How we work
Clear communication from colour consult to final touch-ups.
Expect honest timelines, tidy sites, and updates after every stage so you always know what is next.
Initial chat
Call or message with a quick outline of your surfaces and timing. We organise a visit to check condition and access.
Colour + quote plan
Receive a clear scope covering prep, product systems, and scheduling. Need swatches? We bring Resene / Dulux advice.
