Can you match new walls to the existing paint?

Yes. When a renovation joins new GIB onto existing walls, the trick is getting the new surface prepped and sealed so it takes paint the same way the old one does. We also match your existing colour where you want the new work to disappear into the old.

Will you work in with our builder?

We do it all the time. We talk to your builder about timing, get in once the linework and stopping are ready, and work around the other trades so we are not holding up the programme or getting in their way.

When in the renovation should the painter come in?

Usually after GIB and stopping, before the flooring and fit-off. We prefer to be looped in early so we can lock in a slot, because painting often sits on the critical path near the end of a reno and a last-minute call can stall handover.

Do you paint new joinery and trim too?

Yes. New doors, skirtings, architraves and built-in joinery all get prepped, primed and finished as part of the renovation paintwork.

Reviews

What Christchurch homeowners say

"Intext Plaster & Paint did the painting on our new build in Faringdon. Builder recommended them and I can see why. Clean lines on the ceilings, no overspray on the cedar accents, no callbacks. They were on site exactly when our builder said they would be, which apparently isn't normal."

"Got three quotes for repainting the weatherboard front and side of our place. Intext Plaster & Paint wasn't the cheapest but they walked through the flaking and prep issues no-one else had picked up. Crew turned up when they said, finished a day early, and the finish is genuinely better than what was there originally."

"We had a leak at the back of the house that turned into major exterior repairs, so the interior needed repainting once the builders were done. Intext Plaster & Paint handled the painting and were the easiest part of a stressful process. They flagged a couple of damp patches the builder hadn't fully dried out before they started, and the finish blends in perfectly with the rooms we didn't touch."

FAQs

Common questions.

Yes. We skim coat, level and GIB stop the new linework, sand it back flat, then prime and paint, so it all comes from one crew. That means no finger pointing between a stopper and a painter if something needs sorting.
