What Are The Benefits of Using Professional House Painters?
When you paint the outside of your home yourself, you risk making mistakes. While a quality paint job increases your home’s curb appeal, a bad one does the opposite. You get these benefits when you hire professional exterior painters:
Professional Results
A professional paint job adds value to your home and lasts longer than an amateur paint job. Professionals also save you time and money.
Color Advise
With so many exterior house paint colors, it can be hard to pick one. We have experience with painting all types of Massachusetts residences, and we can advise you on the best color and paint type for your budget.
Safety
Painting involves high surfaces and specialized equipment. Our team has the proper training and certifications for exterior painting services. We have everything we need to prevent damage and disruption.
Exterior Painters Who Emphasizes Preparation for a Magnificent Finish
Prep work comes first in a quality painting project. Before we apply paint to your exterior surface, we:
- Clean the surface with power washing and scraping
- Check to see if the area needs sanding or patching
- Inspect the surface for rot, mold, or other issues
Our thorough process ensures beautiful and lasting results. We inspect the work area first, which may uncover hidden problems. In professional exterior painting services, we know that a solid start is the key to a fantastic finish.
When we complete the job, we check for flakes, debris, and chips. We also clean up the area and leave it the way we found it.
Exterior painting preparation helps everything go smoothly. We plan well and keep you informed so that you can have peace of mind.

House Painting Tips
No matter the size of your house, painting it is a big undertaking. These exterior house painting tips will help you get the best result:
- Buy quality tools. While you want to save money, you don’t want a cheap-looking home. Invest in a few synthetic-bristle brushes with different edges. You should also buy a heavy-duty roller, paint cans, and a bucket.
- Watch the weather. If you paint in direct sunlight, the heat will dry your paint too fast. You also don’t want to paint when you have a risk of high winds or rain. Check the paint label to see the recommended environment.
- Check for lead. If you have an old home or building, you may want to get a lead test kit to avoid exposing yourself or others to lead paint.
- Clean the exterior. Dirt and grime will ruin your fresh paint. Use a cleaner that works on mildew or hire a professional power washer.
When you hire us for exterior painting services, we’ll take care of all of these items for you.
How to Choose Exterior House Paint Colors
Your interior colors typically reflect your style. With the outside of your home, you also have to keep in mind:
- Durability
- The colors of your patio or other accents
- Trim color
- Neighborhood
- Climate
When choosing exterior house paint colors, plan to invest in a premium brand that resists stains and weather. If you have brick or stone near your home, try picking one of their underlying tones. You can choose an opposing color instead of a complementary one—for example, a warm color to contrast with a cooler tone.
Try using an online tool that will recommend coordinating or matching colors. These tools help you visualize the finished look with different color combos.
Finally, buy several test paints. Make sure you test colors on different sides of your home to see them in various lightings. Once you see the colors on your home, you can make a better judgment on which one looks best.

Foxborough is a town in Norfolk County, Massachusetts, United States, about 22 miles (35 km) southwest of Boston, 18 miles (29 km) northeast of Providence, Rhode Island and about 40 miles (64 km) northwest of Cape Cod. The population was 18,618 at the 2020 census.
“Foxborough” is the official spelling of the town name per local government, but the abbreviated spelling “Foxboro” is common and is used by the United States Postal Service.
Foxborough is best known as the site of Gillette Stadium, home of the New England Patriots of the National Football League (NFL) and the New England Revolution of Major League Soccer (MLS).
History
Settled in 1704 and incorporated in 1778, the town of Foxborough was named for Charles James Fox, a Whig member of Parliament and a staunch supporter of the Colonies in the years leading up to the American Revolution.
The town was once home to the world’s largest straw hat factory. Founded by local businessman E.P. Carpenter, the Union Straw Works burned to the ground in the early 20th century. The town post office now stands on the site.
Foxborough was composed of small neighborhood communities until the early 1900s. These included Foxvale/Paineburgh, which remained semi-independent until the early twentieth century; Quaker Hill in South Foxborough; and Lakeview/Donkeyville in West Foxborough.
Schaefer Stadium (later known as Sullivan Stadium, then Foxboro Stadium) opened in 1971 as the home of the New England Patriots, after the football team spent its first eleven seasons playing at various stadiums in Boston. The family of Billy Sullivan owned both the Patriots and the stadium until they sold the team in 1988. The stadium, however, lapsed into bankruptcy and was then bought by paper magnate Robert Kraft. With Kraft in control of Foxboro Stadium, he prevented the Patriots from relocating to St. Louis in 1994 by refusing to let the team break their lease, then bought the Patriots outright. Kraft then founded the New England Revolution, one of the charter clubs of Major League Soccer, in 1996.
Gillette Stadium opened in 2002 as a replacement for Foxboro Stadium. The Patriot Place shopping plaza, built on land surrounding the stadium bought by Kraft, completed construction in 2009. The plaza includes a variety of restaurants, clothing stores, and other retailers.
Foxborough hosted multiples matches during the 1994 FIFA World Cup at Foxborough Stadium and will do so again during the 2026 FIFA World Cup at Gillette Stadium.
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 20.9 sq mi (54.1 km), of which 20.1 sq mi (52.0 km2) is land and 0.81 sq mi (2.1 km) (3.88%) is water.
Foxborough is located at 42°3′54″N 71°14′52″W / 42.06500°N 71.24778°W (42.065248, –71.247856).
For the purposes of the United States Census Bureau, the built-up central area of Foxborough known as the Foxborough Census Designated Place (CDP) has a total area of 7.6 km (3.0 mi2). 7.5 km (2.9 mi2) is land and 0.1 km (0.1 mi2) (1.69%) is water.

Foxborough’s climate is humid continental (Köppen: Dfa) with four distinct seasons, which is the predominant climate for Massachusetts and New England. Summers are typically warm to hot, rainy, and humid, while winters are cold, windy, and snowy. Spring and fall are usually mild, but conditions are widely varied, depending on wind direction and jet stream positioning. The warmest month is July, with an average high temperature of 83 °F and an average low temperature of 62 °F. The coldest month is January, with an average high temperature of 36 °F and an average low temperature of 18 °F. Periods exceeding 90 °F in summer and below 10 °F in winter are not uncommon but rarely extended, with about 14 days per year seeing the former extreme. Because of the town’s relatively short distance from the Atlantic Ocean, temperatures tend to remain warmer than locations further inland. Like the rest of the northeastern seaboard, precipitation is distributed fairly evenly throughout the entire year, with the winter months receiving slightly more precipitation than the summer months. Powerful storm systems known as Nor’easters can produce heavy amounts of rain and snow at any time of the year, but these storms most often strike during the winter months, causing significant snowfall amounts and blizzard conditions. Thunderstorms occur somewhat frequently in the summer, occasionally bringing heavy downpours, damaging winds, and hail. Tornado activity is relatively low in the area, although there have been a fair share of tornado warnings issued over the years. Due to its location along the United States eastern seaboard, Foxborough is somewhat vulnerable to Atlantic hurricanes and tropical storms that threaten the region from late summer into early autumn.
