Joel's Painting Carpentry presents itself as a Waltham, Massachusetts contractor focused on painting and carpentry, with additional pressure-washing, gutter, and remodeling work. Its own website says the company is licensed and insured, serves Waltham, and is available 24/7; HomeAdvisor lists 11 years of experience and four 5-star reviews. The available 2023 HomeAdvisor reviews describe a 4,000-square-foot painting project completed in three days after protecting windows and other non-paintable surfaces, plus positive comments about communication, cleanliness, accommodating service, and meeting the homeowner's requested work. One review mentions exterior trim repair and interior painting, while another says the customer would use Joel's painting again. The review history is small and dated, so a homeowner should confirm current availability, scope, and the company’s license and insurance details before booking. The website specifically describes Waltham service and lists painting, carpentry, gutters, pressure washing, and remodeling; HomeAdvisor's profile is centered on painting. This looks like a reasonable fit for Waltham painting or carpentry work where the stated services match the project. Ask for a current written estimate, references for similar work, and documentation supporting the licensed-and-insured claim.
His team worked hard to make sure we got everything we wanted done the way we wanted it done. We'll definitely be using Joel's painting again for our next project.
I have used Walter Najera several times over last 5 years for exterior trim repair and paint to interior paint. Very accommodating and professional
Excelente job nice and clean
Joel and his team are fantastic! Communication was great and the painting job was spectacular. His team came on day 1 and covered windows and non-paintable surfaces then by day 3 our 4,000 square foot building was done. We would hire Joel and his team again, and look forward to contracting with them in the future!
