I would recommend Culver's Painting to anyone.Posted on Office GmailJune 10, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Culver's did a great job painting our business sign. They were professional, fairly priced and quick. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.Posted on Sharon BlumeJune 7, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Culver’s. A five star rating is genuinely earned. The sales team is extremely professional. Culver’s stands apart from others with detailed knowledge, excellent communication, timely follow up and on-time delivery of the service. The work crew arrived on-time. They were very courteous, which seems to be hard to find these days. They all knew their part of the painting prep and painting process. They cleaned up every day of the 4 day process (my home has many details, so it took time). They were meticulous in their painting— no spills, straight lines were straight, no mess on the window screens, downspouts were removed and painted and then reinstalled. The after service follow-up was timely, very professional, and wanted to ensure that I was happy with the service. You cannot go wrong in hiring Culver’s Painting.Posted on Kevin MullenJune 6, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Terrific experience with Culver painting!Posted on Sue and Con WeimerJune 4, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is the second time I have had Culvers paint my house in a 8 year period. They are professional, prompt, excel at communication, have polite clean staff, do a good job and will return to make it right if I had concerns. Fair in price also. Win win.Posted on Katy MossJune 4, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired Culver's painting for our exterior siding. We got a few quotes and theirs was the best one! They did a fantastic job and had their painters here early. They worked all day and never needed anything from us. It was an easy process and they did a fantastic job! Alex from Culver's was also great with communication and would let me know the night before what time his crew was showing up. He was very responsive whenever I had a question or concern. I would highly recommend!Posted on Kerry RickertJune 3, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent job starting with estimate, color consultation, and then painting. Very courteous and professional. The painters worked very hard and did a great job. Cleaned up and put things back in place afterwards. Would definitely recommend.Posted on SamJune 3, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great communication and customer service from bidding to completion, quiet, experienced and professional crew who did a really nice job refreshing our entire house and cleaning up every day. We gathered several bids and although Culver’s was not the cheapest, they were the most straightforward and comprehensive and didn’t deliver any surprise charges. Painting your home is a multi year investment and our money was well spent with them to achieve such a nice outcome. I would refer them without hesitation and use them again based on our experience.Posted on Linda PrenzlowMay 28, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience. Very professional. Excellent quality work. On time. Polite. Included color consultation was a nice feature. Cleaned up after themselves. Everything I expected and more. Will definitely use them again and have recommended them to friends.Posted on Julie PenmanMay 23, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The workers showed up on time, were professional and courteous. They cleaned up at the end of each day and were very neat. There were no paint splatters on my stucco or bricks. Overall they did an excellent job. I was impressed that they sent four painters and finished the entire job quite quickly. I would highly recommend Culver Painting.

We’re proud to be one of the few painting companies trusted consistently by homeowners across Milwaukee’s North Shore, where craftsmanship, communication, and professionalism matter most. Our crews frequently work throughout:
River Hills | Fox Point | Bayside | Glendale | Whitefish Bay | Mequon
If you live in River Hills, chances are your home already makes a statement. Many houses here are architectural gems — elegant colonials, modern ranches, and custom builds tucked between wooded hills and the Milwaukee River. These homes call for a painting company that respects their scale and detail.
Our team takes the time to learn your home’s story before we start. We note every trim style, siding type, and exposure angle to choose the right paint system for your property. For example:
Cedar or Redwood Siding: We use flexible coatings that expand and contract with temperature changes, preventing cracking and peeling.
Hardie Board or Fiber Cement: We use high-adhesion primers and color-rich topcoats for long-term protection.
Historic Wood Windows or Trim: We repair and repaint with care, preserving original profiles.
The goal? A flawless finish that highlights, not hides, your home’s craftsmanship.
The homes in River Hills often feature generous floor plans and tall ceilings. Our interior painters know how to manage projects of this scale efficiently while keeping everything spotless.
We take care of:
Moving and protecting furniture
Masking and sealing all non-painted surfaces
Sanding and smoothing walls for perfect texture
Applying premium paints for uniform coverage
Whether you prefer a bold, modern palette or classic neutrals, we help you choose colors that complement your home’s natural light and existing finishes.
And because River Hills homes often feature custom wood trim, built-ins, and millwork, our fine-finish painters deliver precision brushwork that enhances every architectural detail.
Between humid summers and freezing winters, Milwaukee’s climate can be brutal on exterior paint. We prepare and protect homes with a proven system:
Inspection & Prep: We identify rot, peeling, and moisture issues early.
Repairs: Our carpentry team replaces or restores damaged boards before painting.
Power Washing: We remove dirt, mildew, and oxidation.
Priming & Sealing: We lock in adhesion for longevity.
Two-Coat Finish: We apply durable coatings built for UV and moisture resistance.
We also recommend seasonal maintenance plans for homes near the river or heavily wooded areas — where humidity and shade can affect paint performance.
