Painter who does work on the islands

Mink Islander · 09-19-2015, 10:39 AM

Looking for a painter, preferably with their own boat, who does island work. Trying to get on a schedule for next year.

Thanks all.

We have used Chris Leighton on our island place. He did the interior a few years ago, and did a great job. He is actually doing our exterior right now. Very professional and capable. (603) 608-5541

We had EXCELLANT luck with Kevin Russell painting in Gilford.
603-345-2977.

Our work was on interior on the mainland, but I know he services the Islands as well

I have used both Chris Leighton and Kevin Russell. Leighton did not have his own boat, he used mine. Never a concern. Both did a good job. Log homes require outside maintenance every other year so I saw both of them a few times over our 10 year span on the island.

Forrest Noe and Sons are the best. They do island work, as well as highend lakefront work. Call Sean at 455-8370. Good luck!

Island Support Services did a great job for us (exterior paint). They'll also do repairs, additions, electrical, plumbing, etc. They have a variety of watercraft to fit the job. (603) 293-HELP. Besides painting, we use them routinely to open, close and clean. Reasonable prices.
