Painters in Big Lake, Saint Michael & Elk River
Your home, finished with care!
Let’s get that painting project done.
Prep first
Washed, scraped, sanded and masked before any color goes on. The prep is most of the job.
Two coats
Two full coats as standard, not one thin pass. Priced that way from the start.
One-year warranty
If the finish fails on our workmanship inside a year, we come back and fix it.
Insured crew
Licensed and insured in Minnesota. The same crew from the first day to the walkthrough.
You already know what needs doing.
The trim you keep meaning to redo. The deck that went gray. The cabinets you stopped noticing years ago. Three steps and it is off your list for the next ten years.

Walls like any painter. Wood like nobody else.
Two halves of the same company. One you will find anywhere in Minnesota, and one you will not.
Walls and ceilings
Washed, patched, sanded and masked before any color goes on. Two coats as standard, cut in by hand, floors and furniture covered from the first day.
Wood and trim
Windows, doors, trim and cabinets, stained in our own shop from a sample of your wood. One new window in a room of eleven old ones, and nobody can tell which.
Finishing, done properly.
We keep the focus tight so the quality stays high. Seven services, all built around finishing and protecting the wood and walls you already own.
Interior Painting
Walls, ceilings and trim, cut in by hand. Floors and furniture protected before a single brush comes out.

Anyone can roll on a coat. The difference is everything that happens before it. We sample, prep and protect first, and that is why the work holds up.
Free on site estimate
We look at the job, talk through options, and put honest pricing in writing. No pressure to book.
Sample and color match
We take a physical sample and work from it until the color is right, in stain or in paint. You approve before we start.
Prep and protect
Sand, fill, mask. Floors and furniture covered. This is the step that separates a finish that lasts from one that peels.
Finish by hand
Even coverage, clean lines, no drips on the casing. The details you notice every day for the next ten years.
Walkthrough and warranty
We walk the job with you before we leave, and back it with a one year workmanship warranty.
Pick a look that fits your home.
Tap a finish to see it on the wood. These are colors we work with often, in stain and in paint. Bring us a sample from your home and we match to that instead.
Try a finish
Six of the finishes we work with most often. Every one of them started as a sample from somebody's home.
Do not see your color? That is the point. Give us a piece of trim, a cabinet door, or a wall sample, and we match to it, in stain or in paint.
From the Twin Cities to the North Woods.
What homeowners ask us most.
Clear answers to what comes up before most projects. If yours is not here, a short call usually settles it.
Usually, yes. For stain we mix in our own shop, working from a physical sample of your wood until the match is right. For paint we match the color already on your walls and trim. Bring us a piece of trim, a cabinet door, a drawer front, or a chip off the wall.

It depends on room size, surfaces and product. We walk through exact pricing after a free, no obligation estimate, and you will have it in writing before anything starts.
