What Are The Benefits of Using Professional House Painters?
When you paint the outside of your home yourself, you risk making mistakes. While a quality paint job increases your home’s curb appeal, a bad one does the opposite. You get these benefits when you hire professional exterior painters:
Professional Results
A professional paint job adds value to your home and lasts longer than an amateur paint job. Professionals also save you time and money.
Color Advise
With so many exterior house paint colors, it can be hard to pick one. We have experience with painting all types of Massachusetts residences, and we can advise you on the best color and paint type for your budget.
Safety
Painting involves high surfaces and specialized equipment. Our team has the proper training and certifications for exterior painting services. We have everything we need to prevent damage and disruption.
Exterior Painters Who Emphasizes Preparation for a Magnificent Finish
Prep work comes first in a quality painting project. Before we apply paint to your exterior surface, we:
- Clean the surface with power washing and scraping
- Check to see if the area needs sanding or patching
- Inspect the surface for rot, mold, or other issues
Our thorough process ensures beautiful and lasting results. We inspect the work area first, which may uncover hidden problems. In professional exterior painting services, we know that a solid start is the key to a fantastic finish.
When we complete the job, we check for flakes, debris, and chips. We also clean up the area and leave it the way we found it.
Exterior painting preparation helps everything go smoothly. We plan well and keep you informed so that you can have peace of mind.

House Painting Tips
No matter the size of your house, painting it is a big undertaking. These exterior house painting tips will help you get the best result:
- Buy quality tools. While you want to save money, you don’t want a cheap-looking home. Invest in a few synthetic-bristle brushes with different edges. You should also buy a heavy-duty roller, paint cans, and a bucket.
- Watch the weather. If you paint in direct sunlight, the heat will dry your paint too fast. You also don’t want to paint when you have a risk of high winds or rain. Check the paint label to see the recommended environment.
- Check for lead. If you have an old home or building, you may want to get a lead test kit to avoid exposing yourself or others to lead paint.
- Clean the exterior. Dirt and grime will ruin your fresh paint. Use a cleaner that works on mildew or hire a professional power washer.
When you hire us for exterior painting services, we’ll take care of all of these items for you.
How to Choose Exterior House Paint Colors
Your interior colors typically reflect your style. With the outside of your home, you also have to keep in mind:
- Durability
- The colors of your patio or other accents
- Trim color
- Neighborhood
- Climate
When choosing exterior house paint colors, plan to invest in a premium brand that resists stains and weather. If you have brick or stone near your home, try picking one of their underlying tones. You can choose an opposing color instead of a complementary one—for example, a warm color to contrast with a cooler tone.
Try using an online tool that will recommend coordinating or matching colors. These tools help you visualize the finished look with different color combos.
Finally, buy several test paints. Make sure you test colors on different sides of your home to see them in various lightings. Once you see the colors on your home, you can make a better judgment on which one looks best.
Talk to an Expert
We understand that sometimes you just want to talk before scheduling a consultation. Our team will gladly answer any of your questions or help you with any of your concerns.

Westford is a town in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, United States. The population was at 24,643 at the time of the 2020 Census.
History
Westford began as ‘West Chelmsford’, a village in the town of Chelmsford. The village of West Chelmsford grew large enough to sustain its own governance in 1729, and was officially incorporated as Westford that year on September 23.
In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, Westford primarily produced granite, apples, and worsted yarn. The Abbot Worsted Company was said to be the first company in the nation to use camel hair for worsted yarns.
Paul Revere’s son attended Westford Academy and a bell cast by Revere graces its lobby today. A weather vane made by Paul Revere sits atop the Abbot Elementary school.
By the end of the American Civil War, as roads and transportation improved, Westford began to serve as a residential suburb for the factories of Lowell, becoming one of the earliest notable examples of suburban sprawl. Throughout the 20th century (and with the invention of the automobile), Westford progressively grew, continuing to serve as residential housing for the industries of Lowell, and later, Boston.
In the 1960s, the town was home to one of the research sites supporting Project West Ford.
By the 1970s, with the advent of the 128 Technology Belt, Westford began to act as a suburb for high-tech firms in Burlington, Woburn, and other areas, and later became a center of technology itself.
By the 1990s, Westford was home to offices for Cascade Communications (now part of Nokia), NETSCOUT, Red Hat, Samsung, Sonus Networks, Seagate, Iris Associates and many other technology firms, most located along Massachusetts Route 110, parallel to I-495. It is also the North American headquarters for Puma, which holds a road race in town.
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 31.3 square miles (81 km), of which 30.6 square miles (79 km2) is land and 0.7 square miles (1.8 km) (2.30%) is water.
Regionally, it is on the edge of the Merrimack Valley, Northern Middlesex County, and the Metrowest regions of Massachusetts.
Colloquially, the town is divided into different regions based on location, including Forge Village, Nabnasset, Graniteville, Parker Village, and Center of Town.
The town was rated as #11 Best Places to live by Money.com in 2013.
