Painting the Village.
Locals just call it “the Village.” If you’ve wandered the bookshops on Harris Avenue or grabbed a pastry at Colophon, you already know Fairhaven has a character all its own. The Victorians and early Craftsmans lining these streets date to the 1890s. Many still have their original wood siding under layers of old lead paint, which changes how a job gets prepped.
Our crews are EPA Lead-Safe certified and know how to honor the character of these older homes while giving them a finish that holds up to the salt air rolling off the ferry terminal. We use marine-grade primers and top coats on every exterior job in Fairhaven. Standard paint does not survive this microclimate.
What Fairhaven homes need.
Common home styles
Victorian-era homes (1890s-1910s), Craftsman bungalows, historic commercial buildings along Harris Avenue, and newer condos near the village center.
Popular projects
Lead-safe exterior repaints on historic wood siding, trim and detail restoration, color consultation for period-appropriate palettes, and interior updates in converted historic spaces.
Climate & prep considerations
The Village sits right on the waterfront. Salt air and marine moisture never let up here, so every exterior job gets marine-grade primer and top coats.
