About
Who you are hiring
JH Painting Services is a painting and carpentry contractor based in Marlborough, Massachusetts. Jafet Henrique founded it in 2018 and still runs the crews.
The owner
Jafet Henrique is the owner and lead painter. He is on site or reachable by phone on every job. That is the practical difference between us and a company where you meet a salesperson once and never see anyone from the office again.
The business has painted Massachusetts homes and commercial buildings for 8 years out of Marlborough. Our crews work in English, Portuguese and Spanish.
What we are licensed to do
Two credentials matter for residential painting in Massachusetts. It is worth knowing what they are before you hire anyone, including us.
- Home Improvement Contractor RegistrationMassachusetts Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation
Required in Massachusetts for residential work on owner-occupied homes of one to four units. It is what gives you access to the state Guaranty Fund and arbitration program if a job goes wrong.
We provide our current certificate with every written estimate. You can also search the public register here.
- Lead-Safe Renovation Contractor LicenseMassachusetts Department of Labor Standards
Required for any renovation, repair or painting that disturbs paint in housing built before 1978. Massachusetts runs this program itself, so the state license is the one that counts here.
We provide our current certificate with every written estimate. You can also search the public register here.
- General Liability Insurance
Covers damage to your property caused by our work. Ask for the certificate before any contractor starts.
We provide our current certificate with every written estimate.
- Workers Compensation Insurance
Covers our crew if someone is hurt on your property, so the liability does not land on your homeowner policy.
We provide our current certificate with every written estimate.
We print a license number here only once it is confirmed current. A number on a website that turns out to be expired, or to belong to a different business with a similar name, is worse than no number at all. Ask us for the certificate and check it against the state register yourself.
