About us

*Call or text me directly: 617-838-7108* Pro since 2007. Just me on the phone and in your home making easy communication and consistent quality with minimal intrusion. Insured non-smoker workaholic. Have contracts with various property managers and brokers, but also do plenty of home owners on the side, and because of the other clients and low overhead (and agreements that give deeper discounts on paint than typical for contractors), I can usually save people money and am happy to do it to keep busy between the other clients. If helpful I speak a very basic Russian (learned from wife's family).

Highly recommend. James’ work was excellent. He was clean, neat and efficient. He also did a great job fixing dings and damaged areas of the walls. He even painted an extra large wall at no extra cost. He takes pride in his work and truly wants his customers satisfied with his work. I am planning hiring him again to paint my basement.

Great, J was timely in with communication. I'm on a budget James explained various paint options regarding the paint used and the level of work that would be required if I went with a similar versus a totally different color. My stairway has very high walls for painting and unfortunately I had damaged the walls moving furniture. I'm pleased to say that services were delivered on time, for the estimated price, and the works great. I would enthusiastically recommend J for work as a painter. FYI I have no prior relationship to J, he just did a great job! When I get the coin for the master bedroom job you'll be hearing from me. Thanks!!!

James was super communicative. He was able to come to the house and give us a quote within the day and then he was able to start a couple of days later. We were on a tight schedule so him being that flexible was extremely beneficial. He answered a million of our questions and made us feel comfortable with our ultimate decision. Not to mention he has great prices. I shared his contact information with my family members so that they could use his services in the future.

James did a wonderful job! He helped me to prepare for an upcoming lead inspection. He not only painted interior walls, but he patched walls where needed, and fixed some really problematic areas in my rear hallway. He stayed on task and was cost effective.

I am giving James Golden 5 stars for his high quality of work and for his very reasonable price. He is very flexible to work with and the next time I need indoor painting, James will be the first person I call.

James was great to work with! He was efficient, communicated before, during and after the project well, and did great work. He did our master bedroom, laundry room, living room, hallways, dining room, and kitchen all in less than a week. We would absolutely recommend him to others and use him again for painting projects!

James painted nearly my entire condo (living room, 2 bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom), including trim, ceilings and closets. The prior occupants left many nail holes and larger holes for electronics. James patched everything and the place looks beautiful. He was quick, professional and he cleaned after each job. I recommend James without hesitation.

We hired James to stain our deck. He was invariably responsive, patient, and clear. And, equally if not more important, he did an excellent job! I plan to rehire James for future staining and painting jobs.

I have hired James for all my painting projects: Interior, exterior, fence and shed. He is efficient, well priced, very professional. Project areas are left very clean when he is done. I highly recommend James and plan to use him again for future painting projects. I originally found him on craigslist and am pleased to see him on angi.
