Blackstone Valley's Go-To Painting Professionals

The Problem

Whitinsville, Hopedale, and Uxbridge were built around textile mills. The company housing — charming but aging — features unique architectural details, old-growth wood, and generations of paint. These homes have character, but they also have moisture issues, lead paint, and wood rot that's been patched dozens of times.

Our Solution

We treat mill village homes with the respect they deserve. We repair rather than replace original trim and details whenever possible. Lead paint is handled safely per EPA standards. We use historically appropriate colors while applying modern paint technology that protects these structures for decades.

The Problem

The Blackstone River corridor creates a microclimate with higher humidity and morning fog. Homes in Blackstone, Millville, Northbridge, and Uxbridge sit in this valley, and the moisture accelerates paint failure, mold growth, and wood decay — especially on north-facing walls and lower-level siding.

Our Solution

We use mildew-resistant primers and paints with anti-microbial additives for Valley homes. Proper surface prep includes treating existing mold with professional-grade solutions. We also recommend and install proper ventilation solutions for crawl spaces and attics that reduce moisture from within.

The Problem

Blackstone Valley straddles the Massachusetts-Rhode Island border. Homeowners in Blackstone, Millville, and Douglas sometimes work with RI-based painters who aren't licensed in Massachusetts — creating liability issues. And MA-licensed painters often won't cross into Woonsocket.

Our Solution

JH Painting is fully licensed and insured in Massachusetts. We serve the entire MA side of the Blackstone Valley and also handle projects in Woonsocket, RI. One contractor for the whole Valley, fully compliant on both sides of the state line.

The Problem

The Valley's humidity means driveways, patios, decks, and siding accumulate algae, moss, and mildew faster than surrounding areas. Homeowners in Sutton, Mendon, Douglas, and Upton power wash every spring, but without proper technique and detergent, the growth returns within weeks.

Our Solution

Our professional power washing uses soft-wash techniques with biodegradable mildewcide that kills growth at the root. We adjust pressure for each surface — gentle on cedar siding, stronger on concrete. The results last all season, and we offer annual maintenance plans for Valley homeowners.
