The particulars of painting in Carver:
We’ve painted dozens of homes in Carver since 1998.
Choosing colors for your Carver Interior and Exterior:
Our interior and exterior color consultant can help you choose colors that blend with Carver’s look and feel. We can even help you choose a historic color that fits right in your Carver neighborhood, while still standing out as original.
Historic homes are our specialty. We’ve painted many historic homes on the South Shore including a few in Carver. We’re happy to work with the Carver Historic District Commission, to make sure your paint colors are historically accurate if that’s important to you.
Preparing your Carver home to paint
We start with first-rate prep for your home’s interior or exterior surfaces. This way, your painting project will stand up better to the harsh winters and hot summers in Weymouth. If your Weymouth home was built before 1978, it may contain lead paint. Because we’re lead-safe renovators, we can prepare your home safely before applying paint. In Massachusetts, it’s the law that a painter be licensed to renovate a home with lead, and we hold every license and certification to keep your family safe.
Ensuring Your Carver Exterior Stands Up to New England Weather:
We start with first-rate prep for your home’s interior or exterior surfaces. This way, your painting project will stand up in Carver, Massachusetts’, harsh winters and hot summers. It’s essential to choose suitable materials and techniques for your exterior painting project. Our painting services are designed to protect your home against these extreme conditions. If your Carver home was built before 1978, it might contain lead paint. As certified lead-safe renovators, we are fully licensed to handle any necessary preparations safely before applying new paint. In Massachusetts, it’s required by law that a painter be licensed for renovations involving lead, and we carry all the necessary certifications to ensure your family’s safety.
Which Exterior Paint Do We Use on Carver Homes?
Every home has its unique characteristics, but certain paints perform exceptionally well in Carver’s climate. Given Carver’s mix of historic homes and modern construction, we often recommend Sherwin Williams Resilience for exterior trim due to its durability and ability to withstand fluctuating temperatures. For clapboards, Benjamin Moore Arborcoat solid stain is a frequent choice, offering superior protection and a long-lasting finish.
Painting Your Deck or Porch in Carver:
Many homes in Carver feature beautiful decks and porches that require regular maintenance. The floors of these outdoor spaces endure more wear and tear than other exterior surfaces, so it’s vital to stain and maintain them every two years to ensure they remain protected. For homeowners interested in reducing upkeep, our carpentry team can rebuild your deck’s surface using composite decking, a maintenance-free alternative to traditional wood that stands up well to Carver’s seasonal extremes.
Tips for Painting Projects in Carver, MA
Carver Exterior Painting Tips:
Dealing with New England Weather: Carver experiences a range of weather conditions, from harsh winters to hot, humid summers. These elements can take a toll on your home’s exterior. We use high-quality paint and staining products specifically chosen to withstand Carver’s climate. If you notice any raw wood on your Carver home, it’s crucial to have it painted or stained as soon as possible to preserve its integrity. Paint and stain not only enhance your home’s appearance but also protect the wood from the damaging effects of moisture and temperature fluctuations.
Addressing Rotted Wood: Carver’s seasonal extremes often lead to rotted wood on trim, shingles, and clapboards. This is a common issue we encounter in many Carver homes. Our team includes skilled carpenters who can replace rotted wood before painting begins. If you spot any rotted wood on your Carver home, it’s important to replace it promptly to prevent water from penetrating further. We offer options to replace rotted wood with either durable PVC or traditional wood, depending on your budget and preferences.
Cedar Shingle Maintenance: Cedar shingles are a popular and beautiful choice in Carver and throughout the surrounding area. Some Carver homeowners prefer their shingles to naturally “gray” over time, while others opt for a protective coating to maintain the original color. We are experienced in all aspects of cedar shingle maintenance, including power washing, staining, and preserving the unique charm of these shingles that are so iconic in Carver.
Painting the Inside of Your Carver Home:
Tailoring to Different Floor Plans: Carver homes, whether historic or newly built, feature a variety of floor plans, each requiring a unique approach to interior painting.
Open-Floor Plans: In newer and renovated Carver homes, open-floor plans are common. These spaces often benefit from a cohesive color palette of one or two shades to create a smooth, unified flow. Using too many colors in an open floor plan can disrupt the harmony of the space, making it feel disjointed.
Adding a splash of Color: If your Carver home has an open floor plan, consider experimenting with a bold color in a first-floor powder room. This is a great way to add personality without overwhelming the space. We can also add color to unexpected areas like ceilings and wainscot.
Older Home Interiors: The interiors of Carver’s older homes often feature distinct rooms separated by walls, making them well-suited for a variety of colors. Our complimentary design service can help you choose colors that complement your existing furnishings and flow seamlessly from room to room. For older Carver homes with horsehair plaster walls, we provide expert repair services to ensure a smooth finish before painting. A fresh coat of paint can dramatically enhance the appearance of stucco walls found in many Carver homes built in the mid-20th century. We offer free color sampling to ensure you’re completely satisfied with your choice before we begin.
Creating Spaces for Teens and Tweens: We also understand the importance of allowing teens and tweens to express their individuality in their bedroom design. Our designer can help strike the right balance, ensuring your teen’s room reflects their personality while still harmonizing with the rest of your Carver home.
