A good number of homes here have significant architectural trim — dentil moulding, corner boards, pediments. That is brush work, and it is worth pricing separately so you can see what the detail costs.

What we do here
Exterior painting in Southborough
Wash, scrape, sand, prime every bare board, two finish coats. The New England exterior season is short — we plan the calendar around it, not around our backlog.
$3,000 – $20,000 depending on size, height and prepInterior painting in Southborough
Most interior work happens in a house someone is still living in. That changes everything about how a crew should behave — and it is the part most contractors never write down.
$2 – $6 per sq ft of floor area; $200 – $1,700 per roomCabinet painting in Southborough
The same kitchen, a fifth of the price of new cabinets, and you keep the boxes that were built better than anything you can buy today.
$1,200 – $6,000 for a typical kitchenCarpentry & rot repair in Southborough
Paint does not fix rot, it hides it for a season. We carry in-house carpenters so the repair and the paint are one job, one warranty and one company to call.
Quoted per item; typical repairs $15 – $30 per linear footDecks & fences in Southborough
A deck is the hardest-working horizontal surface on your property. It also gets refinished more often than anything else, so the question that matters is what it costs you over ten years.
$1.50 – $4.00 per sq ft, plus stripping where neededHouse & power washing in Southborough
Most “pressure washing” damage in this area is done by pressure. On wood siding we use low pressure and the right cleaner, because a wand at 3,000 psi puts water where it does not belong.

Two jobs people start themselves on a Saturday and regret by Sunday. Both are mostly about what you do to the surface afterwards.

You compare it with anyone else’s
We would rather you did. Here are the questions to ask all of us.
We recently had the exterior of our house painted by Target Painting, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. Alex and Hector did an outstanding job and were extremely careful, skilled, and attentive to detail throughout the project… The quality of the preparation and painting was excellent, and the finished house looks terrific.
Target Painting worked really hard to restore and paint my home. The home needed a lot of carpentry work on the south side. Target replaced/repaired all of the trim that needed attention. Then they cleaned the gutters, power-washed, caulked and prepped all surfaces for painting. The job was done correctly and not rushed. I will have Target back for several other projects I have coming up.
I have used Target painting now for both interior and exterior painting. The exterior was just finished and they did an excellent job. Big shout out to Joe and Matheus for getting my house painted to perfection. I highly recommend this company.
FAQ
Painting in Southborough — common questions
How much does it cost to paint a house in Southborough?
A full exterior repaint in Massachusetts runs $3,000 – $5,000 under 1,500 sq ft, $5,000 – $9,000 for a standard colonial and $8,000 – $14,000 at 2,500 – 3,500 sq ft. Southborough sits inside those bands. Get a range for your specific house with our estimate tool, or see the full published price list.
Do you have references in Southborough?
Yes. We have 157 reviews on Angi at 4.9★ and 166 on Google, and we are happy to give you addresses of recent jobs near you so you can drive past and look at the trim yourself. That is the only reference that really counts.
My Southborough house was built before 1978. What changes?
Massachusetts lead-safe renovation rules apply once a job disturbs more than 6 sq ft of painted surface in a room or 20 sq ft outside, and to any window replacement at any size. Work above those lines must be done by a licensed Lead-Safe Renovation Contractor and costs roughly 15–30% more. Most of Southborough’s housing stock is affected.
Target Painting is not currently a Massachusetts-licensed Lead-Safe Renovation Contractor, so we do not quote work above these thresholds in a pre-1978 home. We will say so at the walk-through and point you to firms that are licensed. The thresholds and how to check any contractor →
How quickly can you get to Southborough?
Our main office is on Boston Post Road in Sudbury with a second office on Thoreau Street in Concord, so Southborough is a short run for a crew. Interiors and cabinets typically book within two to three weeks year-round; exteriors between April and June are the tightest window of the year.
