About Us
Flaking paint, tired walls, or a chalky roof coating look rough and can let water in. Otago House Painters in Otago fixes that as your interior house painter, exterior house painter, and roof painter with careful prep, safe access, and the right primers and paints for each surface.
Our team has years of hands-on work in Otago homes and we know which primers and coatings last in our sun, wind, and rain. We follow a full prep routine with washing, scraping, sanding, repairs, caulking, and priming, and we correct common mistakes like coating over chalky walls or damp wood, which cause peeling, blistering, leaks, and mould.
Many paint jobs fail early because of rushed washing, wrong primer, painting over damp wood, or spraying without back rolling, which leads to peeling, blistering, and mildew. We avoid those traps with tested methods, clear pricing in writing, daily updates, careful jobsite protection, and start and finish times that we stick to.
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.
