House Painters in Somerville, MA
Somerville is home base for LNO Painting. Jobs here are close to home, which makes it easy to stop by for a walkthrough, start early and stay on schedule.
Most of what we paint in Somerville is older wood-frame housing: three-story multi-families, two-families and the condos carved out of them. These houses have character, and they have quirks. We plan for both.
Homes in Somerville and what they need
Somerville is the most densely populated city in New England, and much of its housing stock is wood-frame triple-deckers and two-families from the late 1800s and early 1900s. Lots are tight, houses sit a few feet apart, and many buildings are split into condos with shared exteriors, shared stairwells and more than one owner to coordinate.
Outside work in Somerville
On a three-story house with stacked porches front and back, exterior work is mostly about access: where the ladders go when the next house is six feet away, how porches and rear stairs get painted without blocking anyone in, and how to keep paint off the neighbor’s car and siding.

Painting in Somerville: FAQ
Do you paint triple-deckers in Somerville?
Yes. Three-story multi-families are a big part of the housing here and a big part of our work, inside and out, including stacked front and rear porches.
Can you work with our condo association?
Yes. On shared exteriors or common hallways we can walk the building with the association, put the scope in writing for everyone, and keep one point of contact through the job.
How do you handle tight lots and close neighbors?
We plan ladder placement and drop cloths around the property line during the walkthrough, and we’re happy to talk to your neighbors before we start if access crosses their side.
