Painter in Melrose, MA
Painting and contracting work in Melrose, covered from our base in Allston. Greater Boston is our normal working radius and we are out there most weeks.
What We Do Here
Front and rear porch systems carry the households on this stock and take the full weather load. Rails, decking and post bases fail first, and coating over soft wood buys a single winter at best.
Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor licence #193121, general liability and workers' compensation on every property. We measure on site and send a written, itemised quote — normally inside 24 hours — so you can see what prep, materials and labour each cost rather than one lump number. Verify our licence on Mass.gov before hiring anyone, us included.
Two finish coats over primer where primer is needed. One coat over a colour change is how you end up with a patchy wall the first time low sun rakes across it.
Colour consultation is part of the estimate. We will bring samples out and look at them on your actual house in your actual light, which is not the same as a chip under fluorescent lighting.
We carry general liability and workers' compensation and will send certificates before work starts. Ask every contractor you are considering for the same thing.

Questions We Get Asked
Yes. Melrose is inside our normal working radius out of Allston, and we take both residential and multi-family work there. Call and we will book a walkthrough.
If it went up before 1978, assume yes until tested. We follow the federal RRP rules and Massachusetts lead law on every pre-1978 property, which changes how we contain and clean the site.
Late spring through October. We need surface temperatures to hold above roughly 50°F overnight for the coating to cure properly, so we schedule around the weather rather than forcing a date.
Massachusetts HIC licence #193121. You can verify it yourself on the state register before hiring us, and you should do that with any contractor.
Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams, chosen per surface. We tell you the exact product and sheen in the written quote rather than leaving it vague.
