Leo Letourneau Paint/Paper

Leo Letourneau Paint/Paper has been painting since 1998 — 28 years — and carries an A+ grade from the Better Business Bureau, which is notable because the company has never paid for BBB accreditation. The grade is the bureau's own assessment, not a customer score. The work is narrower than most painting outfits: the company describes itself as specializing in interior paint and wallcoverings for residential and commercial clients, which is the kind of finish work — walls, papers, interiors — that rewards a specialist. It runs from 25 Sherbrook Road in North Dartmouth with a second address at 247 Bloomfield Street in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, so the reach spans the state line. It is also very small. The BBB records it as a sole proprietorship with one employee and Mr. Leo Letourneau as owner and the only listed contact, so the person quoting the job is the person doing it. A LinkedIn profile lists a house painter working for the company continuously since November 2003 across Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts, which suggests more hands than the BBB headcount implies — worth clarifying if crew size matters to your schedule. What is missing is any customer voice. The BBB opened its file in 2011 and has published neither a review nor a complaint since, so the A+ and the 28 years are the whole public record. This is a sensible call for interior painting and wallpaper work on the South Coast or into Pawtucket, where a long-established one-man specialist is what you want. Before booking, ask who will actually be on site, ask for two or three recent local jobs you can look at, and get the Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration and insurance in writing.
