"Mr. Kris Barlow and the KBar team added a 20’x12’ patio area to my home in preparation for a new roof installation. Kris immediately contacted me when my Angi project was posted and found time the next day to meet with me face to face to discuss the project. Within the week, Kris and crew were working and 2.5 days later the project was completed!! I greatly appreciated the professionalism, including showing up at specific dates and times we agreed upon, and willingness to discuss construction options! Solid work done in a timely fashion! Thanks!!"

Small jobs welcome
I have been painting for 20 plus years with multiple outfits big and small. I have acquired multiple techniques along the way to obtain the best quality possible. I am also a perfectionist. I will not be satisfied with mediocre paint jobs. I hold myself to the highest of standards. My expertise is in residential painting. I shine in masking and spraying. I would prefer a spray job over a brush job but excel at both and last but not least I am a very clean painter. Not only will the job site stay free of clutter but I will also make sure the job is done to a perfect T. No paint spatters or crooked lines. Only honest hard work at an affordable price.

"There is no category to put Michael in. We hired him to paint and he wound up doing it all. Interior and exterior renovations and painting. He has a great eye for colors and even put hardy plank over the old stucco on our house. He made a column out of wood and stained it a beautiful dark, rich color to complement the creamed colored hardy plank. He customized our 8 x 24 pantry with wooden stained shelving, cabinets and closets. In the rest of the house he put shiplap on a couple of feature walls and painted the whole house. Very professional and reasonably priced. I will hire him again in the future for ANY other projects."

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.
