Painters Auckland - Get A Professional Paint Job

Painting a house, either an interior paint job or an exterior one, is not something we do very often. However, it is one major home improvement task many of us feel we can take on ourselves. How hard can it be, right?

I thought the same thing. After wasting a lot of money and a few weekends trying to paint our house, I was finally convinced tocall a professional painter to finish and fix what I had started.

Pretty humiliating, and embarrassing... and of course, avoidable had I taken the time to educate myself on a few very important painting techniques. Not to mention committing the cardinal sin most novice weekend warriors make... choosing the least expensive paint!

Also, I convinced myself primer was just the paint manufactures way of wringing more money out of you and was an unnecessary step in the painting process... wrong again!

www. PaintersAuckland.com, is my attempt to right a few wrongs. Now, you may

From exterior painting to interior painting, from the tools necessary to do the job properly to the type of paint to use, I will try and share with you what I have learned over the last few months.

If you are a DIY kind of guy or gal we will look at things like color choice, interior and exterior surface preperation, various painting techniques, drywall repair, the proper caulk to use (I stuffed up big time on this one!), the proper painting tools to use including brushes, rollers, sprayers and so much more!

So, if you do not know your latex from your acrylics, or your enamels from your elbows, then please spend a few minutes going through the site.

Painters Auckland is an ever expanding source for the little guy, put together by a little guy just trying to right a few wrongs and make our city a better place! Not to mention one that is beautifully painted with no drips or pieces of cheap roller lint mucking up our fabulous finishes!
