Our services include

  • Repainting existing homes

    A great paint job not only enhances the appearance of your house, but it also protects the surface from wear and the elements. Regular painting prevents rot and mildew and extends the life of your house while preserving its resale value. Painting your house is a vital part of any homeowner's home maintenance regime, and that finding a good painting contractor to do the job is important.

  • Renovating older homes

    Detailed preparation and repairs of worn, deteriorating surfaces prior to painting or wallpapering is so important for success in a great job. All paint jobs using high-quality paints should last you seven to ten years. Conversely, poor workmanship and inexpensive paint will have you repainting in less than four years! In the long run, investing a few more dollars up front can save you the hassle of perpetually painting.

  • Elastomeric Coatings

    Elastomeric Coatings are a flexible waterproofing system. The finish looks like paint but is thicker and will allow the substrate to crack underneath up to a 1mm without any visual appearance. These coatings are normally used on those projects that have had water penetration problems or severe cracking. It is important to use a contractor familiar with the products as preparation is extremely important.

  • Environmentally friendly products

    We use high-quality eco-friendly paints whenever possible, making sure contents contain low or no volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Which meet Green Star NZ VOC requirements (under section IEQ13) and the environmental credential requirements under section MAT10. Site and equipment clean up including recycling waste products are dealt with in keeping within the Eco standards.

  • Environmental Policy

    As a painting company, Rick Anderson Painter & Decorator realises the serious and negative effects that products used in painting can have an effect on the environment. It is therefore my mandate to conduct our company in a manner that reflects our concern for the environment, and utilize the products and resources available to maintain a low-impact, environmentally friendly and sustainable business.

  • Wallpapering

    Picking out wallpaper is more than just colour and print. Always read the label carefully to determine the wallpaper material, how to hang, and the level of care required. The following is a list of terms to look for on a manufacturer's label. The terms will help you narrow down the vast selection available.

    Is the wallpaper:

    • Stain-resistant, Good for kitchens, wet areas and children's rooms.
    • Scrubable.
    • Moisture-resistant? Good for bathrooms.
    • Paintable.
    • Textured, Hides ugly wall imperfections.
  • New homes
