Older homes in neighborhoods like Boston Edison don't just need paint - they need someone who understands what they're working with. The walls, the plaster, the trim details that give these homes their character. Rush any of that and it shows. Take your time with the right prep, and the results speak for themselves.

We just wrapped up a full first- and second-floor repaint on this Boston Edison home, and it covered a lot of ground. Stairwells, hallways, bedrooms, built-ins, window casings - the works. The original millwork and trim details in homes like this are worth preserving, so we treated every door frame and piece of built-in cabinetry with the same care as the walls themselves. Clean lines, solid coverage, no shortcuts.

Plaster repair was a big part of this one too. That's just the reality of working in homes this age - you can't paint over old damage and expect it to hold. We took care of the repairs first, got everything smooth and ready, and then moved into the finish coats. That sequence matters more than most people realize. It's the difference between a paint job that lasts and one that starts showing problems in a year.

What we ended up with is a home that feels cohesive from the ground floor all the way up. The warm neutrals on the walls, crisp white trim throughout, and freshly painted stair railings all work together. Nothing looks patched or painted over. It looks like it was done right - because it was.
