Questions homeowners ask us.

Yes. The Ant Painting is fully insured on every job, interior and exterior, no exceptions.

Call us or send the form. We come out, walk the job with you, and send a written proposal. No cost and no obligation. We reply to every request within one business day.

We're based in Northborough and work across MetroWest and the towns west of Boston, including Dover, Sherborn, Wayland, Weston, Needham, Wellesley and Newton. Don't see your town? Reach out, chances are we cover it.

The same crew, every day, until the job is finished. The painters who quote your job are the ones who show up to do it. No rotating subcontractors and nobody you have never met walking through your house.

If the boxes are solid, yes. We refinish kitchens, bath vanities, built-ins and millwork, and solid wood, MDF and laminate boxes are all workable. It costs a fraction of new cabinets.

Floors covered, furniture wrapped, hardware removed rather than taped around, and a full cleanup at the end of every day, not just at the end of the job.

Monday through Saturday, 7AM to 6PM. Call (617) 800-6003 or email contact@littleantpainting.com.

We handle it. Furniture gets moved to the center of the room and wrapped, floors get covered, and fixtures and hardware come off rather than getting taped around.

Yes, always. Nail holes get filled, cracks get cut out and taped, and walls get skimmed where needed. Fresh paint over a bad wall is still a bad wall.

Absolutely. One room or the whole house, the prep and the care are the same.

Yes. Walls, ceilings, trim, baseboards, crown molding, wainscoting, built-ins and interior doors.

Exterior work depends on temperature and moisture, so we schedule around the weather. Reach out early and we'll plan the right window for your house.

Clapboard and wood siding, cedar shingles, trim, front doors, porches, decks and fences.

Usually the surface underneath: dirt, moisture, chalking or old failing paint. We wash, scrape, sand, feather and prime before we finish so the new coat has something sound to bond to.

On shaded and north-facing walls, mildew is washed off and treated before priming. Skipping that step is why paint fails on wooded lots.

If the boxes are solid, yes. Refinishing costs a fraction of replacing them and takes days instead of weeks.

Yes. Solid wood, MDF and laminate boxes are all workable with the right cleaning and bonding primer.

No. We spray the doors and drawer fronts, so the finish comes out smooth enough to run your hand across.

We can set up on site, often in your garage, so the doors don't leave the property and your kitchen goes back together faster.

Hinges and hardware are removed, labeled by position and reinstalled carefully when the finish has cured.

We don't recommend it. It works until humidity gets behind the paper, and then it lifts and takes the paint with it. We remove the paper and the adhesive.

Yes, along with skim coating over old textured plaster, so the ceiling is smooth and ready for paint.

Because they were only filled. We cut them out, tape them and skim, so they stay closed.

A stain is a symptom. We'll tell you if we think something upstream needs fixing first, then repair and paint it properly.
