you have a portfolio or record of past work in New Zealand I can look at?

Other professionals you may need for your project

If you’re undertaking a full home renovation, then there are a few other professionals that you may need for your project. Plasterers and renderers, for example, are vital for any plastering work that needs to be done or if you’re working with materials like stucco. Cladding contractors, for those working with other building materials, will also be key with respect to supply and installation. Finally, tilers will bring style and protection to the wet areas of your home in a fast and efficient way.
