If you own a home in Northcote Point, Auckland, you already know the charm and character of the area — from heritage villas to timeless weatherboard homes. At the house painters, we provide specialist painting services designed to protect and enhance these unique properties.

With over 25 years of experience painting in North Shore suburbs, we offer a local, detail-driven service that prioritises quality, durability, and longevity. Whether you’re refreshing your interior or restoring your exterior, we’re here to make your home feel loved again.

Northcote Point is one of Auckland’s most historic and architecturally distinctive suburbs. With its elevated views of the harbour, preserved colonial villas, and tightly knit streetscapes, painting here isn’t just maintenance — it’s stewardship. Many homes in this area are crafted from native timbers, lined with intricate weatherboards, and retain original detailing.

These types of homes demand:

• Gentle yet effective surface preparation to preserve timber
• Heritage-friendly colours and quality paints
• Attention to historical detail and authenticity
• Knowledge of local climate impacts on paint longevity

Using the wrong paint or incorrect preparation can lead to blistering, wood rot, or even damage to irreplaceable materials. That’s why choosing painters with specialist heritage experience is critical.

From modern lounges to historic detailed ceilings, we bring your home to life. Our interior services cover:

• Living Rooms & Bedrooms
• Ceilings, Doors & Trims
• Staircases and Hallways
• Bathrooms, Kitchens & Study’s

We work around your family’s schedule, keeping things clean, quiet, and low-odour. Using Dulux Wash&Wear, Resene Zylone Sheen, or eco-conscious paints upon request, our interior paintwork lasts beautifully through daily life.

Your home’s exterior faces sun, salt, wind, and rain — sometimes all in a day. That’s why we recommend:

• Dulux Weathershield or Resene Sonyx 101
• Specialty primers and flexible coatings
• Stripping back to bare timber where needed
• Master Painters quality workmanship

We also take care of all safely including access to second-storey and hard-to-reach areas with scaffolding. A fresh coat of paint not only protects your home — it elevates its value and charm.

Before a fresh coat of paint goes on, sometimes the old one needs to come off — completely. Northcote Point villas often have multiple paint layers built up over decades, which can:

• Conceal timber rot
• Prevent proper adhesion
• Lead to bubbling, flaking, or uneven finishes and failure

Our team specialises in professional paint stripping that preserves your home’s integrity while preparing it for long-lasting results.

Why It Matters:

• Ensures better primer adhesion
• Reveals hidden defects early
• Achieves a smoother, more elegant finish
• Extends the life of your paintwork

If your home has cracking, blistering, or chalky paint, it might be time for a fresh start — from the timber up.

Following the purchase of this 100-year-old villa in Northcote Point on Auckland’s North Shore the new owners wanted to stamp their personality on their new home with colour.

Like many villas’ of this age, the home needed meticulous preparation to ensure the final finish would last.  With intricate filigree and sash style windows, the house painters attention to detail ensured that the final exterior painting was completed to the very stringent Master Painters quality.

The colour used on the weatherboards was Resene Iron and Resene Alabaster for the windows and trim. The front door was changed to Resene Tuna and the deck to Resene 1/2 Grey Chateau. The house painters also painted the roof which was painted in Sandstone Grey.
