First Century Painting is a Peabody-based painting business run by owner George, listed on the company's own Angi profile as 21 years in business (self-reported). Fifteen straight five-star Google reviews from 2021 through this year describe the same habits: meticulous attention to small details, promptness, and reasonable prices. A December 2023 review recounts George personally calling a client who was out of town when the job wrapped up, to make sure they were happy with the result before considering it done. In an August 2021 review, a homeowner described a home in rough shape — extensive peeling paint plus carpentry repairs — where the crew also hand-washed dark stains off the gutters as part of the job. Several reviewers describe hiring George repeatedly over multiple years rather than one-off jobs, and a March 2026 review covers a full interior repaint plus the interior of a new ADU garage conversion. One thing worth checking directly: Massachusetts's registry shows the home improvement contractor registration held under First Century Painting's name as expired, so it's worth asking George about his current registration status before signing a contract. The written record here is thinner in the most recent stretch — one review in the last six months — but nothing in it breaks from the pattern of the rest.
