"It went exceptionally well! We discussed a price, within minutes the house was pressure cleaned, then a day later his crew showed up, made the necessary trim and stucco repairs, they removed the chipping paint and painted the trim and two story house in one day. The paint is thick and rich, the trim gleams. James White and his team did an excellent job. Neighbors liked it so much, four neighbors had him do their homes. The neighborhood looks great! James White and his team are good!"

"The artists who created the beautiful one-of-a-kind artwork for my home were absolutely amazing! The work they did turned out even better than I had imagined it could. Ian and Jono have given my home my personal story that I will enjoy everyday and will also share with my family and friends. It is such a transformation from a bare painted wall into a work of art! I highly recommend them for a quality job that will give you joy everyday as you see your vision become real. What an incredible experience! Thank you, Jeanine and your entire staff!"

"I Recently had the pleasure of working with Idan Mizrahi and Viktor Hohlov, who installed new windows and did a full exterior paint job on my house. From start to finish, they showed true professionalism, exceptional skill, and a genuine commitment to high quality work. The windows installation was seamless- they handled everything with precision and care, ensuring each window fit perfectly and looked great. As for the exterior painting, the results were beyond my expectations. they used a meticulous spray-painting technique that provided full, even coverage over my stucco, giving my house fresh, modern look. plus, they really cared about my landscaping and keeping the roof from excess spray. What impressed me most was their attention to detail and respect my property. they kept the work clean, communicated regularly, and were responsive to any question I had. It's clear they take pride in what they do, and it shows the outstanding results. I highly recommend Idan and Viktor for anyone looking to upgrade their home. I am defiantly going to u use them in the near future for more inside work this time."

FAQs for painting projects in East Los Angeles, CA

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.
