Painters with Mitera’s Painting & Decorating prepare the upper floors of a Victorian house. The complete job on the double house on Hinman Avenue near Greenwood Street will take more than six weeks, according to Richard Mitera, who owns the firm. Mitera has been painting for 32 years. “I get the feeling that the ladders are getting heavier every single year,” he said. But he still enjoys the work. (Photo by Richard Cahan)
