CE Painting

CE Painting is a Braintree commercial painting contractor led by Eric Crews, with work described across New England and the Mid-Atlantic. Its own site lists interior and exterior painting, wall coverings, occupied renovations, dorms, healthcare, schools, corporate interiors, anti-graffiti work, and other commercial applications; Procore lists 152 projects and painting, coatings, and wall-covering services. The public customer signal is thin but positive: a June 2022 Google review says, “Professionals in the trade.” A 2023 Patriot Ledger article describes growth from southern New England and Portland, Maine into Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, while the company site lists Braintree, Boston, Portland, Baltimore, and other markets. There is one material status question to resolve before hiring. BBB identifies the same Braintree address and alternate name, Collegiate Entrepreneurs, Inc., but says the business appears to be out of business; the current company website and Procore profile present CE Painting as operating. Confirm that the current legal entity, office, insurance, and project team match the company issuing your proposal. For a commercial interior or exterior project, CE Painting’s stated scope is broad enough to cover occupied renovations, wall coverings, and specialized facilities. Ask for recent comparable references and a written scope before proceeding, given the conflicting status information.
