"Ernesto and his crew were amazing from start to finish. He was so kind and really paid attention to detail. He re-stained and repaired our back patio railing as well as painted our farmhouse interior/exterior doors. We will definitely call him again for any painting we need done at our home. Definitely a 5 star rating."

"Luis was very professional, extremely prompt, and made me feel comfortable during the process by explaining each option thoroughly, designing a rendering of the finished look, and staying in communication. I was very happy with the results of the exterior painting that was done on my house. I highly recommend working with him and plan to do so in the future for other projects. He was easy to work with, friendly, responsive, efficient, and did a beautiful job."

"Did a phenomenal job repair my roof, a gutter downspout, and fixing fascia of the roof. They were able to color match the color of my gutter and fascia so perfectly I cannot even tell it was recently repaired. The shingles have also settled like they said they would and were very through about cleaning up after the work was complete. Tino did an excellent job explaining the work to be done making sure it was done correctly. Would definitely recommend and use again for future roofing needs."

"In addition to the roof repair, AA reinstalled 2 lightning rods on the roof. They also replaced rotted wood on three dormers and the hips on the upper balcony with Hardi-plank and painted them. Installed some new flashing as well. When I requested a quote, David responded quickly and was right on time for the first visit. Luis headed up the work and he and his crew were professional and fast. I would (will) hire these guys in a minute,"

"I had searched around for along time to find any roofing company that would repair my metal roof. Everyone either never called back or turned down the work. The people at Salvador roofing came and did an outstanding job fixing my roof. They replaced every screw with better screws than I had, put in much better vent pipe boots (this is where my roof leaks were coming from), cut the overhanging tree branches (this was causing the screws to coming out. During a heavy storm, the tree branches would beat on the roof loosing up the screws), and cleaned the roof. I was surprised they did all this work in one day. I am certainly going to contact them when I replace my siding and get the house painted"

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.
