Three Generations of Minnesota Painters

Painting is in our blood.

I'm Cody — a third-generation painter. My grandfather painted. My dad painted (and taught me to stain my first deck). My uncle is a union painter leading commercial crews. Both of my brothers paint up in Brainerd. This isn't a side hustle or a franchise playbook — it's the family trade.

Grandfather

Painter

Where the family trade began — decades of hands-on craft passed down.

Father

Painter & Deck Specialist

Cody grew up on the jobsite, learning prep, paint, and deck staining at his dad's side.

Uncle

Union Painter — Lead at Weis Builders

Commercial-grade standards and union-trained discipline run in the family.

Brothers

Painters in Brainerd, MN

Two brothers painting up north — three generations, one trade.

"When you grow up with a brush in your hand, you don't cut corners. Every wall I paint, every deck I stain — my dad, my uncle, and my brothers would notice if I did it wrong. That's the standard I bring to every Twin Cities home."

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Painting Questions

Get answers to the most common questions about professional painting services in Minnesota.

Yes! We're based right here in Shoreview and have painted hundreds of homes in the Island Lake, Turtle Lake, Snail Lake, and Rice Lake Terrace neighborhoods. We know these areas well—from the established ramblers near Hodgson Road to the larger homes along the Lexington corridor.
We serve all of Vadnais Heights including the Centerville Road corridor, Vadnais Lake area, Sucker Lake neighborhood, County Road E, Edgerton Street area, and the Highway 61 corridor. Our crews are familiar with the diverse home styles throughout Vadnais Heights.
Absolutely! We provide painting services throughout White Bear Lake including Sitzer Park, Matoska Park, Downtown White Bear, Bald Eagle Lake area, Goose Lake neighborhood, and along Highway 96 corridor. The historic homes near downtown and lakefront properties are among our favorite projects.
Exterior painting in Minnesota ranges from $4,000-$12,000 depending on home size, siding type, and condition. Factors like wood rot repair, proper caulking, and weather-resistant paint grades affect the final price. We include all prep work in our estimates.
Yes! We're based in Shoreview and serve the entire Twin Cities metro including White Bear Lake, Vadnais Heights, Roseville, Arden Hills, North Oaks, Lino Lakes, Blaine, Hugo, Forest Lake, and surrounding communities. We know local building requirements and climate conditions.
The ideal exterior painting season in Minnesota is May through early October when temperatures stay consistently above 50°F. We schedule projects to avoid morning dew and late-season cold snaps. For best results, we recommend booking spring projects by March.
We're fully insured with $1 million in liability coverage through Hiscox Insurance. Minnesota doesn't require a painting license, but we carry comprehensive insurance, are EPA Lead-Safe certified, and follow all OSHA safety standards.
A typical 3-bedroom home interior takes 3-5 days, including proper prep work, priming, two coats of paint, and detailed trim work. Larger homes or those needing extensive repair may take 5-7 days. We provide accurate timelines in our estimates.
Yes, we provide a comprehensive 3-year written warranty on all painting and drywall projects—covering both labor and materials. This exceeds most competitors who offer only 1-2 year warranties. Our warranty demonstrates confidence in our workmanship.
We're official partners with Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Hirshfield's. We select the best paint for each project—using interior paints with low-VOC formulas for family homes and weather-resistant exterior paints rated for Minnesota's -30° winters and humid summers.
Absolutely! We can match any paint color from any brand—Benjamin Moore, Behr, PPG, Valspar, or custom colors. We provide a Sherwin-Williams color sample fan deck during consultation to help you find the perfect color, then match it precisely.
Yes, we provide commercial painting for offices, retail spaces, warehouses, storage facilities, HOAs, and multi-family properties throughout the Twin Cities. We offer flexible scheduling including nights and weekends to minimize business disruption, plus maintenance contracts for property managers.
Schedule your free estimate online or call us at (763) 290-2786. We'll visit your property, assess the project, and email you a detailed written estimate within 48 hours. No obligation, no high-pressure sales—just honest pricing.
Yes, we provide complete drywall services including hole patching, crack repair, water damage restoration, texture matching, and popcorn ceiling removal. Proper wall prep is essential for a quality paint job, and we include these services in our estimates when needed.
We handle most preparation—moving furniture, covering floors, and protecting fixtures. Simply remove fragile personal items from surfaces and ensure clear access to walls. We'll provide a detailed checklist when you book, and we leave your home cleaner than we found it.
Professional painters deliver faster results, superior prep work, proper product selection, and lasting quality. DIY often takes 3-4x longer with uneven results. Our 3-year warranty, $1M insurance, and expertise mean your investment is protected—and you get weekends back.
