Painter & plasterer
Does all the painting and plastering himself — interiors, exteriors, spray work and plaster. Six years on Auckland houses. The person who quotes your job is the one who turns up, preps it, and finishes it.
About CoatPro
CoatPro is Andrew and Magda. Andrew does the painting and plastering — six years on Auckland houses — and he's on every job himself. Magda runs the bookings and the day-to-day, so there's always someone to pick up the phone. No big crew, no subbies: just the two of us.
Two-person outfit

How we work
These are the reasons our exteriors keep looking right — and the reasons we sleep at night.
01
What goes on before the top coat matters more than what comes after. We wash, sand, fill, prime and dust the place down properly every time — not just when the schedule's kind to us.
02
Auckland weather hides damp under sound paint. We test it, dry it out, then wait. A coat over wet timber is a job we'll only be back to fix — so we don't rush it.
03
Andrew does the painting and plastering himself and writes every quote. The person who prices your job is the one who turns up and does it — you're never handed off to a salesperson.
04
It's Andrew on your job start to finish. Nothing subbed out, no new faces rotating through your house, and no 'who painted this corner?' six months later.
The team
No big crew, no subbies, no rotating strangers through your house. Andrew does the work; Magda keeps it all running.

First point of contact
Magda
Bookings & admin
Looks after the calls, quotes and scheduling — usually who you'll talk to first. She keeps every job on track and the diary honest, so Andrew can stay on the tools where he's most use.
“We're a new name, not new to the trade. As a new outfit, our reputation is the only thing we've got — so the work has to speak for itself. That's the deal.”
Paint we trust
We hold trade accounts at all three, so you get the full range to pick from — and the right system for the surface, not just whatever's on the shelf. We bring the fan-decks to your place and help you settle on the colour.
Colours we reach for
The heritage greens, warm whites and oxide-red doors the central villas were built to wear.
