Lake Elmo

Project Photos

Mac Grove Painting recently completed an exterior painting project on a stunning new construction home in Lake Elmo, Minnesota — one of the Twin Cities metro’s most sought-after communities for upscale residential builds. Situated in a prestigious Lake Elmo neighborhood, this craftsman-influenced home features LP siding, a charming dormer, board-and-batten gable details, and natural stone accents that demanded careful attention during the outdoor paint application. The Mac Grove crew arrived on-site during active construction, working efficiently around the ongoing build to keep the project on schedule. As seen in the photos, multiple painters worked simultaneously on ladders across the full height of the home, ensuring thorough, even coverage across every elevation of the LP siding exterior.

For this new construction exterior painting project, the team applied Sherwin-Williams Duration, one of the most trusted and durable exterior paint lines available for residential siding applications. Duration’s advanced formula provides exceptional adhesion, moisture resistance, and long-term color retention — qualities that are especially important for LP siding in Minnesota’s demanding climate. The painters took care to work methodically across each course of siding, cutting in cleanly around windows, trim, and the home’s distinctive stone foundation, ensuring sharp lines and consistent coverage throughout the entire exterior paint job. The crisp white trim work visible around the windows and fascia was carefully masked and coated to complement the warm body color, giving the home a polished, finished appearance even before construction was fully complete.

This Lake Elmo new construction painting project is a strong example of Mac Grove Painting’s ability to deliver high-quality exterior painting services in an active job site environment. Working on new LP siding with Sherwin-Williams Duration means this homeowner can expect a long-lasting, low-maintenance finish that holds up beautifully through years of Minnesota freeze-thaw cycles and UV exposure. From the stone-accented foundation to the peak of the dormer, every surface received the same level of care and craftsmanship that Mac Grove Painting brings to every residential project across the greater St. Paul and Twin Cities metro area.
