Irish Painting has been painting homes around Cambridge since 1992, by its own account — one outfit, run for 34 years out of a Massachusetts Ave address, with Eoin McCarthy named as the owner in customer testimonials on its own site. The pitch is straightforward: interior and exterior painting for houses and small commercial jobs across Cambridge, Somerville, and the greater Boston area, with staining, paint removal, power washing, and some light carpentry rounding out the work. The public track record is thin but consistent. Reviews turn up across four different sources between 2022 and 2024, and on Google specifically, nine ratings average a perfect five stars. That's a small sample by any measure, but the tone has held steady rather than scattering between praise and complaint. Its Better Business Bureau file carries an A+ grade, though it isn't a BBB Accredited Business — accreditation and grade are separate things there, so it's worth knowing the difference rather than assuming one implies the other. Its Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor license, number 157071, checks out as active with the state. For a straightforward repaint in the Cambridge or Somerville area, the pieces here line up — an active license, a clean A+ BBB file, and a small but unblemished review history. Given how few reviews exist anywhere, it's worth asking for a couple of recent references before committing to a larger job.

Eoin and his crew painted the exterior of our triple decker in Cambridge last year. They were a pleasure to deal with, have stood by their work, and did a great job. We have also since hired them again for an interior painting project, and again had a good experience. Thanks Eoin!

Eoin and Clio painted my home's interior. They were punctual, tidy, and meticulous with their work. You can trust them and you will LOVE them!

I found Leo and started chatting with him on the website. Sean came out a few days later and the whole thing was straight forward. He provided us with a non binding quote and they came out for free to provide the estimate. We went ahead and proceeded with the work and I could first hand watch him pull out quite a bit of Lint out of our vent. All in all, a great experience and I will recommend Irish Dryer Vent & Air Duct Cleaning And Chimney Repair LLC to others!

Eoin and his team provided exceptional service, great quality, and wonderful value. Eoin was responsive throughout the quoting process and was always reliable about showing up exactly when he said he would. We had his team repaint a dining room, a bathroom, the living room (with many built-ins), and three bedrooms when we moved into our new house. They did this on an incredibly tight timeline so that we could also replace carpets and move in two weeks after closing. Eoin promised to finish the project in a week and was actually done in just 5 days. Since then we also hired Eoin to repaint the front hallway (including some difficult stair tread areas), to repaint damaged walls in a rental unit, and to do touchups. The quality has been fantastic throughout and we believe his team provides great value for the money. We highly recommend him to all of our friends in the area.
