A quality paint and plaster finish is what pulls a project together — and poor prep is what lets it down. Wai Build provides professional painting and plastering across the Wairarapa, for homes and commercial premises alike. Whether it’s the finishing touch on a renovation or new build, a full repaint, or plaster repairs, we do the prep properly so the finish looks great and lasts.

Part of a renovation, or a standalone job
Because we handle building, plastering, and painting together, we can take a renovation right through to the final coat without you coordinating separate trades. But we’re also happy to take on painting and plastering as a standalone job — a single repaint, a room that needs re-plastering, or ongoing work across a commercial site.
Why choose Wai Build
- Prep done properly — the difference between a finish that lasts and one that peels
- One team, multiple trades — building, plastering, and painting coordinated together
- Residential and commercial — from a single room to ongoing commercial property maintenance
- Qualified and local — a New Zealand Certified Builders member based in the Wairarapa
How painting and plastering is priced
Every job is different, so we price on the specifics \xe2\x80\x94 the size and condition of the area, how much preparation is needed, the number of coats, and the finish you are after. As a guide, painting is usually priced per square metre or per room, and plastering and repairs are measured and priced to the job. Either way, we give you a clear, written quote up front, so you know exactly what it will cost with no surprises.

Both. We’re happy to take on a one-off repaint or plaster repair, as well as painting and plastering as part of a larger renovation or build.
Can you repair damaged or cracked plaster?
Yes — from small cracks and holes to water-damaged areas and re-skimming tired walls, we can repair and refinish plaster ready for painting.
Do you take on commercial painting contracts?
Yes. Painting is part of our commercial and property maintenance services, including ongoing work across business premises.
