Big Stone Lake's Painting & Drywall Contractor
Ortonville sits on the Minnesota side of Big Stone Lake, right on the South Dakota border. That location means we see a mix of older homes in town, lake properties along the shoreline, and rural farmsteads spread across one of western Minnesota's least densely populated counties.
Big Stone Lake is the source of the Minnesota River, and the moisture that comes with 26 miles of lake frontage affects everything from basement humidity to how quickly exterior paint weathers. We prep for those conditions specifically, not with generic one-size products.
Ortonville, Clinton, Graceville, Beardsley, and the rural townships each have their own housing stock. Turn-of-the-century Main Street buildings in Ortonville, Graceville's brick commercial district, and generations-old farm homes that have been added onto and patched. We have worked on all of it.

Big Stone County is not a huge market. That means when we are on your project, we are not juggling ten others across a metro area.
"Our place on Big Stone Lake needed the whole exterior stripped and repainted. Two other guys gave us quotes and never followed up. Kevin showed up on time, gave us a number, and his crew started the next week. Paint looks great and they cleaned up every day before they left."

Owner Kevin Stallman does every estimate personally and has been working in the Ortonville area since 2013. Despite our name, painting is a major part of our business — we offer a complete prep-first approach that includes surface repair, priming, and professional application so the finish actually lasts, especially on Big Stone Lake properties that take extra weather punishment.
Exterior painting costs depend on the size of the home, the condition of the existing paint, the type of siding, and how much prep work is needed. A house with peeling paint that needs full scraping and priming costs more than a home with solid existing paint that just needs a fresh coat. Big Stone Lake properties often need more prep due to wind and moisture exposure. Call Kevin at (320) 288-6171 for a free, no-obligation estimate — he handles every one personally.
Yes. We serve all of Big Stone County including Ortonville, Clinton, Graceville, Beardsley, the Big Stone Lake shoreline, and all surrounding rural areas and townships. Whether it is a lakefront home on Big Stone, a commercial building in Graceville, or a farmstead in the county, we bring the same quality and reliability to every project.
Yes — lake home work is a significant part of what we do in Big Stone County. Big Stone Lake is 26 miles of shoreline, and properties along it deal with constant moisture exposure, wind, and the freeze-thaw cycles that come with waterfront living in Minnesota. We use moisture-resistant drywall in wet areas, proper primers for lake-condition adhesion, and exterior coatings rated for the UV and wind exposure. Whether you need drywall repair from water damage, a full interior repaint, or your exterior redone, we handle it all.
Yes. Popcorn ceiling removal is one of our most popular services. We contain the area, remove the old texture, skim coat the ceiling smooth, and prime it for paint. Many Ortonville homeowners and lake cabin owners pair popcorn removal with a full interior repaint to modernize the look of the space. The difference is dramatic — homes look years newer once the popcorn is gone.
Yes. We offer cabinet refinishing and door spraying out of our paint shop in Morris. Spraying doors and cabinets in a controlled shop environment gives you a factory-smooth finish that is extremely difficult to achieve with brushes and rollers on-site. We can refinish existing cabinets to update the look of your kitchen or bathroom without the cost of a full replacement, and we spray interior doors for a clean, professional finish with no brush marks. Ask Kevin about cabinet refinishing and millwork finishing when you call for your estimate at (320) 288-6171.
Yes — that is our specialty. Our full turnkey service covers drywall installation, finishing, texturing, priming, and painting. One crew, one standard, one contractor to deal with. This is especially valuable for Big Stone County homeowners who do not want to coordinate between a drywall crew, a texture crew, and a painter — we handle the entire interior finish from studs to painted walls.
Call Kevin directly at (320) 288-6171 or fill out the contact form on this page. Kevin handles every estimate personally — you talk to the owner, not a salesperson. He can typically schedule a walkthrough for Ortonville-area projects within a day or two.
