SANTOS PAINT

Santos Paint is a New Bedford, MA, painting outfit built around one name that keeps coming up in review after review: Jayson Santos, who works the jobs himself alongside a small crew. Fifteen reviews across Google and Thumbtack, all five stars, run from mid-2025 through August 2026 and describe the same thing repeatedly — someone who answers fast, explains what he's doing, and leaves a clean site behind. Reviewers describe a full-house repaint for first-time homeowners, a vaulted-ceiling living room and entryway other painters found tricky, and one case of redoing work a previous contractor had botched. A December 2025 review called out clean paint lines and a smooth finish specifically, and several others mention the price landing where they expected it to, with no surprise add-ons. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active, held by Jayson Santos. Worth knowing before calling: the review history only goes back to mid-2025, so there's no multi-year track record yet — but nothing in what's there points the other way, and Thumbtack lists cabinet painting alongside interior and exterior work. For a full-room repaint or a ceiling other painters have passed on, this is the kind of job people keep mentioning; confirm timeline and scope up front for a larger multi-room project.
