Hear from Our Customers
Your Arlington Heights home deserves more than a quick paint job that starts peeling next winter. You get a complete transformation that enhances your property value while protecting your investment from New England’s brutal weather swings.
Professional painting means no more worrying about peeling paint on your Victorian’s trim or fading colors on your Colonial’s siding. Your walls stay beautiful longer, your indoor air stays healthier with low-VOC paints, and your home maintains that fresh, well-maintained appearance that makes neighbors take notice.
The difference shows immediately and lasts for years. Clean lines, smooth finishes, and colors that stay true through Massachusetts seasons – exactly what your Arlington Heights property deserves.
Clarita’s Cleaning has served Arlington Heights homeowners for over ten years with meticulous attention to detail that customers rave about. As a family-run business, we understand that your $800K+ home is your biggest investment.
What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to family-safe, eco-friendly products – crucial for Arlington Heights families with children, pets, or health concerns. We’ve built our reputation on being reliable, professional, and thorough while maintaining fair pricing.
Local customers consistently praise our attention to detail, noting that we “do not miss a single thing” and often exceed expectations. This combination of comprehensive service, safety-first approach, and customer-focused values has made us Arlington Heights’ go-to choice for residential painting.
Every painting project starts with a thorough assessment of your Arlington Heights home’s specific needs. We examine surfaces, identify prep work required for your home’s age and style, and discuss your color preferences and realistic timeline expectations.
Preparation comes next – the foundation of any paint job that lasts. This includes proper surface cleaning, sanding imperfections, filling holes and cracks, and meticulously protecting your furniture and flooring. We take time to do this step right because it determines whether your paint looks fresh for two years or ten.
Application follows our proven process using premium, eco-friendly paints selected specifically for New England’s climate challenges. Multiple coats are applied with precision, ensuring even coverage and razor-sharp lines. Finally, we conduct a detailed walkthrough with you, addressing any concerns and leaving your home cleaner than we found it.

Arlington Heights homeowners receive comprehensive painting services tailored to their property’s unique character. Whether you own one of the neighborhood’s classic Colonials along Massachusetts Avenue, charming Cape Cods near Skyline Park, or elegant Victorians, we have experience with your home’s architectural style and specific needs.
Interior services include living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, and specialty areas like detailed trim work and accent walls. We’re particularly skilled with the intricate millwork common in Arlington Heights’ historic homes, ensuring every corner and crevice receives professional attention.
Exterior painting addresses the brutal reality of Massachusetts weather – from harsh winters that crack inferior paint to humid summers that promote mildew growth. We use premium paints engineered to resist fading, peeling, and weather damage while maintaining vibrant colors that enhance your home’s curb appeal and protect your significant investment.
We exclusively use premium, low-VOC and zero-VOC paints that are safer for your family and dramatically better for indoor air quality. These eco-friendly formulations are specifically chosen to withstand New England’s punishing climate – harsh winters, humid summers, and temperature swings that cause inferior paints to fail within two years.
Our paint selection includes proven brands like Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore, known for superior durability and color retention. We match the paint type to your specific surface and use – high-traffic areas get extra-durable formulations, while exterior surfaces receive weather-resistant coatings designed for Massachusetts conditions.
This approach means your paint job lasts significantly longer, looks better throughout its life, and keeps your home healthier. You won’t deal with strong chemical odors during application, and your family benefits from improved indoor air quality long after we finish.
Most interior rooms take 2-3 days including thorough preparation, while whole-house interior projects typically require 5-7 days. Exterior painting depends on your home’s size and architectural complexity – single-story Cape Cods often take 4-5 days, while larger two-story Colonials or detailed Victorians may need 7-10 days.
These timelines account for proper preparation, which we never rush. Surface prep, priming when needed, and allowing adequate drying time between coats are essential for results that last decades, not just years. Weather can affect exterior projects, so we build realistic flexibility into our schedule.
We provide honest timelines upfront and keep you informed throughout the project. Our goal is quality results that protect your investment for years, not speed that compromises the outcome. You’ll know exactly what to expect before we start, and we deliver on our commitments.
Absolutely. Many Arlington Heights homes feature intricate millwork, crown molding, and architectural details that require specialized skills and infinite patience. We have extensive experience working with these elements and understand how to properly prep and paint them for lasting, beautiful results.
Detail work takes time and precision – there’s no rushing quality craftsmanship. We carefully mask adjacent surfaces, use appropriate brush techniques for smooth finishes, and pay meticulous attention to the small elements that make the biggest difference in your home’s final appearance. This includes window sashes, door frames, baseboards, and decorative trim.
Our patient approach ensures these beautiful architectural features are enhanced and protected, not hidden or poorly executed. The result highlights your home’s unique character while providing the protection these detailed elements need to withstand daily use and New England weather exposure.
Comprehensive preparation is included in every project because it’s the foundation of results that last. This includes thoroughly washing surfaces to remove dirt and grime, scraping all loose or peeling paint, sanding rough areas smooth, and filling holes and cracks with quality compounds that won’t shrink or crack.
We also handle necessary repairs like minor drywall damage, caulking gaps around trim and windows, and priming surfaces when needed for optimal paint adhesion. All furniture and belongings are carefully protected with drop cloths and plastic sheeting. We remove switch plates, outlet covers, and hardware that could interfere with clean paint lines.
This thorough prep work takes significant time but prevents costly problems later. Skipping these steps leads to paint failure, uneven coverage, and premature wear that ruins your investment. When we finish, you get smooth, professional results that look exceptional and last for years.
We treat your Arlington Heights home with the same meticulous care we’d demand for our own family’s property. Before any painting begins, we move furniture to room centers and cover everything with protective plastic sheeting. Clean drop cloths are placed on all floor surfaces to prevent any dust or paint spots.
All window treatments, electrical face plates, and hardware are carefully removed and stored safely in labeled containers. We use high-quality masking materials to protect surfaces that shouldn’t be painted, ensuring razor-sharp, clean lines without damage to adjacent areas.
Daily cleanup is part of our standard process – we never leave your home messy overnight. At project completion, we conduct a thorough final cleanup, replacing all hardware and fixtures, and removing all protective materials. You’ll find your home actually cleaner than when we arrived, with stunning new paint as the only evidence we were there.
Our unwavering commitment to family-safe, eco-friendly products sets us apart immediately. While other contractors use whatever’s cheapest to maximize profit, we invest in premium low-VOC and zero-VOC paints that protect your family’s health and the environment without compromising quality or durability.
We’re a family-run business with over ten years of experience specifically serving Arlington Heights homeowners. This hyperlocal focus means we understand your neighborhood’s unique challenges – from the architectural styles requiring specialized techniques to the climate conditions that destroy inferior paint jobs.
Our reputation is built on meticulous attention to detail that consistently exceeds expectations. Customers repeatedly note that we “don’t miss a single thing” and often go above and beyond what’s required. Combined with free estimates, flexible scheduling, and our satisfaction guarantee, you get exceptional value and complete peace of mind with every project.
