Exterior Painting in Waltham, MA

At $705,700, the typical Waltham home runs about 24% above the median of the 143 towns we serve. In practice that means more detailed trim, more color matching, and homeowners who want to see the prep work before the first coat.

The median Waltham home was built in 1962, and 70% 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.

23% of Waltham'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 49% owner-occupied, a real share of Waltham property is tenanted, so we are used to landlord timelines, turnover windows, and quoting work that has to last between tenants.

Waltham has 97 properties on the National Register of Historic Places — among them Stonehurst and Gilbrae Inn. 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, 16.6 miles away, and regularly in neighboring Belmont, Watertown, Weston — so a crew is usually already in the area rather than traveling in for a single job.
