Ultimate Painting

About

A painting contractor for northwest Minnesota.

Founded on standards learned running crews and managing multiple job sites at once.

Ultimate Painting is a residential painting contractor based near Erskine, working across northwest Minnesota. We handle exterior and interior painting, deck and fence staining, and cabinet and trim refinishing for homeowners throughout the region.

The company was founded in 2026, but the experience behind it goes back considerably further. Our background is in running paint crews and managing several job sites at once — scheduling the work, keeping customers informed, and answering for the quality of every job on the board. That's where our standards come from: plan the prep properly, put the scope in writing, say what you're going to do, then do it.

We started Ultimate Painting to bring that same standard directly to homeowners at a competitive price — without the layers that usually sit between a customer and the people actually doing the work. Every project is treated with respect, integrity, and clear communication from the first estimate through to the final walkthrough.

That means a written agreement that spells out the prep and the products, updates through the job rather than silence, a site tidied at the end of every day, and a walkthrough with you before anything is called finished.

01Our promises

What you can count on, every job.

These aren't marketing lines — they're what's written into every estimate we hand you.

Thorough communication

From scheduling your estimate to picking colors, setting a start date, and keeping you posted throughout the job — you're never left guessing.

Quality prep & materials

A detailed written agreement spells out the prep work and products included. We honor it and use the materials you actually chose. No shortcuts.

A clean jobsite

Drop sheets, careful masking, and a clean site every single day. Any drips or messes get cleaned up before the job is called done.

A final walkthrough

We walk the whole job with you at the end, so any touch-ups happen before we call it finished, not after. It's not done until you say it is.

02One job, three stages

Prep is most of the work.
