What Good Preparation Looks Like for Otara and Otahuhu Homes
Preparation is what separates a paint job that lasts from one that peels within 2 years. For older Otara and Otahuhu homes, professional preparation includes:
- Washing the surface with a mould-killing solution to treat any biological growth
- Sanding loose, flaking, and chalking paint back to a sound surface
- Filling cracks, holes, and gaps before priming
- Priming bare timber and repaired areas before topcoats
- Masking adjacent surfaces for clean edges

A professional painter will not sand these surfaces without prior asbestos testing. Always confirm this before any painting work begins on an older South Auckland property. |
