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.

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.

Norfolk is a town in Norfolk County, Massachusetts, United States, with a population of 11,662 people at the 2020 census. Formerly known as North Wrentham, Norfolk broke away to become an independent town in 1870.
History
Norfolk is a rural suburban town on the periphery of metropolitan Boston, located on an upper valley of the Charles River. There were a half dozen small farms in the town after 1669, the result of a determined effort to populate the colonial frontier. This was seen as a difficult task despite the good agricultural lands, fresh water fishing and fish runs because the settlement was so remote.
The town was abandoned during King Philip’s War, its inhabitants relocating to Dedham in 1676. When Norfolk was eventually reestablished, the settlers relied on agriculture and cattle grazing with some considerable lumbering and planting of orchards. After 1812, three cotton manufacturing companies were established at Stony Brook, and later in the 19th century George Campbell’s paper mill was opened at Highland Lake making heavy wrapping and building papers. The town saw a rapid increase in population after 1925 when a hospital and a state prison were built in Norfolk on the Walpole line. Major residential development took place before 1940 in the Pondville and Clark Streets section of town with scattered new housing along Seekonk and Main Streets, and suburban residential building has continued since.
Norfolk is located in eastern Massachusetts, bordered by Millis and Medfield on the north, Walpole on the east, Foxborough and Wrentham on the south, and Franklin and Medway on the west. Norfolk is 20 miles southwest of Boston; about 21 miles north of Providence, Rhode Island; and about 205 miles northeast of New York City.
In 2014, Norfolk was the filming location for Ted 2, a comedy film starring Mark Wahlberg and Seth MacFarlane.
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 15.2 square miles (39 km), of which 14.8 square miles (38 km2) is land and 0.3 square miles (0.78 km) (2.30%) is water.

Government
Local
Norfolk has a board of selectmen style government. The town is governed by three selectmen, each elected for three year staggered terms. The current members are Anita Mecklenburg, Kevin Kalkut, and Jim Lehan. The town also elects a town clerk, assessors, constables, library trustees, planning board, recreation commission, board of health, housing authority, and school committee members. In total there exist 21 boards and committees in town.
State
The town is represented in the Massachusetts State Senate by Democrat Rebecca Rausch (Massachusetts Senate’s Norfolk, Bristol and Middlesex district). She has served since 2019. Marcus Vaughn, a Republican, represents the town in the Massachusetts House of Representatives (9th Norfolk district).
Federal
Jake Auchincloss represents the town in the United States House of Representatives, and Elizabeth Warren and Edward Markey represent Plainville in the United States Senate.
Education
As of 2022, there are three public schools located within the town: the H. Olive Day Elementary School (grades Pre-K–2), the Freeman-Kennedy Elementary School (grades 3–6), and King Philip Regional Middle School (grades 7–8).
For secondary education Norfolk is in the King Philip Regional School District, which operates the public middle school and the comprehensive high school for Norfolk. Upon entering the 9th grade, students will go on to attend King Philip Regional High School in Wrentham, or specialty high schools operated by other agencies such as Tri-County Regional Vocational Technical High School in Franklin and Norfolk County Agricultural High School in Walpole. A new public library building recently opened on town hill. Inside the new library in 2009, a one-room school house, the original public library building, was reopened as a meeting room and historical landmark.
Transportation
The Norfolk Airpark (FAA airport code 32M) had one 2,700-foot (820 m) north–south runway and is about 2 miles (3 km) west of the town center. In recent years, however, the airpark has been closed down and is currently in a state of disrepair. A seven house cul-de-sac known as Tailwind Cir now exists where the hangars used to stand while the remaining airport property is now conservation land known as Leland Wild.
The Norfolk MBTA commuter rail station is in Zone 5 and is located in the town’s center at 9 Rockwood Road.
Emergency services
The Norfolk Police Department is a fairly small department located on Sharon Avenue in the south of town near the Norfolk–Wrentham town line. It is staffed by a total of 17 police officers, including the chief of police. The town’s fire department and emergency medical services, located in the center of town on Main Street, was staffed full-time with 24h/7d coverage for the first time in April 2001, and since 2004 provides Advanced Life Support services. The Fire Department is staffed by 13 career firefighters, which includes the fire chief. The police and fire communications department (also known as dispatch) is operated by a total of four full-time dispatchers and six part-time dispatchers. All of these emergency services are located in the police station complex on Sharon Avenue.
At a special town meeting in December 2015, a small turnout of Norfolk voters approved a plan to construct a new police and public safety building on Sharon Street in the south part of town. The police department will be moved to this facility, with the fire department occupying the space vacated by the police. A regional communications center within the Public Safety Building will support the dispatch requirements of Norfolk and three surrounding towns: Wrentham, Plainville, and Franklin.
