### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Rebecca O'Brien, Aug. 2025**

> Brooke and her team just painted the exterior of our house and garage and did an amazing job. We are very impressed by the level of detail and the time they took to do everything just right. Truly an exceptional job!

**★★★★★ — Randy Sigler, Oct. 2024**

> We recently had BLC paint the exterior of our home, and had a wonderful experience. We received quotes from three other painting firms, and BLC was not the lowest price, but was BY FAR the easiest to communicate with, and displayed a high degree of knowledge and professionalism.
>
> We checked references and decided to go with BLC. From that point forward, everything flowed like clock-work. Brooke visited multiple times to assure they understood our needs, and made several suggestions to help us achieve them. She gave us a timeline, and sure enough, painters showed up as promised. They were on-site every day (except for a rain day), and worked FULL days … one day not leaving until close to 8:00 pm (while our other workers did their usual 3:45 clean up to be gone by 4:00).
>
> They finished the project in about a week, cleaned up perfectly, and Brooke did a walk through with us to make sure everything was as we wished. The final product looks great! It is newly completed, so can’t speak to it’s durability yet, but everything in me tells me that Brooke will stand by this job should there be any future problems.
>
> Highly recommend BLC painting, and feel certain we will use them again for any future needs (we have an interior job coming next spring). You should certainly include them in your plans for any painting needs.

**★★★★★ — ccarvel03, Nov. 2023**

> Fabulous interior work by BLC Painting!!   Brooke provided guidance on color selection and the painters were punctual, neat and professional.  I have hired Brooke’s company three times over the years to paint rooms in my home - with excellent results every time.

**Comment from BLC Painting:**

> Thank you so much for the kind words! Glad to hear you are a happy client!

**★★★★★ — Bob B., May 2023**

> We are very happy with BLC team. The crew did a great job prepping the house for a much needed paint job. Very courteous and professional. The job was finished on schedule. We have received many compliments on it's new look and have already given recommendations to neighbors looking to have some painting done!         Bob  B.    Salem, Ma.

**★★★★★ — HU-477910461, Aug. 2022**

> Your guys are so professional.  Great work, very clean, very careful, excellent results. The best paint work we have ever had (except for maybe the team you sent to us years ago). Very nice people too.  Great job!  TY!

**★★★★★ — Kimmi Bright, Oct. 2021**

> I own a 215 year old home in Salem, MA and needed to find a painting company that would gracefully and delicately paint the exterior with preservation and restoration in mind. Brooke and her incredibly talented team of craftsman spent an amazing amount of time prepping and thinking of every tiny detail to ensure our home's transformation would be a STUNNING one. I can't believe how much I thoroughly LOVE my home. It looks like a different house, and feels like it will continue to be here for years to come. Thank you so much for taking your time and making sure the job would be flawless. Wow. I am so so impressed.

**★★★★★ — HU-954923020, Sept. 2021**

> This is the second time I’ve hired BLC Painting and they continue to do amazing work. When reviewing my color choices with Brooke she advised me on a complementary color to repaint my fireplace.  It’s now a beautiful focal point of my living room. Even with working from home they went about their work while I got to complete mine. I’ve recommended them to my family and now I’m recommending them to yours.

**★★★★★ — Wendy Ellis, Dec. 2015**

> If you want the most professional, timely, caring and reasonably priced painting company ... look no further ... you must contact BLC Painting! Brooke and her team just completed painting our kitchen and it could not have come out better. Our kitchen is on the smaller side, each nook and cranny was painted with care.  The team was always on time, professional, courteous and great painters. We appreciate the time and care they put into all of their work.   Further, Brooke was incredibly accommodating with the start date, as our construction project was behind schedule and Brooke was kind enough to put us in at a later date.  We just referred them to 2 of our neighbors who came over to see the final result and loved it! Brooke has provides her customers with a free, one-hour consult, with New Leaf Design to give you ideas on the colors you may want to use based on your preferences - very helpful for us. BLC Painting - Thank you for making this experience so enjoyable!

**★★★★★ — fenwyck, Dec. 2015**

> I bid out my exterior paint job to 3 firms, and I awarded it to BLC as they were right in the middle, but their contract covered all that I was worried about.  BLC Painting to completely scraped and painted the exterior of my vintage Dutch Colonial. They showed up on time, cleaned up EVERY DAY and made sure that I knew exactly what was going to be accomplished on the timeline we agreed to. The crew was capable, respectful and extremely competent. The owner of BLC Painting was on site daily doing quality control. Our final walk through found a few missed items that were quickly taken care of. Because of their outstanding work, I then hired them to do interior freshening of the ceilings and trim. Once again they exceeded my expectations. I will be using them again as we continue to renovate our house.

**★★★★★ — gacrockett, Oct. 2015**

> Great team. Show up when they say they will. Really easy to work with and nothing but the most professional work. And Santos brings us tamales!

**Comment from BLC Painting:**

> Thank you so much for the kind words! Always a true pleasure.

**★★★★★ — User, Aug. 2013**

> Prepped and painted a bathroom and repaired and repainted closet doors that were poorly painted by a previous contractor. Excellent job was done and in a timely fashion with a thorough clean up. The cost was reasonable and most of all they listened to my concerns and requests about what I wanted done and they did it.

**★★★★★ — Barbara Scorse, Aug. 2013**

> Fantastic crew of excellent painters. Attention to detail even on the most intricate woodwork. Neat. Plus, they're just plain fun to work with.

## Community Q&A

**Q: What makes Benjamin Moore superior to other brands?** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Are there a lot of differences between BM and others, such as Sherwin Williams or Behr? Does it cover well in one coat or are two coats required?

A: Thanks for reaching out Sara! I would use BM regal select. Be sure it's not just regal but regal select. It is also a low voc which is better not only for the environment but the odor is minimal. You can add a few drops of vanilla extract for a nice odor too!

**Q: Wood trim: keep or paint white?** *(in Design Dilemma)*

We have a house with wood trim and doors.  What is your opinion: should we keep the wood trim or paint it white?  I'm attaching the pictures of various rooms in the house.
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

A: I would agree that some color changes on the walls would be a nice change and could accent the natural wood nicely.
