Exterior Painting in Malden, MA
Your Trusted Exterior Painting Contractor in Malden
Malden is dense — about 12,985 people per square mile — and 74% of its homes predate 1980, so most work here means multi-family buildings, tight street access, and federal RRP lead rules on nearly every surface we disturb. Exterior work on pre-1980 housing means RRP containment on every scrape and sand — ground cover, no open-flame stripping, and HEPA cleanup before we leave the site. Locally that means coastal influence with salt air exposure.
Malden (Middlesex County) is a urban community — most renovations here center on weathering, lead-safe prep, and color-matching to existing exteriors. The town has a population of about 65,509 and a median home value near $608K (US Census, ACS 2023), and sits about 26 miles from our Hudson shop.

Example: what exterior painting costs in the Malden area (2026)
$4,500–$11,000 per home — depends on siding type, height, prep needs, and number of stories.
These are market examples, not our prices. They describe the typical 2026 range across MetroWest Massachusetts for work of this kind, so you have a reference point before you talk to anyone. A&M Painter Inc does not price from a table — every quote is written for the specific property after a free walkthrough, and yours may fall outside this range in either direction.

At $607,500, the typical Malden home sits right around the median of the 143 Massachusetts towns we serve — so our standard material grades and crew sizing apply here without adjustment.
The median Malden home was built in 1943, and 74% of the town's housing predates 1980. Most jobs here involve a home old enough to fall under the EPA's pre-1978 lead rule. We are a Lead-Safe certified firm, so containment and HEPA cleanup are standard on any surface we sand or scrape — not a line item added later.
33% of Malden's housing sits in two- to four-unit buildings — the two- and three-deckers this part of Massachusetts is built from. That work means staging off porches and back stairs, coordinating with more than one household, and prepping clapboard that has been repainted many times over. At 42% owner-occupied, a real share of Malden property is tenanted, so we are used to landlord timelines, turnover windows, and quoting work that has to last between tenants.
Malden has 9 properties on the National Register of Historic Places — among them Waitt Brick Block and Odd Fellows Building. A register that size tells you what the housing stock is like: original millwork, many layers of paint, and exteriors where matching a period profile matters more than working fast.
We work out of Hudson, 26.1 miles away, and regularly in neighboring Everett, Melrose, Medford — so a crew is usually already in the area rather than traveling in for a single job.
What Malden's housing is typically like
Malden's median home was built in 1943 (US Census). Homes of this period in Massachusetts are generally pre-war stock — commonly Cape Cod, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival and minimal traditional.
Smaller, well-built houses with plaster interiors and simpler exterior trim than the Victorian stock before them. Lead is still a given. Original wood windows are common and are usually where exterior prep time goes.
Because that predates the 1978 residential lead ban, we treat Malden work as lead-safe by default — we are an EPA Lead-Safe certified firm, and containment and HEPA cleanup are part of the job rather than an extra.
