Professional cabinet refinishing with 2K coatings, Sherwin-Williams interior and exterior painting, deck staining, and more — done with the care of a craftsman who genuinely loves the work.
Why replace when you can refinish? Summit Painting uses industrial-grade 2-component urethane — the same finish used on high-end factory cabinetry. The result is a hard, durable, flawless surface built to handle daily kitchen life for years.
Most painters use basic latex on cabinets. Shawn uses 2K — a two-component catalyst-activated coating borrowed from automotive and industrial finishing. The difference in quality is remarkable.
2K coatings cross-link chemically as they cure — creating a surface far harder than conventional paint. No chipping, no peeling from daily use.
Spray-applied in a controlled environment, 2K delivers a glass-smooth surface no brush or roller can match.
Kitchens take a beating. The 2K finish resists moisture, grease, and cleaning chemicals — staying beautiful for years.
New cabinets can run tens of thousands. Refinishing with 2K gives you a stunning, like-new kitchen for dramatically less.
Minnesota winters are brutal on paint. Shawn uses Sherwin-Williams premium exterior coatings — products engineered to flex, breathe, and hold color through freeze-thaw cycles, UV, and everything the Upper Midwest throws at a house.
From lakeside decks to log cabins, proper prep and the right stain protects your investment and keeps wood looking incredible season after season.
When Shawn paints a home, he thinks about the lasting impact it will have on how that family feels in their space every single day. That mindset shows in every cut line, every wall, every room.
Proper prep and the right coatings produce results that speak for themselves.
