Every painting quote in Everett should be comparable line by line — scope, materials, timeline, price. Ours is, deliberately, because vague quotes are where budgets go wrong. Waterfront Construction is Northborough-based, licensed (HIC #196540) and insured, and the estimate is free either way.
Everett is in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, established in 1870 and home to roughly 49,000 people. It was largely built out in the streetcar era, which tends to mean late-Victorian and early-1900s two- and three-family homes — solid framing, generous trim, and wiring and plumbing retrofitted more than once. For a contractor that makes it a large community, so the housing runs the full range of eras and budgets. It sits in Greater Boston. It is about 40 miles from our Northborough shop — about 45 minutes to an hour in normal traffic. Being close keeps estimates and site visits quick.
Permitting and inspections vary town to town across Greater Boston, and Everett is no different. As your licensed contractor we file what the building department requires and schedule inspections around the work, so the paperwork never becomes your problem — or your delay.
The job isn't finished when the work is. We haul away the debris, protect and clean everything we touched, and walk the whole painting project with you in Everett before we ask for the final payment.
