About Us
Flaking paint, water stains, and faded siding spread fast and turn into wood rot and bigger bills if you wait. At Otago House Painters in Otago, we fix it right as your interior house painter, exterior house painter, and roof painter with careful prep, tight masking, and coatings matched to each surface so the finish holds up.
Our team brings strong skill from hundreds of local projects and we stick to the steps that make paint last, including washing, scraping, sanding, repairing, caulking, priming, and careful application, and we follow lead safe methods for homes built before 1978. Skipping any of that leads to early peeling, blistering, mildew returning through fresh colour, and seams that leak, so we slow down at prep and then move fast when it is time to coat.
Your project comes with a written scope, daily updates, and a clean finish that lasts, plus a workmanship warranty we actually answer. We use top paints matched to Otago weather, prep until surfaces pass a tape test, and apply two true coats over primer, never over chalk or mildew, and never thinned.
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.
Our roof painter work focuses on safe access, rust treatment, and reflective or waterproof roof coatings for metal or tile roofs to cut heat and extend roof life. We never paint over mildew, skip primer on glossy or chalky surfaces, or paint in direct midday sun because those shortcuts cause flashing, blistering, and early failure.
