Star Painting Service Group, Inc.

One homeowner hired them because of a job they never bid on: in a July 2025 review, a customer says he watched the crew repair and repaint the house next door a few years earlier and decided that was who he wanted for his own exterior — and that the contract came back detailed, at a fair price. Star Painting Service Group works out of Danvers. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, #187212, is active on the state registry, and the company's site says it has been painting for more than 20 years, doing interior and exterior work with rot repair, cabinet refinishing, and decks, fences and pergolas. What customers describe is exterior painting done the slow way. A November 2022 reviewer walked through the prep — scraping, sanding, caulking, no corners cut — and noted the crew kept their ladders out of the neighbors' way. An October 2022 customer credits them with repairing tricky siding and trim before any paint went on, and a July 2022 Google reviewer describes extensive carpentry as part of the exterior job, along with a porch interior painted up to its vaulted ceiling. The jobs also run well past paint. A September 2025 reviewer had a bathroom remodeled down to the studs; a January 2023 customer had two walls taken out, kitchen cabinets swapped for open shelving and the kitchen painted, all inside four days; an April 2023 review lists windows, a deck, flooring and cabinets. Angi and HomeAdvisor each show 5.0 from 25 reviews, which HomeAdvisor dates 2022 to July 2024; Google's eight ratings average 4.5. That Google figure carries the one complaint. A December 2024 one-star says the customer contracted with them to paint his house, that a porch rebuild and other work followed, and that the old porch decking was then left in his yard with a floor jack the crew had used, with months passing while he waited. Other customers describe the reverse — sites left clean every night, in a May 2023 account, and everything cleared at the end of the job in an April 2023 one — so put debris removal and a finish date in the contract rather than assuming them. How long they have been at it depends on which page you read: 19 years on Angi, 24 on HomeAdvisor, more than 20 on their own site. HomeAdvisor lists English, Spanish and Portuguese spoken. For an exterior repaint where the prep and the rot repair matter more than the topcoat, this is a reasonable call. Ask which crew lead is yours — reviewers deal with Eddie and Edson — and get the cleanup and the completion date written down.
