You’ll walk into rooms that feel completely transformed—walls that look flawless, trim that’s crisp and clean, colors that make your space feel like home again. No more staring at peeling paint or faded walls that make your house look tired.
Your historic Cambridgeport home gets the specialized attention it deserves. We understand the unique challenges of painting pre-1978 properties, from lead-safe practices to preserving those beautiful architectural details that make your house special.
The result? A paint job that withstands Cambridge’s harsh winters and humid summers, protecting your investment for years to come.
We’ve been serving Cambridgeport homeowners for over a decade. We’re a family-run business that understands what it means to live in one of Cambridge’s most historic neighborhoods.
Your neighbors trust us because we show up on time, do exactly what we promise, and treat your home like it’s our own. We’ve painted everything from Victorian triple-deckers to converted mill buildings, always with the same attention to detail.
What sets us apart in Cambridgeport? We’re EPA-certified for lead-safe work practices—essential when you’re dealing with homes built in the 1800s and early 1900s. Plus, we use only eco-friendly, family-safe products because we know you care about what goes into the air your family breathes.
First, we come to your home for a free estimate. We’ll walk through each room or exterior area, discuss your vision, and give you an upfront price—no hidden fees or surprise charges later.
Before any paint touches your walls, we handle the prep work that separates amateur jobs from professional results. That means careful sanding, filling holes, caulking gaps, and protecting your furniture and floors. For historic homes, we follow strict lead-safe protocols to keep your family protected.
Then comes the painting—two coats minimum, clean lines, and attention to details like switch plates and trim work. We clean up completely each day and do a final walkthrough with you to make sure everything meets your expectations.

Every painting project includes thorough surface preparation, premium eco-friendly paints, and complete cleanup. You’re not paying extra for basics like drop cloths, tape, or daily cleanup—that’s all standard.
For Cambridgeport’s historic homes, we bring specialized expertise. Many properties in your neighborhood were built between 1860 and 1930, which means potential lead paint issues. We’re EPA RRP certified and follow strict containment procedures to keep lead dust out of your air.
You’ll also get flexible scheduling that works around your life. Weekend appointments? No problem. Need us to work around your home office calls? We’ll make it happen. Living in Cambridgeport means you’re probably juggling a demanding career—we get that and plan accordingly.
Yes, we’re EPA RRP certified specifically for lead-safe work practices. Most homes in Cambridgeport were built before 1978, which means there’s a good chance lead paint exists somewhere in your house.
We follow strict protocols including containment barriers, HEPA filtration, and proper disposal methods. This isn’t just about compliance—it’s about keeping your family safe from lead dust during the painting process.
Before starting any project on a pre-1978 home, we’ll discuss the lead-safe procedures we’ll use and make sure you’re comfortable with our approach. Your family’s health comes first, always.
Three things: we actually show up when promised, we use only eco-friendly products, and we don’t cut corners on prep work. Too many contractors in Cambridge rush through jobs or disappear for days at a time.
We’re a family business that’s been serving Cambridgeport for over ten years. When you call, you’re talking to the same people who will be painting your home. No middlemen, no miscommunication.
Our eco-friendly approach matters especially in historic neighborhoods like yours. These paints perform just as well as traditional options but without the harsh chemicals that can affect your indoor air quality.
Most interior rooms take 2-3 days including prep and two coats. Exterior projects typically run 4-7 days depending on your home’s size and condition. Weather can affect exterior timelines, but we’ll keep you updated.
Historic homes often need extra prep time—especially if we’re dealing with multiple layers of old paint or detailed trim work. We’d rather take an extra day to do it right than rush and leave you with a subpar result.
We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and stick to it. If something unexpected comes up, like discovering more extensive prep work is needed, we’ll discuss it with you before proceeding.
Absolutely. We’ll come to your home, assess the work needed, and give you a detailed written estimate at no charge. This includes discussing paint options, timeline, and any special considerations for your historic property.
During the estimate, we’ll also identify any potential lead paint concerns and explain our lead-safe procedures if needed. You’ll know exactly what to expect before we start—no surprise charges or add-ons.
We typically schedule estimates within a few days of your call, and you’ll have your written quote within 24 hours. We respect your time and want to make this process as straightforward as possible.
We use premium eco-friendly paints from trusted brands like Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams. These paints are low-VOC or zero-VOC, which means better indoor air quality for your family and less environmental impact.
For Cambridgeport’s climate, we select paints specifically formulated to handle New England’s temperature swings and humidity. This means better adhesion, fewer cracks, and longer-lasting color.
Interior paints are chosen for durability and washability—especially important if you have kids or pets. Exterior paints are selected for maximum weather resistance and UV protection to keep your home looking fresh longer.
Yes, we offer flexible scheduling including evenings and weekends. We know most Cambridgeport residents are busy professionals, and we’ll work around your schedule rather than forcing you to take time off work.
For interior projects, we can work room by room so you’re not displaced from your entire home. If you work from home, we’ll coordinate our noisier prep work around your important calls or meetings.
We also offer Saturday appointments for estimates and project start dates. Just let us know what works best for your schedule, and we’ll make it happen.
