Brookline House Painters for Brick Homes and Historic Districts
Owner-operated, licensed and insured, with careful work on Brookline's older masonry, Victorians, and historic-district homes.
Brookline has a distinctive housing mix, from the brick apartment buildings and rowhouses near Coolidge Corner to the large Victorians and colonials in the leafy streets around Washington Square. Several of Brookline's neighborhoods sit within local historic districts, which means the exterior work is held to a higher standard. Owner Joe Rocha has painted this kind of home for over 20 years and knows how to do it right.
We are a local owner-operated crew, so you deal directly with the person responsible for the finish. On Brookline's older masonry and detailed wood-frame homes, that accountability matters, because these are jobs where prep and attention to detail separate a lasting finish from a quick coat that fails. We stage carefully on Brookline's busier streets and keep the site clean every day.

Brookline's stock leans older and substantial: brick rowhouses and apartment buildings, large Queen Anne and shingle-style Victorians, and colonials with a lot of exterior trim. On brick and masonry homes, the painting is in the trim, cornices, porches, windows, and doors, and crisp lines on those elements are what make a historic Brookline facade look cared for. On the big wood-frame Victorians, it is the detailed woodwork and multi-color schemes.
With areas like Pill Hill and Cottage Farm in local historic districts, and much of the housing predating 1978, exterior work here calls for careful, appropriate prep and lead-safe practices. We hand-scrape and prime detailed trim, patch and prep before painting, and choose finishes that suit both the material and the character of the home.
Interior and exterior painting in Brookline
Outside, we handle the painted trim, cornices, porches, windows, and doors on Brookline's brick and masonry homes, and the extensive woodwork and multi-color schemes on its wood-frame Victorians. Power washing and careful scraping come first so we are painting clean, sound surfaces.
Inside, we paint walls, ceilings, trim, and millwork, repair plaster and drywall, and refinish cabinets. In Brookline's older homes, the interior detail is often original and worth preserving, so we work carefully around it and keep the lines clean.
