House Painter in Jamaica Plain, MA

Victorians, triple-deckers and wood-frame homes in Jamaica Plain, scraped, sanded and primed by hand before they are painted. We do not spray.

Your Jamaica Plain Painting Contractor

Jamaica Plain has some of Boston's best wood-frame houses: Victorians with layered trim, Queen Anne porches, and streets of triple-deckers around Jamaica Pond and the Arboretum. Detailed trim and old clapboard need patient hand work, and that is exactly how Joe's crew paints.

Nearly every house in JP predates 1978. Joe Stanley is EPA Lead-Safe certified, so older homes with lead paint are scraped and sanded following the EPA's lead-safe work practices. If you are planning a multi-color scheme to bring out the trim on a Victorian, Joe will walk the house with you and help you settle the colors before work starts.

How We Paint a House, in Five Steps

Why prep matters →
  1. 1

    Wash

    The whole exterior is washed so primer and paint can bond to a clean surface.

  2. 2

    Scrape and Sand

    Loose and failing paint comes off, using orbital sanders where needed. Nothing gets buried underneath.

  3. 3

    Prime

    A good oil-based primer seals bare and weathered wood.

  4. 4

    Fill and Caulk

    Open seams and imperfections are filled and caulked so moisture can't get behind the paint.

  5. 5

    Finish

    Premium paint, applied by hand. Then a 10-year guarantee.

Stanley painting did a great job at our brownstone in the back bay with a range of interior and exterior painting jobs - including bedrooms, window trim/sashes/casings, railings, and stairs. The team was professional, courteous and reliable and delivered on a high quality of workmanship. All of the owners were extremely happy. We highly recommend the team and will be using them again on the next project.

My husband and I couldn’t be happier with the outstanding paint job provided by Stanley Painting for our older home. From the initial contact with Joe, who responded in a timely manner throughout the entire process, to the amazing crew he had do the work. This was an older house, so we needed some TLC which they provided. They were a wonderful team who really paid attention to details, helped us make decisions and were all a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend this company.

Can you paint a multi-color Victorian in Jamaica Plain?

Do you handle lead paint on older JP homes?

Joe Stanley is EPA Lead-Safe certified, so older homes with lead paint are scraped and sanded following the EPA's lead-safe work practices.
