Detailed reviews
My house was first scheduled to be painted by the Painting Project Ltd. on March 15th, 2021. I was advised this would take about two weeks to complete and that this would be done by their ‘team’ whom I assumed were qualified/knowledgable professionals.

The Painting Project NZ, also known as Phoenix Painting Project Limited, is a farce of a business. If it is any indicator of their quality, they have disabled reviews and recommendations on their Facebook page so potential customers can't be educated on the massive negatives of trying to do business with them.
