Makara is mostly lifestyle blocks and rural weatherboard. Southern hills stay damp — moss, algae and gutter buildup are the usual callouts. Low-pressure wash so the paint stays put.
Makara is a regular southern and harbour run. Same crew, same online price as the rest of the city.

Makara is wind, salt and bigger sections. We quote by access and cladding, not a city average — farm buildings and long-run iron need a different mix to painted weatherboard.
A full wash here is usually a day. Two-storey or a long downhill wall takes longer; the online estimate asks for storeys so the price is honest.
