"Antonio did a good job with our new home. We needed someone who could get the job done fast because we had limited time to get the house painted before we needed to move in. He understood the rush and got the job done in 7 days."

"Texas Heritage Painting did a fantastic job painting our home. We got multiple bids for the job, and Texas Heritage Painting (owner Jarrod, and his entire crew) gave us the best quote AND the best customer service, by far. We asked them to paint our exterior, including basically everything except the brick (trim, soffits, gutters, downspouts, garage door, etc.). As part of the job, they replaced a couple pieces of soffit that needed repair. They did a great job all around. After the job, they followed us around the whole home and encouraged us to point out any missed spots or touch-ups, all of which they gladly fixed. Highly recommend!"

"JTP did a great job!! They were polite, friendly, worked efficiently and neatly. They brought all of the supplies needed and cleaned up after first day so they were ready to start when they got there the next day. Put the room back together when job was finished. Looked so great! Job was completed as promised and price was fair. I would recommend them to friends and use them again if needed another area painted."

"I hired Jose & team to paint the inside of my 5700 sq ft home. They painted the ceilings and walls of every room. Our walls were dark, and everything took at least 2 coats and sometimes 4 coats. They covered every bit of a room and nothing was damaged. We had been quoted 2 weeks and the entire house was done in 6 days leaving plenty of time to tidy up before a holiday. You could tell the crew has worked together for a long time, people were always moving and doing different things and the next thing I knew a room was done. Our entrance way was 25ft high by 20ft wide by 100+ ft long and ceilings to walls were all done without any scaffolding. They did this area in 3 days, 1 to tape off & 2 to paint. If there was any uncertainty, Jose was right there asking a question and offering suggestions. Working my entire career in large Corp jobs my expectations of how people work, and tackle things is high. Jose & crew are very buttoned up and have me thinking about my exterior paint needs."

Most homeowners opt for semi-gloss or high-gloss paint to make the baseboards stand out against the walls. If you’d rather keep things subtle, matching the wall sheen with eggshell or satin also works well. When your trim has nicks or dents, reach for a flatter, matte finish—it hides minor imperfections better than a shiny coat.
Stripping old paint from trim costs $1 to $3 per linear foot. Pros use specialized tools and techniques to lift away existing layers without gouging the wood, then prep the surface for a fresh finish. While it adds to your budget, proper removal protects the molding and sets the stage for a smoother, longer-lasting paint job.
Tackling the baseboards first often leads to crisper lines. Painting trim first lets you tape off the boards instead of the walls, so you’re less likely to splatter color where you don’t want it. Any stray marks on the wall get covered when you roll on the final coat, making the whole process faster and tidier.
You can absolutely paint baseboards in place. Leaving them installed avoids the risk of cracking or misaligning the boards when they’re reattached. With thorough cleaning, light sanding, and careful taping, a pro—or an experienced DIYer—can achieve a sharp, factory-smooth finish while saving you the hassle of prying off and reinstalling trim.
Painting almost always beats replacement in cost. Swapping out baseboards runs about $150 in DIY materials or roughly $1,100 with a pro, while repainting costs about $50 in supplies and $1 to $5 per square foot for labor. Unless the boards are warped or severely damaged, a fresh coat delivers the same visual upgrade for a fraction of the price.
Paintable caulk and wood filler are the go-to fixes for nail holes in baseboards. Wood filler sands flush for a glass-smooth surface, while caulk provides a flexible seal that won’t crack as the house settles. Either way, patching those tiny divots before you prime ensures your finished baseboards look seamless.
