About Us
Peeling paint, chalky siding, or scuffed walls make your home look tired and can let moisture into wood. Otago Painters fixes that with careful prep and professional painting as your interior house painter, exterior house painter, and roof painter in Otago, and we plan work around dry, mild weather so exterior paint cures right.
Our crew has years of hands-on work in Otago and we follow a strict prep plan that includes washing, scraping, sanding, priming bare spots, tight caulking, and lead safe methods when needed before any finish coat. We avoid the mistakes that cause failure such as painting over chalky surfaces, skipping primer on patched areas, working in the wrong temperature or humidity, or laying one heavy coat that flashes and peels, which leads to blistering, leaks, and mould.
You get clear scheduling, daily check ins, and a written scope so you know what is happening and when. We use low odour paints, carry full insurance, and back our work with a written warranty, and if something feels off we fix it fast because that’s how Otago Painters earns trust.
Interior work covers drywall repair, sanding, caulking, priming, and two smooth coats on walls, ceilings, trim, and cabinets with low odour paints so rooms look sharp and you get back to normal fast, while exterior work includes pressure washing, scraping, sanding, spot prime, full caulk, and the right application method with brush, roll, or spray and back roll so the paint film builds right and seals out weather. As your roof painter we clean and treat rust on metal, coat tile or shingles where it makes sense, test adhesion, and use safety harnesses, and we guide you on timing such as repainting exteriors every five to ten years and busy interiors every three to five years or sooner if you see peeling, hairline cracks, water stains, or chalky colour, because skipping prep or painting in the wrong weather leads to early peeling, blistering, mildew, and costly wood or drywall repair.
Most paint jobs fail from rushing prep, painting over chalk, picking the wrong primer, or painting in direct sun or near the dew point, and that leads to peeling within a season, mildew growth, and wood rot, so we plan the weather window and product match before we open a can.
