Popcorn ceiling removal, painting and drywall in White Bear Lake, MN.

The thing we are known for

Popcorn ceilings, gone for good

Most companies wet scrape popcorn texture and leave you a swamp. We sand it off with a Festool machine that pulls the dust straight into a vacuum as it works, so the texture comes off dry and the room stays livable. Then the ceiling gets repaired, skim coated flat, and primed for paint.

When the ceiling is done, a cleaning crew comes through, and we offer duct cleaning as well, so the dust does not come back out of the vents a week later. Drag the handle across the photo and you will see why people do this to every room in the house.

A messy job, done cleanly

We ask every customer why they picked us. The same three answers keep coming back.

Cleanliness

Floors filmed, furniture wrapped, rooms sealed, dust extracted at the tool. A cleaning crew comes through when the work is done.

Communication

You meet the project manager, you meet the crew, and you hear from us before anything changes. No guessing what is happening in your own house.

Professionalism

We show up when we said we would, walk the finished job with you, and do not pack up until you are happy with it.

People notice the difference

I hired MN Paint Pros to remove my popcorn ceilings, and they are a very professional company. From the original consult to the project manager introducing me to the crew, and even checking in with both me and the crew, their service was exceptional. I can't say enough how happy I am with the results; it makes the whole house brighter.

Matt, owner, visited our home to discuss removing the popcorn from all our ceilings. We discussed options, flat or knock-down replacement, my wife chose flat. We discussed pricing, got a military discount and signed the contract. The crew came while we were on vacation and we came back to a whole house with new beautiful ceilings. Thanks Matt and your crew.

Very hard, detailed and polite workers! They removed a huge popcorn ceiling and knew what to do with sections of the ceiling that was hidden by the popcorn. Did a thorough job in cleaning up. Left us with a beautiful ceiling! Thank you!

The MN Paint Pros are experienced and professional. They exceeded my expectations and I'm impressed with the work they did. Not only were they fast and efficient but I felt they really took extra care and were patient in answering all of my questions. I appreciated their flexibility and will definitely be contacting them again for my next home project. Loving my beautiful new walls.

I had my popcorn ceilings removed and had them redone in flat. The quality of their work and attention to detail is second to none. The best part is they sent in a cleaning crew and cleaned everything when it was done. If anyone has done this, you know the mess it leaves. Matt is great to work with, the communication during the project was awesome and the work crew did a fantastic job from covering everything to the quality of their workmanship.

MN Paint Pros promptly responded to my inquiry online and gave me a detailed explanation on the process and quote. They arrived as scheduled and with all the equipment necessary to complete the project in a timely manner. They took their time with preparing the area for a successful and smooth process, they were not rushing to get the job done but get it completed to my satisfaction. I am so pleased with the results and their professionalism.

I had a great experience. I had my entire upper level painted and also had two ceilings knocked down. It's a messy job, but they did their best to contain the dust and then had a cleaning team come in after everything was done. Matt was not only professional, but also personable and paid a lot of attention to the detail and final inspection to make sure I was happy with everything.

We had our popcorn ceilings removed. They did EXCELLENT work! Professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. We were kept in the loop on everything. We will be using their services when we have our walls painted. Top notch!

I got estimates from 4 different painting contractors. MN Paint Pros was competitive with the other three, but they also had a better scope of work than the other three. Their crew was professional and punctual, their office was easy to communicate with, and Matt was super helpful with recommendations on which paint to use. Overall very happy with how the project turned out.

We had the popcorn ceilings removed from the majority of our house and replaced with knock down. MN Paint Pros did a nice job. They had to fix one spot in a bedroom but did so quickly and satisfactorily.
