The Painter’s Plastering Blog is updated monthly by Dave Carrigan Jr, owner of Carrigan Painting, featuring recent projects in Amherst and surrounding suburbs. Each post includes photos (typically a dozen or more) and sometimes videos showcasing our workmanship. Projects are organized by town and service type for easy browsing.
