A fresh coat of paint can work wonders for your kitchen, giving it a bright, updated look while enhancing the warmth and character of your home. At Chileen Painting, we specialize in professional kitchen painting services across Minneapolis and the surrounding areas. Whether you want to modernize your space, refresh aging walls, or restore the charm of your historic home, we’re here to bring your vision to life.

​

The Benefits of Painting Your Kitchen

​

Restore Vibrancy & Brightness

Over time, kitchen walls can fade, discolor, or accumulate stains from cooking, grease, and moisture. A fresh coat of paint restores brightness and highlights design elements like cabinets, countertops, and backsplashes.

​

Improve Cleanliness & Hygiene

Kitchens see a lot of activity, and walls can become coated with grime that’s tough to remove. Repainting creates a smooth, durable surface that’s easier to clean and maintain, helping your kitchen stay fresh and sanitary.

​

Enhance the Mood & Ambiance

The right colors can transform the feel of your kitchen. Soft blues and greens create a calming atmosphere, while warm yellows and oranges add energy and cheer. We’ll help you choose colors that match your home’s style and your personal preferences.

​

Repair & Refresh Aging Walls

Older Minneapolis homes often have small cracks, holes, or uneven textures on their walls. Our professional painters prep the surface by repairing imperfections, ensuring a flawless, long-lasting finish.

Signs Your Kitchen Needs a Fresh Coat of Paint

​

Not sure if it’s time for a refresh? Here are some common signs your kitchen could benefit from a new paint job:

• Peeling or Cracking Paint – Moisture and heat can cause paint to peel or bubble.

• Stains & Grease Buildup – If cleaning no longer removes stains, it’s time for a fresh coat.

• Faded or Yellowed Walls – Sunlight and cooking fumes can dull paint over time.

• Outdated or Dull Color – A new color can completely transform your kitchen’s look and feel.

• Mold or Mildew Spots – Repainting with mold-resistant paint helps maintain a clean environment.

• Scuff Marks & Scratches – High-traffic areas show wear and tear that fresh paint can cover.

• Chalky or Powdery Texture – This indicates the paint is breaking down and needs replacement.

Preserving Minneapolis’ Homes

​

Many Minneapolis homes have unique architectural styles that require specialized painting techniques. Our team is skilled in painting and restoring the kitchens of homes from various historical periods. Some of the most common styles we work with include:

​

American Four Square (1900–1920)

A simple, boxy design with large front porches, these homes are prevalent in neighborhoods like Calhoun-Isles, Phillips, and Powderhorn. Our careful painting process preserves their charm while updating interiors with fresh colors.

​

Bungalows (1910–1930)

Cozy and full of character, bungalows are common in Powderhorn and Nokomis. We ensure your kitchen’s new paint complements the home’s natural materials and Craftsman-inspired details.

​

Craftsman Homes (1905–1930)

Known for their handcrafted woodwork and warm interiors, Craftsman homes in Powderhorn and Uptown deserve a paint job that enhances their rich details and timeless appeal.

​

Queen Anne (1880–1910)

Found in neighborhoods like Lowry Hill and Kenwood, Queen Anne homes boast intricate woodwork and vibrant colors. Our painting services help maintain their historical elegance.

​

Tudor (1920s–1940s)

With steep roofs and decorative timbering, Tudor homes in Linden Hills, East Harriet, and Kingfield near Lake Harriet benefit from expert color choices and high-quality finishes.
