Central Square — Cambridge, MA
Central Square is Cambridge's dense cultural district between MIT and Harvard — brick mixed-use blocks with triple-deckers and new condo towers close by.
The bulk of the work is triple-decker exteriors and occupied-unit interior repaints. We adapt the prep sequence and paint line to each home's age and substrate — no one-size-fits-all spec.
What makes Central Square projects distinct
Rental turnover timing
The student rentals in Central Square turn over fast between leases. We book turnover repaints ahead, work fast between tenants, and use durable mid-tier paint that survives the next lease without blowing the budget.
Condo & association coordination
Association-run and condo buildings are common in Central Square. We file the certificate of insurance, protect shared halls and elevators, respect quiet hours, and quote common areas separately from unit interiors.
Triple-decker work
Multi-family wood-frame — triple-deckers and two-families — fills much of Central Square. We sequence the units, schedule around tenants, and stage the three-story exterior work safely.
Pre-1978 lead-safe prep
Central Square's older wood-frame stock is largely pre-1978. Prep follows EPA RRP lead-safe practices — containment, HEPA cleanup, documented verification. We're certified.
