The houses in Fletcher
Modern exterior materials can look similar while having different coating requirements. If you know the cladding brand or have information from the build, include it in the enquiry so product guidance can be checked rather than inferred from a photograph.
Our Fletcher painters also need to know which surfaces are original and which have been repaired or added. A feature panel, upper storey and rendered ground floor may need different preparation even where the final colours will form a single scheme.

What we look at first in Fletcher
The age of a house does not establish whether its paint remains sound. Compare the condition of cladding edges, broad rendered walls and shaded sections before deciding what needs repainting.
Fibre cement cladding
Edges and joints should be assessed against the cladding manufacturer's instructions. Some gaps allow water to drain or cladding to move, so they should not automatically be filled, so identifying the product matters before deciding which details need sealing, repair or a compatible coating.
Rendered walls
Fine cracks and paint that leaves powder on your hand on render deserve a closer look. Preparation depends on whether only the paint is peeling or the render beneath it is cracked or loose, and cracks that keep widening need investigation rather than repeated filling beneath a new colour.
The bush edge
Leaves, dirt or mould may collect where vegetation shades the building. Show us the affected surfaces and any gutters that overflow nearby, because cleaning alone will not resolve a continuing water source or a damaged roof drainage detail.

Questions people ask painters in Fletcher
Can you paint fibre cement cladding?
Provide the material details where possible. Many fibre cement products can be coated, but the existing finish, product instructions and condition of the sheet should guide preparation rather than treating all cladding as interchangeable.
Our two storey house needs the upper floor done. Do you need scaffold?
The choice of ladders, scaffold or other equipment depends on wall height, uneven ground and the space beside the house. Include photographs showing the wall from ground level, with paths and fences visible, so any required equipment can be considered as part of the proposed work.
How long should a new build wait before its first repaint?
Inspect the coating for fading, cracks, chalking and loose areas instead of relying on a fixed age. Talk with our painters in Fletcher about the parts showing wear now and whether those surfaces can be addressed without repainting sound areas unnecessarily.
