"For me the most important aspect of Auckland City Painters work was the ease of communication, the professionalism and the calm they bring to the job."

"They finished within the timeframe they had stated, which was so important for us — as a rental property, we needed to get it back on the market as soon as possible, and Auckland City Painters were fantastic at getting the work done well and on time."

"The previous three times I can remember having the house painted, we used a different firm — and I must say, their teams weren’t as professional, competent, or diligent as the Auckland City Painters team was."

This Mount Eden villa on Grange Road carried the challenges typical of Auckland’s character homes, paint delamination, building repairs needed before painting, and intricate original detailing demanding patience. We recommended a trusted builder for the structural work, then carefully prepared the double-hung windows, fretwork, and balustrades before stripping and repainting. Weatherboards were finished in Resene Lumbersider Grey Chateau, windows in Quarter White Pointer, and the door in Lustacryl Black, a repaint built to last.
This classic villa on New North Road, near Kingsland station and Eden Park, had a north-east elevation showing serious delamination, with old lead-based coatings visible beneath peeling paint. We coordinated scheduling with the homeowners’ builder and roofing contractor, then stripped back the affected weatherboards and timber windows to bare timber. Weatherboards were finished in Resene Lumbersider Tana, joinery in Lustacryl Rice Cake, and the door in Enamacryl Gordons Green, the client’s review called the result outstanding.
Wendell Property engaged us to repaint the exterior of their Grey Lynn office, a classic weatherboard villa on Williamson Avenue, near Grey Lynn Park. Years of sun and coastal air had caused delamination, addressed with proper paint stripping before priming rather than painting over the failing areas. As a working office, we coordinated closely around the client’s builder and roofing team on site. Weatherboards were finished in Resene White Pointer, Wendell has since brought us onto their wider portfolio.
This large three-storey villa on Gladstone Road, Parnell was undergoing a major renovation when the homeowners chose us for the interior painting after seeing our restoration work at St Patrick’s Cathedral. We carried out a complete interior repaint in a contemporary white scheme using Resene Alabaster, coordinating closely with the renovation builders throughout. A standout detail was the Porter’s Rust Effect finish on the garage door. The project won two Gold Awards at the Master Painters Awards for Character Interior and Special Effects.
Yes, we specialise in working on character villas and bungalows. Our team takes extra care to preserve heritage features like decorative trims, mouldings, and timber detailing while achieving a modern, long-lasting finish.
Yes. If we find damaged or rotten timber and you don’t already have someone, we can arrange for our building contractor to take care of it, or recommend a trusted builder. We’ll always discuss the options and costs with you first.
Many villas have layers of older paint that may need assessing, and in some cases full or partial stripping. If lead-based paint is present, we follow strict safety and environmental procedures to protect your family, our team, and your property.
This depends on the size, condition, and level of prep required, but full villa exteriors can take anywhere from one to several weeks. We’ll always provide a clear timeline as part of your free quote.
Yes, all our villa painting work is covered by our personal 5-Star Guarantee, and as Registered Master Painters, eligible projects can also be backed by the Master Painters Workmanship Guarantee.
The timing for repainting your house interiors depends on factors like wear and tear, damage, changing trends, and the need to brighten your space. As a general guide:
If you’re unsure, we’re happy to assess your property and provide expert advice.
Yes, we stand by our work. All our painting projects are covered by our personal 5-Star Guarantee, along with the Master Painters 5-Year Workmanship Guarantee, giving you complete peace of mind.
Yes! Our trade accounts enable huge savings over the normal retail cost of paint and you won’t have to do any running around when we need more.
No, we take care of all the scaffolding for the project. For larger or tricky areas, we work with professional scaffold contractors to ensure everything is set up safely and efficiently.
We can handle minor building repairs essential to the painting process, such as fixing cracks, replacing rotten weatherboards, and repairing damaged plaster or gib. For larger structural repairs, we can recommend trusted professionals to ensure the work is completed to a high standard before painting begins.
Our rule of thumb is however many coats are specified by the paint manufacturer is what we will apply, because by doing anything less is to void your paint warranty. Generally, this means a 3-coat system for new work and a 2-coat system for repaints.
While we don’t offer very small touch-ups, such as painting a single wall or door, we’re happy to take on smaller-scale projects like painting a full room. Get in touch, and we’ll let you know if your project is the right fit.
