RCA Painting LLC

RCA Painting LLC works both sides of the Massachusetts-Rhode Island line — Seekonk, Swansea and Rehoboth on the Massachusetts side, Warren, Barrington and Bristol on the Rhode Island side — doing interior and exterior painting, cabinet refinishing, ceiling and texture work, garage floor coating and the light carpentry that goes with a repaint. It describes itself as licensed, insured and EPA/RRP compliant, with 25 years behind it. The record is unusually consistent: 39 reviews across Google and Houzz going back to 2013, every one of them five stars, and a 4.9 Google average from 37 ratings. Twelve of those reviews are from the last six months. What customers keep returning to is preparation. Recent reviewers describe scraping and sanding trim before painting, power washing a house and garage before any coat went on, and shingles quietly re-secured while the crew was up there. Several 2025 accounts mention daily cleanup and furniture and artwork put back where they were found. Repeat hiring is common — one 2025 customer described a relationship of more than 20 years, another had them back the same winter for five rooms and the hallways. One thing to know going in: the business has changed hands. Reviewers writing in 2026 explain that Richard, who founded the firm and whom every older review names, has died, and that Stephen and Cori now run it — with, by those same accounts, the painting team unchanged. Reviews from 2025 and 2026 name Stephen and Cori directly and are as positive as the older ones, so the transition reads as smooth, but it is worth confirming who will be running your job. Pricing comes up twice as above the cheapest quote — a 2013 reviewer said so plainly and judged the work worth it — so expect to compare on preparation rather than price. For an exterior repaint around Seekonk, Swansea, Rehoboth or the Rhode Island East Bay where the prep work matters more than the sticker, this is a strong pick. Ask for a written scope of the preparation steps and confirm the current crew and schedule when you get the estimate.
