What We Paint
If it suits the surface, we can spray it.
Spray painting works best when the surface, the environment, and the finish requirements all line up, which is why we assess each job properly before deciding whether spray, brush and roller, or a combination will deliver the best result.
Exterior House Spray Painting
Large exterior wall areas are where spray painting often performs best. We spray main body cladding such as weatherboards, plaster, fibre cement, and brick to achieve fast, even coverage across large elevations, then usually follow up with brush and roller work on trims, windows, and more detailed joinery where control matters more.
Fence Spray Painting & Staining
Timber fences are one of the clearest cases for spray application. Long fence runs can be coated much faster than they can be brushed, while still achieving a more uniform finish, which makes spray painting a practical and cost-effective option for fence painting and staining projects across the North Shore.
Roof Spray Painting
Metal roofs benefit from spray application because the profile is repetitive and the surface area is large. With the correct preparation, including water blasting, rust treatment, and priming where needed, spray painting allows us to apply a more even film thickness across corrugated or profiled metal than roller work usually can.
Kitchen Cabinet Spray Painting
Spray painting is the best method for cabinet finishes when the goal is a smoother, more factory-like result. Doors and drawer fronts are prepared carefully, sprayed in controlled conditions, and finished in multiple coats to give a harder, cleaner-looking surface than most brush-applied cabinet repaints can achieve.
Commercial & Industrial Spray Painting
Commercial and industrial spaces often have large ceilings, wide wall runs, or structural surfaces where spray application makes the most sense. On warehouses, factories, retail fit-outs, and other large-scale projects, spray painting can significantly reduce labour time while still delivering a consistent finish across high-volume areas.
New Build Interior Spray Painting
For new build interiors, especially before the home is occupied, spray application can be a very efficient way to coat ceilings and walls cleanly. Empty rooms and fresh surfaces create the right conditions for smooth spray application with less interruption and a cleaner overall workflow through the finishing stage.
Garage Doors & Outbuildings
Garage doors, sheds, carports, and other smaller exterior structures can often be sprayed for a cleaner and more uniform finish than brush application would give. This is especially useful on metal doors or smooth surfaces where brush marks can stand out more obviously.
Concrete, Floors & Retaining Walls
Some concrete and floor-coating jobs also suit spray application, particularly where the goal is speed and even coverage over a larger surface. Retaining walls, block walls, workshop floors, garage floors, and some epoxy systems can all benefit from spray use where the substrate and environment make it practical.
Choosing the right finish - a 60-second guide
Spray Paint Finishes Explained
The sheen level you choose affects how a room looks, feels, and performs. Here's our expert guide to choosing the right finish for every surface in your home.
High reflectivity
Gloss Finish
Best for spray-applied cabinets, doors, trims, and some metal surfaces where you want a harder, smoother, easier-to-clean finish.
Medium-high reflectivity
Semi-Gloss Finish
Best for cabinetry, joinery, garage doors, and other sprayed surfaces that need durability without looking too shiny.
Low reflectivity
Low Sheen Finish
Best for larger sprayed wall or cladding areas where you want a softer look with good durability and less visible surface variation.
Minimal reflectivity
Matt Finish
Best for selected interior spray applications where low reflectivity is preferred and the surface preparation is already very clean.

Our Process
Spray Painting Step by Step
Refined over 17 years and thousands of completed interiors. Consistent quality, minimal disruption.
01
Free Site Assessment
We start by assessing the size of the project, the surrounding environment, and the finish required. That is where we determine if spray is the best method on its own, if brush and roller are more suitable, or whether a combination approach will deliver the best result.
02
Surface Preparation
Spray painting amplifies both quality and flaws, so the preparation has to be right. Depending on the project, that may include washing, sanding, filling, repairing, smoothing, treating mould, and priming so the surface is ready to take a sprayed finish properly.
03
Masking & Site Protection
Before any spraying begins, we protect the surrounding area carefully. Windows, paths, light fittings, vehicles, garden areas, neighbouring surfaces, appliances, and other non-painted elements are masked and covered so overspray stays controlled and the edges stay clean.
04
Spray Setup & Environmental Control
Good spray work depends on the right setup. That includes choosing the correct equipment, tip size, and pressure setting, while also checking weather, wind, airflow, and other environmental conditions that affect how the paint atomises and lands on the surface.
05
Professional Application
Once the setup is right, we apply the product using disciplined spray technique with consistent distance, overlap, and coverage. On some textured surfaces, we also back-roll after spraying so the coating is worked into the substrate properly for better adhesion and longer-term performance.
06
Inspection & Handover
Walk-through under natural light. Touch-ups completed immediately. Written workmanship guarantee and product record provided.
Pricing Guide 2026
Spray painting cost guide.
Spray painting costs depend on the type of surface, the size of the job, the level of preparation involved, and the amount of masking needed before the spraying can even begin.
What Affects Painting Cost?
Surface area: Larger spray jobs usually achieve better rates because the setup time is spread across more area.
Surface condition: Rough, damaged, or flaking surfaces need more preparation before spraying can begin.
Masking complexity: Jobs near neighbours, vehicles, glazing, or landscaping require more time to protect properly.
Paint product: Standard acrylics cost less to apply than epoxy, elastomeric, or other specialist coatings.
Access: Roofs and multi-storey exteriors often need scaffolding, harnesses, or more complex setup.
Environment: Wind exposure or difficult site conditions can affect how and when spray work is carried out.
Number of coats: Primer plus two topcoats is standard, but some colour changes or substrates need more.

Spray Painting FAQs
Is spray painting better than brush and roller?
It depends on the surface and the situation. Spray painting is often better for large, continuous surfaces where speed and even coverage matter, while brush and roller are usually better for detailed trim work, smaller spaces, and areas where more controlled application is needed.
Will spray painting damage my neighbours’ property?
Not when the project is prepared and controlled properly. We mask surrounding areas, monitor wind conditions, and only spray when the environment supports a safe and controlled application.
Can you spray paint kitchen cabinets?
Yes. Cabinet spray painting is one of the best uses of spray application when the preparation is done properly, because it allows for a smoother, more factory-like finish than most brush-applied systems can achieve.
Is spray painting cheaper than brush and roller?
For large surface areas, it often is. Spray application can reduce labour time significantly, but the total cost still depends on the masking, preparation, access, and finish standard required for the job.
Can you spray paint interior walls?
Yes, especially on new builds or larger interior projects where the rooms are empty and the masking can be controlled properly. In occupied homes, interior spray work can still be done, but it usually needs more setup and protection to make it practical.
How long does spray paint take to dry?
Drying time depends on the product, the film thickness, and the weather or site conditions. Most water-based coatings dry relatively quickly, but full cure still takes longer, so we always work to the proper recoating and curing times rather than rushing the process.
Do you spray in winter?
Yes, where the conditions are suitable. We plan around temperature, rain, dew, and other weather factors for exterior work, while interior spray work can usually be carried out year-round with the right setup.
What paint brands do you spray?
We spray Resene and Dulux products, with the exact system chosen based on the surface and the job. That includes exterior paints, interior paints, cabinet finishes, roof coatings, and other specialist products where spray application is suitable.
