Exterior painting plays an important role in protecting your property and maintaining its appearance over time. AR Plus approaches every job with thorough preparation, weather-aware timing, and a clean, professional finish that’s built to last.
From fences and fascias to cladding and commercial facades, we deliver high-standard work with long-term value in mind.
AR Plus is a certified Resene Eco.Decorator — a recognised standard for quality, sustainability, and safe painting practices. This certification reflects our approach to every exterior project, from product selection to waste disposal and site cleanliness. It’s one more way we bring confidence, care, and long-term performance to your exterior surfaces.
Exterior surfaces — especially cladding, soffits, and roofing materials from before the mid-1980s — may contain asbestos. Attempting DIY prep work like water blasting, sanding, or scraping paint could disturb those fibres and release them into the air or surrounding soil.
Do not proceed with prep work if you're unsure of the materials. It’s not worth the health risk.
AR Plus can assist with assessing risk and referring you for testing if needed. If asbestos is confirmed, we are licensed to remove it before painting begins — safely and legally.
