Heritage Home Painters Nelson & Tasman
Heritage and character homes require a different approach to modern residential painting. Older properties often feature original timber joinery, decorative detailing and traditional building materials that require careful preparation and attention to detail.
Parnwell Painting has experience working on heritage and character homes throughout Nelson, Richmond and the wider Tasman region. We understand the importance of maintaining the features that make these homes unique while helping to protect them from the effects of weather and time.
Whether you're restoring an original villa, repainting a character home or carrying out ongoing maintenance, we take the time to prepare surfaces properly and complete the work to a high standard.

Our Heritage Painting Approach
Every heritage and character home is different. Older properties often require additional care during preparation and painting, particularly where original materials and architectural features have been preserved.
Our approach is based on careful assessment, thorough preparation and quality workmanship throughout every stage of the project.
Before work begins, we assess the condition of the surfaces and identify any areas that may require additional preparation or repair. This allows us to recommend the most appropriate approach for the property and helps avoid surprises once work is underway.
Preparation is one of the most important parts of any painting project, particularly on older homes. Depending on the condition of the property, this may include cleaning, sanding, filling, timber repairs, paint removal and other preparation work required to achieve a quality finish.
Many heritage homes contain original timber joinery, decorative mouldings and architectural details that contribute to their character. We take care to preserve these features wherever possible while improving the appearance and protection of the property.
Using quality paints and proven painting techniques, we aim to provide a finish that complements the character of the home while helping to protect it from the effects of weather and time.
