About Us
Faded walls, peeling trim, or a streaky roof make your home look tired and invite water and sun damage that grows fast. We fix that with careful prep and durable finishes as your interior house painter, exterior house painter, and roof painter in Otago, and Otago Painters handles small projects or full repaints without fuss.
Our lead painters have years of real field work and it shows in the details you can see up close. We wash, scrape, sand, prime, and caulk the right way, we schedule exteriors when the forecast is dry and temperatures sit between about 50 and 90 degrees, we avoid direct sun to cut lap marks, and we follow lead safe methods in homes built before 1978.
You get clear pricing, a written scope, real start and finish dates, and colour help with sample swatches so you see it before we roll it. We use low volatile organic compound coatings when possible, we test for moisture before we paint, and we stand behind our work with a written workmanship guarantee, so you aren’t stuck fixing the same problem twice.
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.
