"Franco is a great handy man also. He has fixed things around the cabin, does great lawn maintenance and also has laid stone for a walk way and steps up to the cabin. Very trust worthy. Sends pictures of work progress, shows up when he says, returns calls promptly. We highly recommend him for yard maintenance, painting and handyman work."

Small jobs welcome

"My husband called many plumbers to come out to fix a leaky valve on our toilet. No one could get us scheduled, or worse, we never even received a return call at all. When he called A&J Remodeling, they scheduled us for the very next day! The contractor came out, arrived on time, did a great job and fixed the issue, all at a great price! He did a fantastic job, he was pleasant, respectful and knowledgeable!! He was even able to provide us referrals for someone to build us a garage, and pave a driveway. Both people he referred, immediately returned the phone calls and provided an excellent price! We will definitely call A & J Remodeling for all of our future projects and repairs! If you are looking for someone for projects you need done in your home, we highly recommend A & J Remodeling LLC - Gary & Michelle"

I keep a meticulously clean work area and I'm willing to work around any needs of my customers. My passion is working on people's homes.

FAQs for painting projects in Clayton, GA

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.
