Mac Grove Painting completed a comprehensive interior painting project at a beautifully updated mid-century home in Saint Paul’s Highland Park neighborhood, tackling both cosmetic and structural surface challenges throughout the kitchen and entry areas. Before any painting could begin, the crew addressed existing water damage in the ceiling — carefully repairing affected areas to ensure a sound, stable substrate. From there, they removed the outdated popcorn ceiling texture and meticulously skim-coated the surface to achieve a flawless level 5 finish, the highest standard in drywall finishing and the ideal foundation for a refined, modern look.

Once the ceiling prep work was complete, the team applied a fresh coat of flat ceiling paint, eliminating every trace of the old texture and delivering a smooth, even result that reads as clean and intentional as the rest of the home’s updated interior. The kitchen walls and hall and entry areas were then painted in a rich, sophisticated dark gray — a bold choice that complements the home’s striking white cabinetry, marble-look countertops, and contemporary fixtures. The careful cutting-in around trim, doors, and recessed lighting reflects the attention to detail that defines Mac Grove Painting’s residential interior painting work.

The finished spaces feel cohesive, elevated, and live-in ready — a testament to what skilled surface preparation and quality interior painting services can do for a home. For homeowners in Highland Park, Saint Paul, and surrounding Twin Cities neighborhoods looking to refresh their interiors with expert craftsmanship, this project is a strong example of Mac Grove Painting’s commitment to lasting, professional results.
