Tradie Art Solutions is a Wellington painting and decorating company led by owner Tomas, a qualified BCITO professional painter and decorator, Dulux accredited painter and proud Site Safe member with more than 10 years in the trade. Working from 1 Todman St in Wellington CBD, the team takes on residential and commercial projects across the city — inside and out — with a commitment to going above and while keeping things affordable.
Their work spans three strands: painting and plastering (including deck transformations with high-end finishes, spray painting, special coatings and stripping of old surfaces), restoration of doors, windows, frames and furniture to preserve property heritage, and thorough exterior cleaning that removes mould, grime and weather staining.
Clients consistently describe Tomas and his team as reliable, honest, hard-working and meticulous, with great care taken over preparation and protection of furnishings and carpets. Every project is treated like their own, and your happiness is what matters most. Free estimates are available by phone, email or the website contact form, and the team works Monday to Friday, 7.30am to 5.30pm.
Wellington is beautiful and brutal in equal measure. The same salt-laden winds and horizontal rain that make the city dramatic also fade paintwork, weather timber and streak concrete. Tradie Art Solutions, based at 1 Todman St in Wellington CBD, has built its name on turning that wear around: the bare room made vibrant, the aged window frame restored to its natural elegance, the mould-stained concrete fence gleaming again after a deep clean.
The company is led by Tomas, its owner — a qualified BCITO professional painter and decorator, a Dulux accredited painter and a proud Site Safe member with over 10 years of experience in the field. He founded Tradie Art Solutions to create a reliable team whose work serves as both decoration and protection, delivered with close attention to detail and good communication. It's a simple promise, but clients notice the difference: jobs finished on time and within budget, sites left tidy, and furnishings carefully protected before a roller is ever opened.
Tradie Art Solutions works across three strands. The first is painting and plastering — crafting vibrant interiors, transforming decks with high-end finishes, and handling the crucial prep work like stripping old surfaces so new coatings go on properly. Alongside conventional brush-and-roller painting, the team applies special coatings and spray-painted finishes, and carries out plastering so walls are smooth before the colour goes on. Fences, decks, residential homes and commercial spaces all fall within scope.
The second strand is restoration. Wellington's character homes deserve more than a quick cover-up, so the team revives doors, windows, frames and furniture, ensuring lasting charm and structural integrity. Their before-and-after photos tell the story: an aged wooden window frame stripped back to reveal rich natural timber, and raw restaurant tables crafted into gleaming custom pieces.
The third strand is exterior cleaning. Mould, grime and weather staining are thoroughly removed from concrete fences, walls and exteriors, leaving properties fresh, clean and inviting — often the fastest way to transform how a home presents from the street.
Every project starts with a free estimate — a phone call, an email or the contact form on the website. From there, the team treats each job like it's their own, which is the standard Tomas set from day one. Reviews consistently mention the same qualities: reliability, honesty, meticulous preparation and an upbeat, friendly manner that makes the whole process easy.
Liz Prins of Wadestown said her interior repaint left her house looking 100 times better, noting that carpets and furnishings were well protected before the paint was expertly applied. Victoria Smith, also of Wadestown, has used Tomas for painting and decorating over six years, praising his strong work ethic and meticulous attention to detail. Stephen Rivers of Northland hired him for his Wellington house and found the job completed on time and within budget — with full confidence in his work, especially in challenging marine environments.
Credentials back the craftsmanship. Tomas's BCITO qualification, Dulux accreditation and Site Safe membership signal a painter working to industry standards, with safety taken seriously on every site. For homeowners that means the finish isn't just attractive — it's designed to protect what's underneath for years to come.
Tradie Art Solutions operates Monday to Friday, 7.30am to 5.30pm. Quotes are free, and the team is happy to talk through anything from a single room to a full exterior refresh. Their Instagram feed doubles as a living portfolio of transformations, and the website gallery shows residential and commercial projects side by side. If a Wellington home or business is ready for a new lease on life — inside, outside, or both — the first step is a conversation.
