Verified record
Boston Fine Finish is Frank Spitaleri's one-man cabinet-refinishing and painting shop out of Winthrop — a business built on a narrow, specific skill rather than a broad trade list. Frank self-reports ten years in the cabinetry and millwork finishing trade, and the reviews back that focus: cabinets are what people hire him for, again and again. The pattern across the written record (2021 to 2026, across Google and older listings) is consistent. In a 2024 review, a homeowner describes Frank explaining exactly why the paint on her white cabinets was peeling before turning the refinish around in about a week and a half. In a 2021 review, another customer says he had a "far better system" for cabinet refinishing than two other painters she'd quoted, bringing 1985-era cabinets back to looking new. He also takes on interior painting and the occasional bathtub refinish — in a 2023 review, one self-described tradesperson praised his attention to detail on both a full kitchen and a bathroom. You'll see him credited under an earlier business name, Patriot Painting Co., in reviews from 2022 and 2023 — same owner, same work, just a rebrand along the way. The last six months carry only two reviews, both positive, so the fuller multi-year record is doing more of the lifting here than a business with a busier recent cadence would need — worth keeping in mind, though nothing in the record points to a slowdown in quality. Every account on file, old and new, describes the same things: prompt communication, careful masking and prep work, and cabinets that customers say look factory-new when he's done. For a straightforward cabinet refresh or an interior repaint, that's a well-worn track record to book from.

I worked with Frank and he was unbelievable. He was extremely professional, finished everything on time, and made the whole process hassle‑free. I would highly recommend him
Frank just refinished our kitchen island and did an amazing job. He is fair, professional and quick. We plan to use him for additional paint projects around the house and have already referred him to friends and family. You won’t be disappointed!
Frank was a true professional. Did a fantastic job and always answered his phone when I needed him. Would highly recommend!
Frank did a great job on our cabinets he met all expectations and the final product came out great. He was professional and protected all the surfaces around our cabinets from being impacted from the painting. We would use him again on any further projects.
I couldn’t be happier with the work Frank at Boston Fine Finish did on my kitchen cabinets and island. The results are absolutely stunning! Frank’s attention to detail and craftsmanship are unmatched—every inch of the cabinets looks flawless. He was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process, ensuring everything went smoothly and that I was completely satisfied. Frank is truly a pleasure to work with, and I’m already planning to have him back for future painting projects in my home. I can’t recommend him enough!
