- Dated record — four comments, none since 2023
ML Painting and Cleaning works out of Wakefield and describes itself as an interior, exterior and office painting company that also does cleaning for homes and offices around greater Boston, with more than ten years of experience by its own account. The written record is small and dated. Four customer comments are on file, all posted between 2021 and 2023, and nothing has been written since. The detailed one, from November 2023, describes a crew doing repeat work at one house — a built-in with wallpaper backing that year, and a finished basement with floor-to-ceiling moulding and more built-ins the year before — and credits them as meticulous, tidy and reliable about showing up when they said they would. Two shorter comments from December 2021 and January 2022 describe interior wall and kitchen-cabinet painting, a built-in bookcase installed around a fireplace, and a job finished inside the promised holiday time frame. The other thing on the record is a one-star complaint from July 2022. That customer wrote that one of the company's vehicles hit their car and that repeated messages went unanswered for a week, leaving them to file a police report — a complaint about being contactable after a problem rather than about the painting itself. This is a small operation with a thin, several-years-old public record. If you are considering them, ask for recent references and photographs of jobs finished this year, get the scope and price in writing, and confirm insurance before work starts.
