- Linear footage of trim

- Painting scope
How Long It Takes
Trim replacement is typically a 3–10 day job depending on linear footage and how much rot is found.

Answers
Exterior Trim in Arlington — FAQ
Trim sits at every horizontal surface and every transition — window heads, corners, rakes, water tables — which is exactly where water lands and sits. Add unsealed end cuts and missing head flashing and it fails years before the field siding.

Setbacks — R1 Single-Family (R0/R1 row, Zoning Bylaw 5.4.2)
Front 25 ft · side 10 ft. Setbacks are set by zoning district, so confirm which district your lot is in before siting an addition or deck — we check it as part of the estimate.
Arlington has a local historic district
If your home falls inside it, exterior changes — siding, windows, roofing material, additions visible from the street — need Historic District Commission review before the building permit issues. That review adds time, so we file it early rather than discovering it mid-project. Commission details.
About RS Development Group
A Marlborough Contractor Built on Structural Expertise
Founded in 2008 by Rogerio Alves, RS Development Group has grown from a specialist framing crew into a full-service general contractor serving 109 cities and towns across Massachusetts. We're proud to bring that same craftsmanship to Arlington and the Greater Boston area.
