Costa Painting Services Inc and Carpentry

Costa Painting Services is a Massachusetts painting and carpentry outfit — the company's own site says it has been on residential and commercial jobs since 2007, and the trim, siding and porch repairs that keep showing up in its reviews back up the "and Carpentry" in its name. Homeowners call it for exterior repaints on older houses, interior refreshes, and the carpentry work — deck refinishing, porch rebuilds, gutter and siding fixes — that tends to come bundled with the paint job. The thing that shows up review after review is thoroughness. A 2026 review on an 1860s home describes "considerable" wood shingle repair worked around weather delays, and a 2024 review on an 1895 Victorian in Braintree lists surface prep, extensive carpentry to the front porch and siding, and a full gutter and downspout replacement — all under one job. Across 99 Google ratings the average sits at 4.9, and the run of five-star reviews stretches from 2021 through 2026, most crediting Adilson Costa personally for staying responsive and for coming back to finish small items before calling a job done. One 2025 review describes the crew returning the next day, unpaid, to finish gutter adjusting and chimney paint a customer had flagged. It isn't spotless. A short 2023 review reported paint peeling and said it went unaddressed — a real complaint even without more detail, and worth asking about directly if anything similar has come up since. The company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, which the state registry lists under Costa Painting Services, Inc., currently shows as expired — worth confirming its status before signing a contract. For a full exterior repaint, deck refinishing, or a painting job that comes with real carpentry attached — a rotted porch, damaged siding, gutters that need replacing — this is a well-reviewed, detail-oriented option with a long track record. Confirm the registration is current and ask about the peeling-paint case before booking.
