Superior Painting Boston brings cabinet painting and cabinet refinishing to Somerville homes built in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Many triple-deckers and Victorians around Davis Square and Union Square have original woodwork that needs careful stripping, sanding, and multiple coats to handle the humid continental climate moderated by the Atlantic. We match finishes to the tight kitchens typical of these older layouts while keeping doors and drawers operating smoothly.
Access in Somerville often means working around narrow lots and on-street parking near the Somerville Public Library or Powder House Square. Our crews arrive on time during posted hours and protect floors and counters in dense blocks where moving large pieces is difficult. The result is durable cabinet surfaces that stand up to daily use in households from Winter Hill to East Somerville.
We also serve adjacent streets that border Cambridge and Brookline, bringing the same surface prep and color matching used on Somerville stock. Every job starts with an on-site look at the existing finish and wood condition so the quoted work matches what the cabinets actually need.

Cabinet Painting Boston MA in Somerville — Local Notes
- •Triple-deckers common in Somerville have narrow kitchens with limited ventilation, so we use low-VOC products and allow extra cure time during humid summer months.
- •Many homes near Assembly Row and the MBTA tracks see more temperature swings that can cause wood movement; we apply primer and finish in thin, even coats to reduce cracking.
- •Tight side yards and rear porches limit on-site spraying, so doors are often removed and finished off-site then reinstalled the same day.
- •Older painted cabinets in Union Square and Davis Square frequently have multiple layers of lead-based paint that require wet sanding and HEPA cleanup before new color is applied.
