Weatherboard Painting Services in
Hawke's Bay

Restore the beauty and integrity of your weatherboard home with expert exterior painting, tailored for Hawke’s Bay’s harsh climate.

Weatherboard cladding is a timeless feature of many homes across Napier, Hastings, Havelock North, and surrounding areas. But while it offers classic street appeal, it’s also highly exposed to the elements. Over time, Hawke’s Bay’s intense UV rays, seasonal rain, and salt-laden coastal air can lead to peeling paint, warped boards, fading colours, and even water damage.

At Paint My Space, we specialise in professional weatherboard painting that not only restores your home’s appearance — but protects it long term.

Why Weatherboards Need Regular Repainting

Unlike brick or solid plaster, weatherboards are more susceptible to wear and tear. In Hawke’s Bay, repainting is often needed every 5–8 years, depending on your location, sun exposure, and previous paint quality. Without regular maintenance, paint can crack, blister, or flake — exposing the timber beneath to moisture and UV damage.

If left untreated, this can lead to costly repairs, especially for homes in coastal suburbs like Westshore, Haumoana, or Te Awanga.

Our Approach to Exterior Weatherboard Painting

We don’t just paint over the problem — we fix it properly. Our painting process includes:

We start by inspecting your weatherboards for damage, movement, and moisture issues. We repair or replace damaged boards as needed, and ensure surfaces are dry, clean, and smooth.

Flaking paint is removed, and surfaces are thoroughly sanded to create a clean base. If needed, we use stripping tools or water blasting for full paint removal.

Exposed timber is sealed with a high-performance primer to prevent future moisture ingress and ensure strong adhesion of the topcoat.

We apply premium exterior paints designed to handle Hawke’s Bay’s harsh UV and coastal conditions. Our chosen products resist cracking, fading, and peeling — even in the hottest or wettest seasons.

We pay close attention to corners, joints, and weatherboard overlaps, ensuring every surface is fully protected and beautifully finished.
