# ScreenCoat Painting & Flooring

**Trade:** House Painting · **Address:** 18 Goodyear St, Beverly, MA 01915, USA · **Phone:** (978) 552-9758 · **Website:** http://screencoat.com/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=gbp_profile&utm_content=main_website · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 5.0/5** (medium confidence) — from 53 reviews across 5 sources. A 0–5 star rating built from what customers and the public say (every review and mention weighted by where it was posted, how old, how detailed and how credible it is, shrunk toward a 3.5★ baseline when evidence is thin) plus what the record shows (Reddit recommendations or warnings, a registry-verified licence, how recently they were reviewed, customer work photos, BBB grade, negative news, a revoked licence). Positive record counts only as far as the reviews have earned it; penalties count in full. Confidence describes how much weighted evidence stands behind the number, never the number itself: low when fewer than about five normal reviews' worth of weight (or mentions only) support it, medium up to about twenty, high beyond that across at least two sources. An operator flag for a suspicious review pattern caps a rating at 3.5★ and marks it low.
100% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 8 reviews, 0 negative.

## The honest read

ScreenCoat Painting & Flooring is a Beverly shop built around a specific kind of call: an old New England floor that's lost its shine, plus the rooms around it that need painting to match. Owner Mike — called Michael in some reviews — runs the crew himself and is the one named in nearly every review on file back to 2021; Google shows 5 stars from 71 ratings.

The floors are the throughline. This year, reviewers describe 1880s pine floors sanded back to a like-new shine and old, scratched maple brought back to life, often alongside a full interior repaint — five rooms painted along with new baseboards and refinished wood floors in one recent job. The pattern goes back years: in a 2024 review, a homeowner described a 172-year-old floor made "quite respectable again", and another that year called a 70-year-old floor made to look new; a 2022 review recalled the same kind of result in a 200-year-old house. Referrals show up often — a 2023 review names an office-colleague referral, and one 2024 customer had hired Mike twice, first for floor refinishing and later for a repair.

There's little to flag. All 53 Google reviews on file are 5 stars, including 8 in the last six months, and nothing in the record — no complaint, no dispute, no regulatory note — breaks that pattern. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active, and BBB lists it as accredited with an A+ grade.

The read here is for an older home's floors and the paint around them, handled by the same small crew — a 2023 review specifically credits Mike with matching stain colors across old and new wood in one house. Given a five-year run of five-star reviews, book ahead rather than expecting next-week availability.

**Strengths:**
- Floor refinishing — centuries-old wood floors restored to look new
- Fast turnaround — big combined jobs finished within about a week
- Word of mouth — customers often come via friend or colleague referrals
- Clean workmanship — floors and paint finished without mess left behind
