GOLINI PAINTING, LLC

Golini Painting LLC is an owner-operated interior and exterior painting company at 169 Haverhill St in Reading, Massachusetts. Evan Golini, who describes himself as a lifelong resident of the Reading area with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Lesley University College of Art and Design, says he started the company in 2007 after growing up working at his father and uncle's contracting business. The written record runs from 2021 through early 2026 and is unusually consistent: forty reviews, every one of them five stars, and they read like different people describing different jobs rather than a batch. Homeowners name Evan personally and describe his crew's work in detail — a bedroom and several peeling ceilings in a 2025 account, wallpaper residue removed and badly damaged wainscoting rebuilt before painting in another from 2025, a 17-foot repaired ceiling and sunroom finished in a single day in a 2023 review, extremely old kitchen cabinets repainted with the walls smoothed out in another from 2023, and an exterior job in 2023 where the crew replaced or repaired rotted wood as part of the work. Two themes repeat across years. The first is preparation and cleanup: reviewers in 2023 wrote that the crew covered everything not being painted and went over floors and counters afterwards, and a 2023 exterior customer said neighbours commented on the depth of the prep work. The second is communication and pricing: a customer writing in 2023 said Evan provided an estimate the same day they reached out and the job was scheduled the following week; another in 2023 called the estimate fair with no hidden costs; a 2026 reviewer who had used the company across five years said the pricing was more than fair and reasonable compared with other local companies. Repeat hiring is common in the record — several customers describe second, third and fourth projects, and a web mention from 2016 said Evan was the only painter they called. Worth knowing before you call: the company's own material describes only interior and exterior painting, so surface repair, wallpaper removal and rotted-wood work appear in the record as part of painting projects rather than as separately advertised trades — confirm scope in writing if your job leans that way. Ask for the written itemised quote reviewers describe, and confirm current insurance directly. For a Reading-area homeowner wanting careful prep, tidy daily cleanup and a quote that holds, this is a well-documented small company with a long and consistent customer record behind it.
