Exterior and Interior Painting in Waltham, MA

Paint only lasts as long as what is under it. Whether it is the outside of the house or a room inside, most of the work happens before the first coat goes on, and that is the part worth asking any contractor about.

The prep, honestly

  1. Wash Chalk, pollen, mildew and dirt come off before anything else happens.
  2. Scrape Loose and failing paint comes off rather than getting painted over.
  3. Sand Edges get feathered so the new coat does not telegraph the old one.
  4. Prime bare wood Any wood we take back to bare gets primed before topcoat.
  5. Caulk and repair Open joints and damaged trim get dealt with, not painted around.

Wash and paint as one job

We do both, so the wash and the paint can be one engagement with one crew rather than two contractors and two schedules. That also removes the argument about whether the surface was clean enough when the coating went on, because the same people did both.

New England timing

Exterior coatings realistically run May through October here. Outside that window the temperature and the overnight dew stop being reliable, and a coating applied in the wrong conditions is a coating that fails early. We book the season in order, so earlier calls get the better dates.


Inside the house too

We paint interiors as well. Walls, trim, doors and ceilings, whether it is a single room or the whole house. The prep matters as much inside as it does out. We fill and sand, spot-prime the repairs and the bare patches, and cut in clean lines rather than relying on tape to hide a shaky hand.

Floors and furniture get covered before anything opens, and the room gets left clean at the end of the day. Interior work is not weather-dependent the way the outside is, so it is the kind of job we can often fit in during the colder months when exterior coating is off the table.
