"I like that he was detailed oriented and noticed some cracks in the wall that needed repairing. He also gave good advice on paint quality. The only thing that I wasn't thrilled about was that we had to reschedule a few times because another job was taking much longer than anticipated."

"I was recommended to Marty. I was not sure of his work. The day he came to give me an estimate, the first thing he did, he handed me his business card and introduced himself. Marty put on some shoe covers to keep my home clean (I'm selling it). I was VERY impressed. The day of, he was PROMPT!! Marty came and did ALL my honey doo's. I will highly recommend him. I had plumbing, sheet rock, electrical and some painting. Marty did it all. I was very happy and satisfied with his work. Thanks Marty... Marty went out of his way to finish all my work... with all his equipment. Very helpful, funny, and respectable, I give him a "10" Stela"

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.
