About Us
Tauranga's Award-winning Painter & Decorator
Authentic Finishing’s Ltd is an award-winning Painting & Decorating company owned by Clifton George, servicing the Tauranga and Bay of Plenty area. Our Tauranga painters and decorators provide a complete range of interior and exterior paint services for both commercial premises and residential homes.
“Our Nationwide Master Painter of The Year Award”
Authentic Finishing’s Ltd is proud to be the only Tauranga Master Painter to win the nationwide Dulux “Residential Dwelling – New Interior Under $25k” New Zealand Master Painter of the Year” New Zealand Master Painter of the Year award. This is a highly sought-after award in a very competitive category and I am very proud to have achieved this for myself and for the Tauranga Painters in the Bay of Plenty. This prestigious annual award is only given to Painters who produce works of outstanding quality.
Paint Quality & Service Excellence
At Authentic Finishing’s, we understand that when you’re painting your new home or decorating your existing home, nothing is more important to you than having reliable painters and decorators that you can trust. Our years of experience & professional approach have ensured that we have become an established and trusted name throughout the Bay of Plenty with a reputation for courteous and professional service. Sometimes taking on that interior, exterior painting project yourself can be a daunting task. Let our passionate painting company transform your home or business to reflect your personality & client base to be proud of for years to come. Our business values are to provide the same excellent quality of service to our business and residential customers alike, regardless of the size of the job.
Authentic Finishing’s Ltd has completed numerous Master Builder gold-winning show homes for private builders and building companies – and these homes have featured in magazines like NZ Home and Garden and the like. Choosing painters can be very difficult as there are painting companies that say they can deliver the quality that you deserve only to find that they have destroyed the look of your lovely home.
Be assured that as your painter and decorator we only use good quality materials appropriate for the job and that we will not skimp or take shortcuts to keep costs down. Our Company takes great pride in having a 100% non-return record due to poor workmanship since starting this painting business 18 years ago! As a consequence, Authentic Finishing’s Ltd has many very happy past clients and builders that can attest to paint quality & service excellence. You can be assured that the work is done right the first time, making your building project stress-free. There won’t be any need to ask me to return and repaint something that does not look right!
Expertise & Experience
Our company has a total of 28 years in the painting industry; 18 years in painting & decorating and 10 years in the automotive paint industry. The 10 years automotive spraying background gives the ability to deliver a higher level of perfection in paint finishes when applied to business premises and house painting. That’s an important edge over our competitors. (Cliff was also awarded Apprentice of the Year in his third year in the automotive painting industry.)
You can be assured that when you employ us, our painters and decorators will only be using good-quality materials appropriate for the job and that we will not skimp or take shortcuts to keep costs down!

Tauranga painters have been recognized as among the country's best. Clifton George, of Authentic Finishings, brushed off stiff competition at the New Zealand Master Painter of the Year Awards to be announced the winner of the "Residential Dwelling New Interior Under $25,000" award. Mr George won the award for his work on a Mount Maunganui home. Murray Gray, from sponsoring company Dulux and one of the award's judges, said the work had been "flawless." This was a lovely project completed by a highly-skilled craftsman. The home was decorated in natural tones and the brushwork around the doors and frames was immaculate.">
Clifton and his team provide extremely high-quality workmanship. They are reliable, trustworthy and the finished product is of an exceptional standard. Clifton’s follow-up, when required, is excellent. Their attention to detail is what sets this business apart from other contractors. Nothing is too much trouble. I highly recommend Authentic Finishings.
Cliff is very passionate about what he does and provided us with very useful and knowledgeable advice. Our project was completed promptly and without hassle and the paint finish is EXCELLENT!! We are extremely happy with the job that Cliff has done for us. We have had several comments on the finishing from visitors to our home who are particularly impressed with the glass look finishing achieved on our window & door architraves and the doors themselves (we were considering sending them off to be lacquered but no need with Cliff’s finish!) We would not hesitate to use Authentic Finishings again for future projects and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality painter.
Clifton George from Authentic Finishing's Ltd has painted many houses for us. He is passionate about the work he does and achieves a fantastic finish. His great work ethic and attention to detail mean that we do not have any recall of his work.
