Colour Consultation

We have the skills, experience and ability to assist anyone when selecting colour schemes

We all have colour swatches on us and we can also provide photo renders to show you how it may look. Our team works closely with clients to understand the building, its function, and the desired outcome. We carefully assess existing surfaces, surrounding environments, and lighting conditions before recommending colour schemes that are both practical and visually effective.

Why professional colour consultation matters

Selecting the right colours is critical to a building’s appearance, performance, and longevity. Our colour consultation service ensures every choice is made with purpose, considering architectural design, surface materials, lighting, branding requirements, and long-term maintenance.

On-site colour swatches are used to review tones in real conditions, and where required, photo renders can be provided to help visualise the finished result. This structured approach provides clarity, confidence, and certainty before painting begins.

Clevedon Primary School

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Interior Painting

Engaged by a local construction company, CPL was asked to paint 4 interior classrooms that were being converted into an open plan design. It was a funny coincidence that a CPL painter was actually a student at the school many years ago so he was happy and proud to be a part of the project.

Chapel Downs School

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Exterior Painting

Over the last 5 years CPL has visited the school each summer and chipped away at painting the exterior. With regular maintenance the school will keep looking fresh for years to come. CPL washes and maintains handrails and doors posts regularly. These are the items that get the most wear and can be inexpensive to up-keep.

Bucklands Beach School

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Interior Painting

CPL has been engaged by Bucklands Beach Primary on multiple occasions to repaint interior parts of the school. Many of the ceilings had water damage so CPL primed and plastered to repair them and paint them in the school holidays.

Botany Downs School

Full wash down of external elevations made it easier to assess the painting for its maintenance.

Bairds Mainfreight School

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Interior, Exterior & Roof Painting

This was the first time in CPL history – or any known history for that matter, that a painting company was asked to paint the entire interior, exterior and roofs of a school all at once. Of course CPL was happy to oblige. It did take around 12 months to complete but now the school is looking fresh until the next time.

Ardmore School

We painted the restaurant NEO when they had the roof top tenancy. Queens Arcade is one of our favourite places to paint.

Dressmart, Onehunga

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Exterior Painting

During the Covid lockdown of 2020 many large retail stores and services were closed to the public. This gave the owners an opportunity to do some much needed maintenance and freshening up. CPL had quoted painting work at Dressmart for years but the constraints of shopping hours made it difficult to find a window to carry out the work. With the shops empty and the streets cleared, CPL had the “run of the mill” to complete the project. CPL washed, prepared and painted the entire exterior of the Dressmart Onehunga during the lockdown. CPL utilised a number of different elevating work platforms (EWPs) machines to complete all the height work. Dressmart Onehunga now looks smart!

East Ridge Shopping Centre

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Interior & Exterior Paint Maintenance

After a structural upgrade, the shopping centre exterior needed a visual update. CPL worked with the property manager to treat rust, fill cracks, polish steel and apply a 2 pack coating to high wear areas. This approach minimises the need for ongoing maintenance while maximising the performance of the paint.

Fisher & Paykel Healthcare, Highbrook

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Interior & Exterior Painting

Over the last few years CPL has painted many areas within the 10 acre complex in Highbrook known as Fisher & Paykel Healthcare. The buildings are extremely impressive in size and the corridors seem to go on forever. Each work station has a different colour so it made our paint job fun.

Helius Therapeutics, East Tamaki

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Interior Painting

Helius Therapeutics is one of New Zealand’s first commercial cannabis farms. They grow the cannabis indoors to produce legal medical products. It’s a highly secretive and hygienic space to work in. CPL have painted many surfaces for Helius including timber doors and other items that aren’t covered with stainless steel or freezer panels.
