The Port — formerly Area 4 — is a dense working-class core of triple-deckers, rowhouses, and brick tenements near MIT.
Here the work runs to multi-family exterior repaints and occupied two- and three-family interiors. Every home gets a spec matched to its era, substrate, and exposure, not a template.
What makes The Port projects distinct
Turnover-repaint timing
The student rentals in The Port 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.
Managed-building coordination
The Port has a lot of condo and association-run buildings. We provide the COI up front, protect the shared entries and elevators, work within building hours, and quote hallways separately.
Triple-decker & multi-family coordination
Triple-deckers and two- and three-family homes make up much of The Port. We work access across the units, schedule around occupants, and bring proper staging and insurance for three-story exteriors.
Pre-1978 lead-safe prep
The Port's older wood-frame stock is largely pre-1978. Prep follows EPA RRP lead-safe practices — containment, HEPA cleanup, documented verification. We're certified.
Cost reference for The Port projects
Cambridge projects here run in the mid range of typical Massachusetts contractor market data, depending on scope and prep. See the Massachusetts cost reference and interior painting in Cambridge.
