Personal Statement

I’m Fabrício Barboza (FAB). I’ve been in NZ since 2005 working in many different industries, building the kiwi dream.

Back in 2015 I decided to become a tradesman. Painting has been something that runs in the family, as my father worked for years in Sherwin Williams factory, I grew up seeing him display very strong painting abilities through many of his spraying samples, which I still remember to this day.

Years ago, through a great friend David Driscall I had the privilege of meeting Brent Pickworth (Owner of Precision Painter in Motueka ) and He made me realise how renovating a home with a well put together paint work, could change the whole idea of it all, giving a home the fresh look it’s owners will identify with.

Focused on that, I started a BCITO apprenticeship in Queenstown, which granted me a (National Certificate as Qualified Painter and Decorator).
