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.

"Don and his team are fantastic! From painting high ceilings to correcting poorly stained wood, they did an amazing job. He provided a fair quote, was patient regarding while we decided on the various paint colors, and maintained the schedule. They cleaned as they worked. I would definitely hire him again."

"The owner personally came to the house on the day of the call and gave a bid on the spot with and explanation of all of the aspects of the job (trim repair carpentry, pressure washing, quality of paint, etc.) He recommended stain versus paint on the shutters and other professional suggestions and was extremely personable. The crew was prompt, friendly, and kept me apprised of their progress. They sought my input for special details (color of porch ceilings) and asked for a "walk around" inspection, before they left. Outstanding! Would definitely use them again and will recommend them to my neighbors!"

FAQs for painting projects in Columbia, MS

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.
