"We couldn't be happier with Dave's overhaul of our fireplace. His attention to detail, and commitment to excellence. We feel so lucky to have found him after another contractor flaked out on us. He came to the rescue & did whatever it took to get the job done on time and on budget. He is highly skilled and capable. Several times during the job he suggested things that would enhance the finished product. In doing so he created more work for himself. These upgrades probably added a full day of additional work. He didn't change the cost for the job, he just wants his customers to be happy. His attention to detail and cleanliness blew our minds. He spent a full day getting the room taped off to prevent dust from spreading throughout the house. A full day!?!? And it paid off when the work was done...we're not even hiring a cleaner. More than anything Dave's got a good heart, my wife and I genuinely enjoyed meeting and working with him. (Note: no AI was used in writing this review!)"

CertaPro Painters have been in painting business for 12 years. We pride ourselves in bringing science into painting so your house will receive the best paint job at the most competitive price. We understand a well executed painting project has a much deeper impact than increasing home value and protecting from natural elements, that is why we adopt the Wayfinding Approach where every minor detail and step is designed to provide the best customer experience.

"They answered my calls, came out and measured, and gave me an accurate quote. They knew what they were doing. The estimator and contractors had differing opinions on how many coats, so I think I overpaid a little."

From start to finish Randymars Painters Contractors Inc maintains the highest standards of project management and workmanship. Our painters utilize only the highest quality products in our work. All our painting work is thoroughly inspected as the work progresses in detail and in depth. There is no job too big or too small that we can't handle. We look forward to doing business with you.

"Randymars was professional from start to end of my project. I had experienced a flood in my basement and my walls and sink cabinet were destroyed. They provided me with a quote in a timely fashion and were able to start the project that same week. The crew were timely, polite, and were very respectful of my property. They worked hard and completed the project within three days. They restored my garage and basement walls to perfection and installed a new cabinet for my sink with expertise. I would definitely hire Randymars again."

Family run business who are ready to start helping owners create the home they have always wanted! We have over 25 years of experience! We get our jobs done as quickly and as efficiently as possible at a reasonable price! Perfection is what we strive for at all times! Our clients satisfaction is what keeps us going throughout our profession. We use the best of the best painting materials along with the best painting brand " Benjamin Moore". Our company is based out of Northborough & Marlborough Massachusetts but we service all of Massachusetts.

"Chillins Painting & Remodeling – A Total Disaster of a Company If I could give zero stars, I would. Hiring Chillins Painting & Remodeling was an absolute nightmare from start to finish. This company has no business calling themselves professionals. The paint job they rushed through started peeling within days — not months, not weeks, days. Their siding work was just as bad: they dumped the old siding all over our lawn, killed most of our grass, and then acted like it wasn’t their responsibility. We had to beg them to come back just to clean up their own mess. When it came time to actually finish the job, they offered one ridiculous excuse after another — locked keys, injuries, “other jobs” they chose to prioritize instead of ours. Finally, when the owner begrudgingly returned, he tried to shake us down for more money before doing the work we already paid for. That second attempt was just as careless and pathetic as the first, with peeling paint, visible damage to our siding, and yet another pile of unused materials they dumped on our property for us to pay to remove. Chillins Painting & Remodeling is everything you hope to avoid when hiring a contractor: sloppy, dishonest, condescending, and utterly incompetent. They cut corners at every step, treat their customers with disdain, and leave your property in worse condition than when they started. This company is a scam dressed up as a contractor. If you care about your home, your money, or your sanity, stay far, far away from Chillins Painting & Remodeling. They are a complete embarrassment to their trade."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Carlisle, MA

Painting an old or worn garage door is a budget-friendly way to refresh your home's exterior and boost its curb appeal without paying for the cost of replacement. A fresh coat of paint not only enhances the look of your garage but also helps protect it from the elements, potentially extending its lifespan. Even if there's rust present, you can address it by cleaning, priming, and painting over it for a seamless finish.

Sanding your garage door before painting is an important step that helps the paint adhere properly and last longer. It smooths out rough spots, removes peeling paint or rust, and gets rid of dirt and debris that could affect the finish. If your door has a glossy finish, lightly sanding it will also help the paint stick better.

Painting a garage door takes two to three days from start to finish, including preparation, painting, and drying time. This allows each coat to dry fully and ensures a professional-quality finish. Hiring a professional painter and taking the time to do it right helps achieve a long-lasting, durable paint job.

One gallon of paint covers close to 400 square feet, which is often enough for two to three coats on a standard one- or two-car garage door. This ensures complete coverage and an even finish, especially if the door is properly prepped and primed. If you’re using a darker color or painting over a contrasting shade, you may require more coats to achieve your desired finish.
