Elk River interior painting for older and newer homes
If you need interior painting in Elk River, the first question is what kind of house you have, because the town has both kinds. Older homes near downtown and the river have original wood trim, older ceilings, and window frames that have been varnished a few times over. Neighborhoods built since the 1990s have builder paint and oak cabinets. Steve Greene Painting works on both, and we prep each one for what it is before any finish goes on. We're rated 5 stars on Google and the estimate is free.
Elk River is the Sherburne County seat, where the Elk River meets the Mississippi and Highways 10 and 169 come together. It's the northeast corner of the area we serve. The work we're set up for here falls into three groups: oak cabinets the owners want painted, trim and window frames that have faded or been painted badly, and ceilings with old water stains from ice dams. Those three are the core of what we do.

Services
Interior Work for Elk River Homes
Stain and Varnish Work
Original wood trim in older Elk River homes is often worth saving. We clean, repair and re-coat it rather than paint over grain that can't be brought back once it's covered.
Window Frame Staining
Sun-faded window frames and sills get sanded, re-stained and varnished. One of our Google reviewers had every window frame in the house redone and could hardly believe the difference.
Cabinet Enamel
Oak cabinets from the 1990s and 2000s converted to a sprayed enamel finish, with the grain filled where you want a smooth modern look.
Water-Damaged Ceiling Restoration
Ice dams are a fact of life in Sherburne County winters. We seal the stain, repair the damage, match the texture and repaint the whole ceiling.
Popcorn Texture Removal
Popcorn ceilings in older homes get tested where needed, wetted, scraped and smoothed so they're ready for a clean coat.

Steve + Team did a phenomenal job painting all 4400 sq ft interior painting while we were on vacation for a week, even finishing the job early! They fixed drywall errors (of which I was oblivious prior to him pointing out the flaws in the initial quote), touched up the enamel/molding, and did a beautiful job beyond our expectations even cleaning up so well after themselves. We were beyond impressed and would absolutely hire them again and recommend others do the same!
Paul and Kim ShipleySep 2024 · GoogleOn my main level, Steve painted my oak kitchen cabinets, fixed my ceiling and then resprayed the entire ceiling. I added on to the project and had the downstairs painted. Steve and his team did a great job. I was impressed with the responsiveness and attention to detail. I couldn’t be happier with the results and would definitely recommend!
Valerie KilianOct 2023 · GoogleOur wooden window sills/frames needed some repair, and we hired Steve and his team to re-stain and varnish all the window frames in our house. I can't believe the difference. Many of them were faded and some looked like the wood was starting to rot. After Steve and his team were here, they look completely different. They did a great job, and I would definitely hire them again. Steve is very knowledgeable and takes the time to explain his process.
Lorrie LabofskyOct 2022 · GoogleWe hired Steve to white enamel our main level cabinets, molding and stairwell which initially were oak. The finished product was beautiful and he did such an exceptional job that we additionally had him paint our ceiling and walls. Steve is extremely knowledgeable, reliable and easy to work with. He is committed to providing high quality services at reasonable costs. We will definitely be using him again for future projects!
