Painting Services Minneapolis, MN
Owner-operated house painters serving every Minneapolis neighborhood — from Northeast craftsman bungalows to Linden Hills Tudors. Sherwin-Williams paint, two-coat coverage, hand-sanded prep, and a 3-year written warranty on every project.
House Painters Minneapolis Homeowners Trust
Minneapolis homes don't paint like a generic suburban build. Northeast bungalows have plaster walls that need skim coating before any color goes up. Linden Hills and Kingfield Tudors carry multi-tone trim packages — body, fascia, sash, and shutter colors that have to be specced surface-by-surface. Stucco exteriors in Longfellow and Nokomis need elastomeric-grade prep, not just a wash and paint. We've been doing this work across the city since 2009, and every project is run personally by owner Cody Morrison — there are no subcontractors, no rotating crews, and no sales reps between you and the painter.
Every Minneapolis project we take on uses Sherwin-Williams paint exclusively (we've been a Pro Contractor since 2018), gets two full coats over hand-sanded prep, and is backed by a 3-year written workmanship warranty. We carry $1M Hiscox general liability insurance and can submit a Certificate of Insurance directly to your condo board, HOA, or property manager before the first day on site.
We're also the painter Minneapolis property managers call for unit turnover and common-area refreshes. The same fixed-price, line-itemed quote format works whether it's one rental in Whittier or a 40-unit building in the North Loop — see our property manager program for bundled-work pricing.

Painting Services Minneapolis FAQs
Serving Shoreview, Vadnais Heights, White Bear Lake, Roseville, Arden Hills and the surrounding north-metro communities.
- Most whole-home interior repaints in Minneapolis run $4,500–$12,000 depending on square footage, ceiling height, trim scope, and patching. A typical 1920s-era bungalow in Northeast or Longfellow with walls, ceilings, and trim usually lands in the $6,500–$9,500 range. Exterior repaints on stucco or LP SmartSide homes typically run $6,000–$15,000. Every estimate is fixed-price and broken out by surface — no vague labor lines.
- Yes — Minneapolis is one of our core service areas. We work throughout the city limits including Northeast, Uptown, North Loop, Linden Hills, Kingfield, Longfellow, Powderhorn, Camden, Nokomis, Marcy-Holmes, and Downtown. We also handle the surrounding inner-ring suburbs (St. Louis Park, Edina, Golden Valley, Richfield) on the same schedule.
- Absolutely. We do on-site Sherwin-Williams ColorSnap matches and can also color-match Benjamin Moore, Behr, or any sample you bring us. Many older Minneapolis homes (Powderhorn Victorians, Linden Hills Tudors, Northeast craftsman bungalows) have multi-tone trim packages — we'll spec each color line-by-line on the written estimate.
- Exterior season in Minneapolis runs roughly mid-April through late October — anytime daytime temps reliably stay above 50°F and overnight lows above 35°F. Stucco and lap-siding repaints book first-come, first-served each spring, so reach out in February or March to lock in your week. Every exterior includes pressure wash, scrape, oil-based spot priming on bare wood, full caulk replacement at seams, and two topcoats of Sherwin-Williams Emerald or Duration.
- Minnesota doesn't require state painting licensure, but we carry $1M Hiscox general liability insurance and can email a Certificate of Insurance directly to you, your HOA, condo association, or property manager before we start work. All workmanship is backed by a 3-year written warranty against peeling, blistering, and adhesion failure on properly prepped surfaces.
- Yes. We run a dedicated commercial property manager program with up to 15% off bundled work, 48-hour response on quotes, and turnover painting for rentals. Common Minneapolis projects include unit-turn repaints in Whittier, Wedge, and Marcy-Holmes, plus common-area refreshes for North Loop and Downtown buildings.
- Yes — these are two of our most-requested services in older Minneapolis neighborhoods. We do popcorn ceiling removal with full skim coat or knockdown texture, plaster repair, and full skim-coat refinishes over plaster walls before painting. Our team carries asbestos-test kits for pre-1980s ceilings and will pause and recommend testing if needed.
