Painters in Somerset, MA

A river town, painted by neighbors

You can see Somerset from Fall River, and the Braga and Veterans Memorial bridges make it a few minutes from our shop. The town runs along the west bank of the Taunton River, from the old village in the north down past Pottersville toward Brayton Point and Mount Hope Bay.

We’re a local, owner-run company. Tiago or Alex will come out for the estimate, and the same crew handles the prep, the carpentry repairs and the painting. Every job ends with a walkthrough and touch-ups before we call it done.

Cabinet painting in Somerset

Many Somerset kitchens have solid cabinets that only need a new finish to feel current. We refinish them in your home for far less than replacement, and winter is a natural time to do it.

Know the house

What Somerset homes need from a paint job

Somerset Village along the river has older homes from the town’s shipbuilding and seafaring days, with clapboard, detailed trim and plenty of old paint. Most of the rest of Somerset grew in the decades after World War II, so you’ll see many capes, ranches, raised ranches and splits, plus newer colonials. Even where the siding has been replaced, the trim, doors, shutters, railings and garage doors are usually still wood.

Homes near the river and the bay take wind and damp air, especially on the east and south sides, which wears paint and opens up joints. Houses under big trees deal with mildew and slow drying. Good prep is the answer either way. We wash, scrape, sand, prime bare wood and caulk every open joint, and our crew replaces rotted trim and clapboards before painting.

Older homes in Somerset Village

The older houses near the river have usually been painted many times, and some have trim details you won’t find on newer homes. At the estimate we’ll talk through the older paint layers, show you where the wood needs repair, and explain how that affects the timeline and price. Exterior season runs roughly mid-March to mid-October, so it pays to get on the schedule early.

What homeowners say about Furty

“Hired Furty to paint the exterior of my home and couldn’t be happier. Tiago’s attention to detail really stood out — clean lines, careful prep, and nothing rushed. Communication was excellent from start to finish; I always knew when they’d be there and what was happening next.”
