House painters in Princeton, MN
Princeton sits about 15 miles west of our Isanti shop — a scenic quarter-hour along the roads that follow the Rum River. It's a town with real history: a walkable, brick-fronted downtown, streets of century-old homes, and quiet river and rural properties spreading out toward the county line. Welle's Contracting is glad to make that short drive west and paint them all.
Straddling the Mille Lacs and Sherburne county line, Princeton grew up around the Rum River and still wears that heritage proudly. You'll find stately older homes near the downtown historic district, comfortable family neighborhoods, and a scattering of cabins and acreage properties out where the streets give way to woods and water. Each of those settings asks something a little different of a paint job — and we're set up to handle every one.

- Interior painting — walls, ceilings, and trim for downtown-district homes and newer builds alike, with tidy work and clean lines.
- Exterior painting — siding, trim, porches, and decks finished to weather riverside humidity and hard Minnesota winters.
- Cabinet refinishing — a brighter kitchen for a small fraction of a full Princeton remodel.
- Furniture & built-ins — refinishing antiques, shelving, and well-loved cabin pieces.
Historic homes near downtown deserve meticulous prep
Princeton's oldest neighborhoods, built in the river town's early days, are full of houses carrying generations of character — and generations of paint. On aging wood siding, ornate trim, and covered front porches, a finish is only ever as good as the prep beneath it. We take the slow, careful steps others rush past: scraping loose layers, sanding smooth, spot-priming bare wood, and sealing gaps before the first topcoat goes on. That's how a historic Princeton home keeps both its charm and its protection.
River properties, cabins & the short drive west
Beyond downtown, Princeton stretches into rural acreage and river lots where cabins, sheds, and outbuildings need a fresh coat as much as the main house does. Sitting just 15 miles east in Isanti, we don't treat those out-of-the-way places as a hassle — the 25-minute drive west is an easy one. It means honest scheduling, estimates done in person, and a painter who already knows the area rather than a crew shipped up from the metro.
