About Us
Flaking paint, water stains, and faded siding spread fast and turn into wood rot and bigger bills if you wait. At Canterbury House Painters in Selwyn District, 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 crew brings proven skill from hundreds of local projects in Selwyn District, and we do the steps many skip, like a full wash to remove chalk, scrape and sand to a solid edge, repair minor rot, caulk gaps, spot prime bare areas, and apply two proper coats. We plan around weather and watch surface temperature and dew point, because paint on hot or damp surfaces fails early with blistering, cracking, and peeling.
You get clear pricing, firm start dates, daily updates, and a clean jobsite that your neighbours appreciate. We carry full insurance, offer a written workmanship warranty, help with colour and finish choices, and use low and zero volatile organic compound options that are easier on families and pets.
Interiors get hole repair, caulking, sanding, priming, and the right sheen for each room so kitchens wipe clean and bedrooms look calm. Exteriors get washing, scraping, wood repair where needed, spot priming of bare areas, full caulking at cracks, and paint applied in the right weather window to fight sun and moisture while boosting curb appeal, and our roof painter work includes cleaning, rust treatment, sealing fasteners, and acrylic or elastomeric coatings on metal, concrete, or tile, and we don’t paint asphalt shingles because that can trap moisture and void the manufacturer warranty.
Most paint jobs fail from rushing prep, painting over chalk, picking the wrong primer, or painting in direct sun or near the dew point, and that leads to peeling within a season, mildew growth, and wood rot, so we plan the weather window and product match before we open a can.
