Hear from Our Customers
You get a paint job that stands up to Suffolk County weather. No peeling after the first winter. No fading from summer heat and humidity. No callbacks six months later.
Your home looks better, feels fresher, and holds its value. The kind of finish that makes neighbors ask who did the work. Professional results that last years, not months.
That’s what happens when you work with contractors who understand what quality actually means.
Jaguar Renovations has been serving Suffolk County homeowners for almost ten years. We’ve seen what works and what doesn’t when it comes to painting in this climate.
No sales pressure. No hidden costs. Just honest work from contractors who understand that your home is your biggest investment. We use Benjamin Moore paints because quality matters, and we prep surfaces the right way because shortcuts always show up later.
Medford homeowners choose us because we deliver what we promise. Excellence built in, extra cost left out.
First, we come out and look at what you’re dealing with. Real assessment, honest conversation about what needs to happen. No pressure, no inflated estimates.
Next comes prep work. This is where most contractors cut corners, but it’s also where the quality of your paint job gets decided. We scrape, sand, prime, and fix what needs fixing before any paint goes on.
Then we paint. Benjamin Moore products, proper application, clean lines. We work efficiently but don’t rush the details that matter. When we’re done, your space looks professional and stays that way.

You get Benjamin Moore paints specifically chosen for Suffolk County conditions. Weather-resistant coatings that handle everything from salty air to harsh winters. Low-VOC options for healthier indoor air quality.
Surface preparation that actually prepares the surface. Scraping, sanding, priming where needed. Caulking gaps, filling holes, making sure paint has something solid to stick to.
Medford’s climate is tough on paint. Humid summers, freezing winters, and everything in between. That’s why we use materials designed for Long Island weather and apply them the way they’re supposed to be applied.
Clean work areas, protected furniture, and cleanup that leaves your home cleaner than we found it.
Quality exterior paint should last 7-10 years in Suffolk County, but that depends entirely on preparation and materials. Cheap paint or poor prep work fails in 2-3 years.
Suffolk County weather is particularly hard on paint. You’ve got salt air from the ocean, high humidity in summer, and freeze-thaw cycles in winter. Paint that isn’t designed for these conditions won’t make it.
Benjamin Moore exterior paints are formulated to handle coastal conditions. Proper surface prep and application technique make the difference between a paint job that lasts and one that starts peeling the first winter.
Late spring through early fall gives you the best conditions for exterior painting in Medford. You need temperatures between 50-85 degrees, low humidity, and no rain for at least 24 hours after application.
Summer can be tricky because of high humidity and afternoon thunderstorms. Early morning starts help avoid the worst heat and humidity. Fall is often ideal – lower humidity, stable temperatures, and fewer surprise weather changes.
Winter exterior painting is possible but requires special low-temperature paints and very careful weather watching. Most contractors avoid it because the risk of failure is too high.
It depends on what you’re painting over and what condition it’s in. Peeling paint, bare wood, or dramatic color changes always need primer. Good existing paint in similar colors might not.
Here’s the thing about primer – it’s insurance. Skipping it saves maybe $200 on materials but can cost thousands if the paint fails. Professional contractors prime when there’s any question because callbacks are expensive.
Different surfaces need different primers. Bare wood gets oil-based primer. Previously painted surfaces might get bonding primer. Stains need blocking primer. Using the right primer for the situation is what separates professional work from amateur work.
Interior painting runs $3-6 per square foot depending on prep work needed, paint quality, and room complexity. Exterior painting typically costs $2-4 per square foot of surface area.
These prices reflect quality work with proper materials. Significantly cheaper estimates usually mean corners get cut somewhere – cheaper paint, minimal prep work, or inexperienced labor. You’ll pay for it later in callbacks and early repainting.
Factors that affect cost include surface condition, paint quality, color changes, trim work, and access difficulty. A detailed estimate breaks down exactly what you’re paying for so there are no surprises.
Neutral colors remain popular in Medford because they appeal to the broadest range of buyers and complement the area’s mix of architectural styles. Benjamin Moore’s White Dove and Revere Pewter are consistently top choices.
For exteriors, consider colors that work with Suffolk County’s natural environment. Coastal blues, warm grays, and earth tones look appropriate and age well. Avoid trendy colors on exteriors unless you plan to repaint frequently.
Interior color trends are shifting toward muted greens and “in-between hues” that add personality without overwhelming the space. The key is choosing colors you’ll still love in five years, not just what’s trending now.
Look for contractors with local references, proper licensing and insurance, and detailed written estimates. Anyone can paint, but professional results require experience, quality materials, and proper technique.
Ask about their prep process specifically. How do they handle peeling paint? What primer do they use? How do they protect your belongings? The answers tell you whether they understand what quality work involves.
Get multiple estimates but don’t automatically choose the cheapest. Extremely low bids usually mean something important gets skipped. Look for contractors who explain their process, use quality materials, and have a track record of satisfied customers in your area.
