“My go to paint store! I’m always greeted right away, and the staff are incredibly helpful. I’ve been in several times recently on my own as a new homeowner, and never once felt like any of my questions were dumb.
They helped me figure out exactly what kind of paint to use and how much I needed to color drench my living room. Samples are affordable, and the last few visits even had great discounts.
I was especially grateful when someone suggested adding 25% white to the Sherwin-Williams Moroccan Spice shade I loved but felt was slightly too dark for my 1920s home’s original woodwork. That recommendation was perfect! It kept the moody vibe I wanted without overpowering the character of the space.
I can’t sing this location’s praises enough. I’ll definitely be back, I still have six more rooms to paint!”
“I cannot say enough about the staff here. I continue to use them over and over again because they are friendly and an absolute wealth of knowledge. I have painted several rooms in our home, as well as outdoor doors and shutters. Every single time, I have been so pleased with the results thanks to their insight. Thank you for being honest and always taking care of your customers!!! You are one of my most favorite stops!”
“I love Cottage Grove Sherwin Williams! I have bought paint there before and it was outstanding quality. Besides this, they really have a heart. I needed some paint stirring sticks to use as supports to build a foam board wall for cat safety upstairs, and they gave me a bunch for free. Thank you all SO much! You're the best!”
“I am a first time SW customer, and was wanting to get a gallon of paint to do some minor touch ups around a condo I bought years ago, and I didn't want to go the route of painting the entire unit as I loved the original color. But since I didn't know the color or brand of paint used by the previous owners; I had heard good things online about SW's expertise in color matching. So I decided to take a chance by going in with a swatch of drywall that I cut out, and took in.
Evan was so helpful in helping me selecting the right paint (I also needed to cover up some minor water spots/damage on one single wall from an overflow from a neighbor above me the year prior), and the paint that he helped me select suited the bill. I was also SUPER impressed with how dead-on the color match was. I went in with expectations it would be somewhat close, but whatever wizardry you guys have in terms of color matching technology in the back, it blows me away. I will be returning in the future. Thanks!!!”
“Shout out to Jo, who answered all my questions about poly acrylic and polyurethane. The refinished table and chairs look great. I did all the things — don’t expose the poly acrylic to extra oxygen, sanded it down between coats — everything she told me. She was very patient with my many questions about my new hobby. Many thanks!”

“I was very impressed with the staff and their knowledge on product/application and pricing and I got a, " No not a good idea", to confirm he knew what he was talking about. I tried getting a contractor discount and I was told everyone gets the same price and he had a complete list of qualified installers and even someone who prep the concrete. I will apply my own epoxy, but the concrete sanding/prep is tempting.”
“Even though I didn't go through this particular location, I just wanted to post a positive review of their customer service because I spoke to a young gentleman this morning, and he took the time to explain some processes for color matching paint, and referred me to the Robert Street location (where I went soon after to get what I needed). Thank you for your kind assistance and recommendations over the phone.”
“I highly recommend going here for your paint needs. Vic was extremely helpful! She patiently answered all of my questions and had excellent knowledge of each type of paint, color matching, wood stains, & tips for figuring out how the paint will show up based on lighting, wall color, etc.”
“Im Oscar the painter, I’ve had a great experience with this store and received a great service, especially from Daniel. He has resolved my questions and problems about all types of paints. He is very professional.”
