"Marvin and his team did an amazing job. They were professional, prompt, and did an excellent job repairing drywall and painting. They were exceptionally neat and clean. We had to do nothing after they were finished. We look forward to them painting several other rooms in our house!"

"Va Painting LLC is an outstanding contractor Abdul Ahmadi was the only company from the list to come out and inspect the job site and define the requirements with me. He gave me a reasonable quote and provided a digital contract at the same time. He prepped the job area to ensure no paint dripped on the rock base of the mailbox podium and mounted the mail box and house numbers. All the HOA requirements were met for street side mailbox appearance and mounting. This is a trust worthy and diligent contractor with great respect for the client. Put VA painting as first to call for any painting job."

"Elmer was absolutely fantastic on this project. If I could give him more than 5 stars I would! He's extremely responsive to queries, very courteous, friendly and truly cares about doing a good job. I hired his company to plaster multiple cracks in the ceilings and paint the entire basement (5 areas total) -- ceilings, walls, trim, doors and baseboards. He provided the paint for the ceiling and trim, while I provided the paint for the walls. We started the project on a Wednesday so we'd have Friday as a third day for the project if needed, but Elmer and his crew finished within two days -- working 12 hours each day! Even though I'm changing the carpet in the basement, they took care to cover it up and clean up after themselves. They also laid down drop cloths across my hardwood floors leading to the basement steps to protect it. The basement looks like it belongs in a brand new house. The walls and ceilings look incredible! They caulked and sealed all the gaps between the trim and the walls, and respected my wishes to remove all light fixtures and switch plates to paint behind them. I have two more floors to go and definitely plan to call Elmer when I've saved up to move forward. Highly recommend hiring EDE Painting for your project!"

"Balteza painted my home and stained an extensive deck, retaining wall and railing surrounding the house. They then rebuilt my patio in the back yard as well as the stairs leading to the back of the house on both sides of the house, replacing rotted timber and installing all new stone surfaces. Work quality was excellent."

"The paint crew was punctual, professional, and painted my homes interior and exterior beautifully. I would absolutely recommend A&R Home Improvements for any home painting jobs and I myself plan on hiring them again for future home improvement work."
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.
