I’ve been working with James Anthony Custom Painting for over 13 years now.  I first used Anthony to paint my own home and his attention to detail was exquisite.  The results have lasted for years.

I have since recommended Anthony to my clients and they have all had the same excellent experience.  

Whether they are looking for their homes to be painted, or to freshen up properties to sell or rent, James Anthony Custom Painting has done the best job.

We have now been fortunate enough to have had Anthony paint two houses we have owned over the past several years.

Over our many decades of home ownership, we have never worked with a painter as meticulous and dedicated to “doing it right” as Anthony.  As I am, myself, a perfectionist, it alleviates so much burden to have someone of Anthony’s caliber working on our house.

 Anthony is our one and only painter.

It’s rare to find one painter who can do the traditional painting and the decorative, artistic side.

He also is a pleasure to work with.  I recommend him highly. 

Pam – Back Bay, Boston, MA 

When we asked Anthony to paint our house on the recommendation of a designer friend, we had already started with rather high expectations of quality work by his company.  But Anthony surpassed all our expectations, by the high level of his craftsmanship, his attention to detail, his willingness to go at every step beyond the call of duty, and by doing all of this with grace and good humor.

His company truly embodies all that is best in old world craftsmanship and job performance.  A rare find in the world today.  He has our highest unqualified recommendation.

I feel so fortunate to have found James Anthony Custom Painting to take care of all my painting needs.  Anthony is a highly skilled craftsman from Ireland who brings integrity to his work with great attention to detail and doing the job right.

It would be impossible to get better painting results than with James Anthony Custom Painting.  It is the prep and careful detailing that sets them apart. 

Anthony does the job right so it will last a long time.  The most amazing feat was the repainting of our kitchen cabinets to a point where they looked better than they did when they were new.    

 You could spend huge sums on a kitchen renovation replacing your cabinets, but we got even better results by having them painted by James Anthony Custom Painting.  Anthony is trustworthy, reliable, a pleasure to work with and keeps your home usable while on the job. I would not use anyone else for our painting needs.

Our neighbors highly recommended Anthony to paint our mid-century modern house which is not easy to paint but Anthony is a true craftsman and does beautiful work.   

He also arranged for his handyman to come on short notice to do some repairs so the painting could get done on schedule. 

He is careful, reliable, punctual and communicates well.   Anthony is the best painter we’ve used in the 25 years we’ve lived in this house.

Anthony was able to transform our old dated 1970’s wallpaper and dark blue and green covered walls for our new home purchase to a bright, airy, modern feel on time and on budget.  

Not only did he repaint but he repaired the walls as needed to make them look as if they were all newly plastered.  I would have him back in no time for our next project!

Daniel M. – Brookline, MA 

We highly recommend
James Anthony Custom Painting.

The entire inside of our lake house in Maine was repainted which was very challenging as the great room ceilings are 25 feet high.  Anthony was meticulous, is a pleasure to work with and completed the work quickly despite having to deal with a winter power outage.

The result is stunning!

Overall, we would give James Anthony Custom Painting an A+ rating.  Anthony’s demeanor, work ethic, accountability and craftsmanship are outstanding!

My wife and I cannot praise James Anthony Custom Painting enough for the paint job in our new home.  While the home was new to us, it was an old home that needed plenty of work.

Anthony helped select and expertly applied the perfect paint colors that transformed our home.  His work stands as a testament to the rigorous guild training that launched Anthony’s career in his native Ireland.

Anthony is simply the best in the business!
