Mitchell Decorators is a painting and decorating firm in Papanui, Christchurch, with roots going back to 1947, when Frank Mitchell founded it. The current team is run by a Master Painter team that holds awards and works with Resene Eco-Decorator accreditation, which means the paints and finishes it uses meet that eco standard.
The work covers interior and exterior painting, wallpapering, plastering, colour consultation, and planned exterior maintenance for homes, businesses and commercial buildings. Colour consultation looks at existing finishes, furnishings and light, and can match a colour the client wants to keep. Maintenance programmes run on a six-monthly or annual visit schedule, so small problems can be dealt with before they turn into larger repairs.
Customers who wrote reviews say the team is professional, reliable and friendly, and that communication is good. One household had most of its house painted inside and out in about six days, with the team arriving on time every day. Others praise the plastering as well as the painting.
The firm works with Spence Consulting, which offers construction services.
