Timber Joinery Painting & Restoration in
Hawke's Bay

Preserve the character and value of your home with expert care for your exterior timber joinery — from windows to doors, trims, and frames.

Timber joinery is a defining feature of many homes throughout Hawke’s Bay, particularly in Napier, Hastings, and Havelock North, where wooden windows, doors, fascias, and trims give homes a timeless aesthetic. However, our region’s varied climate — from strong sun exposure to coastal moisture and cool winters — puts these timber features at risk.

Over time, timber joinery can suffer from peeling paint, cracking, swelling, and rot. Without regular maintenance, these issues can worsen — leading to more expensive repairs and even replacement. At Paint My Space, we offer professional timber joinery painting and restoration services designed to revive the appearance of your home while offering long-term protection.

Why Timber Joinery Needs Protection in Hawke’s Bay

Exterior timber joinery is constantly exposed to the elements. UV rays cause paint to fade and peel, while moisture — especially in coastal areas like Bay View, Clive, or Te Awanga — can lead to warping, mould, and timber decay.

Neglected joinery doesn’t just affect how your home looks — it can compromise the function of windows and doors, allow water ingress, and contribute to structural damage.

That’s why early restoration and correct repainting are so important.

Our Timber Joinery Painting & Restoration Process

We take a detail-focused approach to repairing and refinishing timber joinery, ensuring both visual appeal and weather protection.

We carefully inspect your timber joinery to identify any signs of rot, swelling, loose putty, or surface damage. If repairs are needed, we’ll talk you through the options and provide honest advice.

Where rot or cracking is present, we use flexible fillers, sealants, and if needed, minor timber replacement. All damaged or decayed areas are removed and treated to prevent future issues.

We strip away flaking paint and sand surfaces smooth to allow for proper adhesion of primer and topcoats. This is critical for achieving a long-lasting, even finish.

We apply high-quality, tannin-blocking primers to seal the wood and protect against moisture and UV rays.

Finally, we apply premium exterior paint or wood coatings formulated specifically for timber. These products resist peeling, cracking, and fading — even in exposed locations.
