About CoatPro

Just the two of us.
Andrew on every job.

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.

How we work

Four things we hold to on every job.

These are the reasons our exteriors keep looking right — and the reasons we sleep at night.

  1. 01

    The prep is most of the job

    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.

  2. 02

    Never paint over moisture

    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.

  3. 03

    The owner is on your site

    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.

  4. 04

    No subbies, no strangers

    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

Two of us. That's the whole business.

No big crew, no subbies, no rotating strangers through your house. Andrew does the work; Magda keeps it all running.

On the tools

Andrew

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.

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.”
— Andrew, CoatPro

Paint we trust

Resene, Dulux & Wattyl — the good stuff, put on properly.

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.
