Aroldo's Painting in Lynn, MA 01902

Aroldo's Painting is a Lynn-based interior/exterior painting and carpentry outfit that keeps showing up on the same properties for one project after another — condo trustees managing 38 units, families who've hired Aroldo for multiple homes, homeowners who call him back years later for the next room. The name undersells the range: alongside painting, the written record backs siding and dry-rot carpentry repair, Trex deck rebuilds, drywall finishing, gutters, and power washing everything from roofs to sidewalks to stone patios. The volume here is substantial — 44 reviews across Google, Angi and Thumbtack running from 2021 through mid-2026, the overwhelming majority five stars. A condo trustee described struggling to find contractors who'd act in the association's interest before Aroldo became, in their words, more of a partner than a vendor in solving degraded siding and painting across the property. In a 2023 review, one customer said Aroldo painted their whole interior after 'many years' of putting it off, then built a large Trex deck, after two other contractors never called back and a third quoted double the price; a 2021 Angi review from the same family said they still admired the interior paint job five years later. In a 2025 review, one customer called Aroldo in after 'a terrible experience with another painter' and had him redo the previous contractor's work. Communication and speed come up again and again: a crew of four painted almost an entire 4,000-square-foot home, garage and three garage doors faster than every competing quote; a sidewalk power-washing customer specifically praised Aroldo for proactively communicating a mechanical breakdown and rescheduling rather than leaving them hanging. Two things are worth knowing before booking. One customer's 2024 review described waking up to find a crew member already inside painting an exterior door without anyone ringing the bell first — a real communication lapse worth asking about directly given how much of this work happens around occupied homes. Separately, a 2026 Thumbtack review mentioned a $100 charge tied to the job starting about 30 minutes later than planned, worth clarifying up front if timing matters to you. Neither shows up as a pattern across the rest of the record, but both are real.
