"We strongly recommend Schultze Painting. Steve was very professional. He came over to our townhome and viewed what we wanted done. He gave us a written bid on what the project would cost and a timeline of when the project would be completed. His cost was very reasonable. He provided all the paint and supplies needed. He always took special care of the property and always cleaned up after himself. He completed the project on budget and on time. It was a pleasure to work with Steve and we would be happy to use his services again."

"You want this company to do your painting! Very professional, very courteous. THey did a fabulous job of prepping the house before painting. Aaron introduced the team to my wife prior to starting and everyone was as pleasant as Aaron was. They cleaned up daily and left the job site in great shape. I'm looking forward to having them paint the interior and cupboards this winter."

"Revel power-washed our entire house, painted all the exterior trim and garage doors, and stained our deck, all in under two days. All surfaces were scraped and prepped before painting. They even matched the color of our siding when buying paint for the garage doors. Crew members were very friendly and professional. Highly recommended!"

"Professional painting with a quick response time, attention to detail, and a fair price. Victor and Edwin painted my house to prepare for market and did a beautiful job. They walked through the house with me, gave a fair quote; and did the work the same day. Highly recommend. Top notch customer service and communication and superior quality work."

"We had our kitchen cabinets and all of the upstairs rooms painted, and the results were fantastic. They had great attention to detail and the cabinets have the finish I was looking for. The crew was professional, reliable, and kept everything clean throughout the project. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality painting work!"

"I appreciated their quick response to my project. They fit my inside project into their busy schedule to make sure the painting was done before an upcoming date when I was having new carpet installed. They arrived on time and with masks which was very much appreciated. The quality was very good and I felt it was done at a reasonable price."

"The people at Classic Finishes were professional and flexible. I had a short time frame to get my new home painted after the closing, but before moving in, and the were able to accommodate that. They were friendly and helpful, and their work was not only quick, but more importantly, it was very well done! I couldnâ t be happier!"

FAQs for painting projects in Cottage Grove, MN

You’ll need 1 gallon of paint per 350 square feet of coverage. Typical amounts per room size:

  • Small room (200-400 sq. ft.): 1 gallon.

  • Medium-sized (400-800 sq. ft.): 2-4 gallons.

  • Large (800-1,200 sq. ft.): 5-gallons or more.

Painters usually make $20 per hour on average or about $40,000 per year. Independent contractors might pocket a little more. However, they must charge for overhead, such as vehicles, equipment, insurance, marketing and association dues.

Specialty painting, like murals and trompe l’oeil, costs $40 to $50 per hour. Paint might range between $75 to $90. The professional’s skill and experience are also determining factors. While a freelance artist might charge $25 to $30 an hour, a very skilled professional might charge $80 or more. Some might also charge $60 or more for a consultation.

Trompe l'oeil creates a realistic image or optical illusion in three dimensions. Murals are composed on a wall of any size. These two projects vary in price, with a trompe l'oeil typically costing more because of its complexity. Both are considered specialty projects.
