Painting contractor · Est. 2011
Paintwork that still looks right five winters later.
We are a small, licensed crew in Saint Paul that paints homes, condos and small commercial spaces across the Twin Cities. Careful masking, honest prep, written quotes — and a supervisor on site every single day.
Licensed & insured in Minnesota
3-year workmanship warranty
Low-VOC finishes as standard
1,480+rooms painted since 2011
Fixed written quotes
Line-itemed by room and surface. No “as-needed” extras invented halfway through the job.
Prep is 60% of the job
Fill, sand, caulk, prime. We show you the prepped surface before the first finish coat goes on.
Dates we actually keep
Start date, daily hours and finish date confirmed in writing before deposit.
Warranty in writing
Three years on workmanship — peeling, flaking or blistering from our application is on us.
What we do
Four services, done properly
We deliberately kept the list short. Everything below is work our own crew performs — we do not subcontract painting out to rotating third parties.
From $3.60 / sq ft
Exterior painting
Siding, soffits, fascia, decks, railings and garage doors — scheduled around Minnesota’s short paint season and real dew-point windows.

From $95 / door
Cabinet refinishing
Degrease, scuff, bond-prime and spray-finish in a controlled setup. A kitchen refresh without a kitchen renovation.

Evenings & weekends
Commercial & strata
Offices, clinics, corridors, stairwells and rental turnovers. After-hours scheduling so your doors stay open during the day.

★★★★★
“They spent a day and a half just on prep before any paint appeared, and you can see it in the trim. Kitchen and hallway both flawless.”
Karen M.Highland Park, Saint Paul
★★★★★
“Quote on Tuesday, start on the Monday they promised, done Thursday afternoon. Elizabeth checked in personally both days.”
Daniel R.Como Park, Saint Paul
★★★★★
“We had our clinic waiting room repainted over a weekend. Zero smell on Monday morning and not one scuff on the flooring.”

Budget planner
Rough number in 20 seconds
Useful for planning, not a quote. Enter the paintable area and we will show the range most of our jobs of that size land in. Your real price comes from the on-site walkthrough, in writing, with no obligation.
Colour help included
Not sure between three off-whites? We bring large-format samples, brush out two of your shortlist on the actual wall, and look at them in your own evening light before anything is ordered.

Common questions
Before you book
Are estimates really free?
Yes. The walkthrough, measurements and written quote cost nothing and carry no obligation. We do not use pressure closes or “today only” pricing.
Do I need to leave the house?
Almost never. We work room by room, seal off active areas with zip walls, and use low-odour waterborne products so the rest of the home stays usable.
Who supplies the paint?
We do, at trade cost passed straight through on your invoice. You keep the leftover tins and the exact colour codes.
How do payments work?
25% deposit to hold the dates, balance on completion after your punch-list walk. Card, e-transfer, cheque or ACH.
