About Us
Peeling paint, water stains, and scuffed walls make a good home look tired and leave wood and stucco exposed, and rushed paint jobs without preparation cause early peeling, blotchy sheen, and mildew. We fix the root problems, carry out careful preparation, and apply the right coatings, and at Canterbury House Painters in Selwyn District we handle interior house painter projects, exterior house painter work, and roof painter coatings that hold up.
Our crew brings years of hands-on painting in Selwyn District, and we do it the right way with washing, scraping, sanding, gap caulking, stain blocking, moisture checks, and primer that matches the surface. We keep dust down, cover floors and landscaping, follow lead safe practices on older homes, we paint only within the right temperature and humidity range so coatings cure right, and we plan around Selwyn District weather windows.
You get finishes that look right and last because we match products to the surface and the space, then apply them the correct way and let them cure. You also get clear pricing, on time starts, clean work areas, friendly colour help when you want it, and a solid workmanship promise you can count on, and most exteriors in Selwyn District need repainting every five to ten years so we review your home and give a schedule that makes sense.
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.
