About Us
Peeling paint, chalky siding, or scuffed walls make your home look tired and can let moisture into wood. Southland House Painters fixes that with careful prep and professional painting as your interior house painter, exterior house painter, and roof painter in Invercargill, and we plan work around dry, mild weather so exterior paint cures right.
We have a steady crew that follows a proven method that starts with washing, scraping, sanding, caulking, spot priming, and a true two coat finish with back rolling where it is needed. We use top grade primers and paints that match your surfaces and the local weather, and we avoid the shortcuts that cause flashing, lap marks, peeling, and early failure.
You get clear pricing in writing, a simple schedule, and a tidy site at the end of each day. We test colours with samples, match primers and topcoats to the surface, and finish with a walk-through and a workmanship warranty you can count on.
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.
