Painting Services in Cambridge, MA

Cambridge is one of the most architecturally rich cities in Greater Boston — a dense, vibrant urban community where Victorian mansions line Brattle Street near Harvard Square, historic triple-deckers and rowhouses fill East Cambridge and Cambridgeport, and modern condos and renovated lofts anchor Kendall Square and Central Square. Every neighborhood has its own character, and every home has its own story.

Lima Painting has experience working on Cambridge’s diverse housing stock — from careful prep work on older plaster and historic surfaces to clean, modern finishes on renovated condos and newer construction. Juan Lima and his crew handle every job personally, with the same attention to detail regardless of the size or scope of the project.

Interior Painting in Cambridge, MA

Cambridge’s interior painting needs are as varied as its neighborhoods. A Victorian near Harvard Square may have high ceilings, intricate plasterwork, and original trim that demands a careful, patient approach. A renovated condo in Kendall Square may need clean, contemporary colors applied with precision. A triple-decker in East Cambridge may require efficient work across multiple units.

Whatever your Cambridge home requires, Lima Painting has the experience to handle it. Every interior project starts with thorough preparation — moving and covering furniture, patching and sanding walls, priming bare surfaces, and using premium paints that provide rich, lasting color. We work cleanly and efficiently, and we don’t leave until the job is done right.

Exterior Painting in Cambridge, MA

Cambridge’s older homes — particularly the Victorians and Colonial Revivals near Harvard Square and the historic rowhouses in East Cambridge — require experienced hands when it comes to exterior painting. Older surfaces demand careful preparation, the right primers, and products built to handle New England’s harsh winters.

We have experience painting a wide variety of exterior surfaces common in Cambridge, including:

Wood clapboard and shingle siding
Victorian and Colonial-era trim details
Triple-decker and multi-family exteriors
Brick and masonry surfaces
Trim, shutters, doors, and porches

Whether you own a historic single-family home near Harvard Square or a multi-family in East Cambridge, we bring the same level of craftsmanship and professionalism to every project.

In addition to interior and exterior painting, Lima Painting offers a full range of home services to homeowners throughout Cambridge and the Greater Boston area:

Wallpaper Removal — Removing old wallpaper is one of the trickiest jobs in home renovation. Done wrong, it can damage drywall and create costly repairs. Lima Painting’s crew has the tools and experience to remove wallpaper cleanly and prepare your walls for a smooth, beautiful paint finish.

Power Washing — We offer professional power washing for homes, decks, fences, driveways, and walkways. It’s the best way to remove years of dirt, mildew, and grime — and an essential first step before any exterior painting project.

Gutter Cleaning — Clogged gutters cause water damage to your roof, fascia boards, and foundation. We offer professional gutter cleaning to keep your home protected year-round.

Roof Cleaning — Moss, algae, and debris buildup on your roof can shorten its lifespan significantly. Regular roof cleaning is a smart investment that protects one of your home’s most important assets.

Water Damage Repairs — Water stains, bubbled paint, and soft drywall need to be properly repaired before repainting. We identify and fix water-damaged surfaces so your new paint job goes on a solid, sealed substrate.
