Twin Cities Painters Who Sweat the Details
Northlight started with a simple frustration: too many paint jobs look great for a week, then the lines bleed, the ceilings show roller marks, and the trim chips within a season. We built Northlight to be the opposite — a residential painting company obsessed with the prep and the details that make a finish actually last.
For eleven years we've painted homes across Minneapolis, Edina, and the Twin Cities metro, one careful room at a time. Every project starts with a thorough walkthrough and an honest, flat quote, followed by real preparation: patching, sanding, caulking, and priming before any color goes up. Our crews protect your floors and furniture, keep the site tidy, and clean up completely each day. We use premium low-VOC paints, back our interior work with a two-year warranty, and treat your home with the same care we'd give our own. The result is straight lines, smooth walls, and a space that feels genuinely new.

Why Our Finish Lasts
The three things that separate a paint job that holds from one that peels.
Preparation First
Patching, sanding, caulking, and priming come before color. It's slower — and it's the entire reason the finish lasts.
The Right Materials
Premium, low-VOC paints applied at the correct thickness — better coverage, truer color, and years of durability.
A Guaranteed Result
A written 2-year workmanship warranty. If a line bleeds or the finish fails, we come back and fix it, no charge.

600+ Homes, 4.9 Stars
Northlight repainted our whole main floor and the result is genuinely stunning — crisp lines, flawless ceilings, and not a single drip anywhere. What impressed me most was how tidy they were: floors covered, furniture protected, and everything put back each evening. The color consultation alone was worth it. Our home feels brand new.
We've hired painters before and always dreaded the mess and the do-overs. Northlight was the opposite — meticulous prep, straight trim lines, and a crew that clearly took pride in the work. They finished on schedule and the walls look better than when the house was built. I've already recommended them to three neighbors.
The cabinet painting transformed our kitchen for a fraction of a remodel. The finish is smooth and hard as glass — no brush marks, no smell lingering. They walked us through colors, taped everything perfectly, and cleaned up like they were never here. Honestly the best contractor experience we've had. Worth every penny.
From the color consultation to the final walkthrough, Northlight made repainting our living room and stairwell effortless. They caught wall repairs the last painter missed, matched the trim perfectly, and left the space spotless. Professional, punctual, and genuinely lovely people. Our home has never felt so bright and fresh.

Interior Painting FAQ
How much does interior painting cost?
It depends on the size of the space, the condition of the walls, the number of colors, and how much prep and repair is needed. That's why we always provide a free in-home quote with a clear, flat price — no vague per-hour estimates. Most single rooms and whole-home interiors fall into predictable ranges, and we'll walk you through exactly what's included before any work begins.
Do I need to move out or empty rooms?
Not at all. We move and protect furniture ourselves, cover floors and fixtures, and work room by room so you can stay in your home comfortably throughout the project. We just ask that you clear small valuables and personal items off surfaces we'll be painting around. Everything gets put back and the space cleaned at the end of each day.
What kind of paint do you use?
We use premium, low-VOC paints from trusted manufacturers — the kind that cover in fewer coats, hold their color, resist scuffs, and keep your indoor air clean with minimal odor. If you have a preferred brand or a specific finish in mind, we're happy to work with it. We'll recommend the right sheen for each room, from durable satins in high-traffic areas to soft matte for bedrooms.
How long will my project take?
Most single rooms take a day, and a typical whole-home interior runs a few days to a week depending on size and scope. At your quote, we'll give you a realistic start and finish date and stick to it. Because we prep thoroughly up front, the painting itself goes smoothly and predictably — no crews disappearing mid-project or open-ended timelines.
Is your work guaranteed?
Yes. Every interior painting project is backed by a written two-year workmanship warranty. If you notice a line that bled, a spot that needs touching up, or a finish issue that's on us, we come back and fix it at no charge. We're licensed and insured, and our reputation across the Twin Cities is built on standing behind our work long after the final coat.
