Some important tips about paint preparation
Filling and sanding takes time and the
right products. Grime and dust may
not be obvious but surfaces almost
always need cleaning.
Blistering, flaking, and peeling of paint
on wooden surfaces is usually caused
by moisture under the paint. Painting over
stains (for example, caused by water)
can involve special steps, as can
painting surfaces previously treated
with stains and oils.
Water problems need proper fixing
before you paint, and often another
tradesman will need to do this for you.
They are often a sign of a greater
problem and your painter will rely on
you if you say the problem is fixed. If
it's not, and the paint job then fails,
your ability to complain will be limited.
If inside, the problem may be
condensation. Painting in wet areas
requires special steps to be taken.
Don’t skimp on costs if it means
skimping on preparation. The
the cheapest quote may well be because
there is less preparation.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
