"Absolutely the best place to use. I don't think anyone else could have done the work they did in the amount of time. We had huge cracks in our walls from settling and previous poor repairs before we bought the home. I am beyond pleased with the work they did."

"S & S Painting & Restoration did a great job. Once we were scheduled They contacted us as to the start date & came out to pressure wash our roof, which they completed in one day.. when the weather was right, they came out to apply the primer & 2 top coats to our roof. They also completed it in one day. We have a large farmhouse with a 2 story metal roof with a few different pitches & levels of roof. They were very professional & meticulous in the spraying of the paint. I would recommend their services to anyone looking for a painting company. We have another couple of buildings that we will be scheduling for next spring. We are very satisfied with their work!"

"They were clean, taped everything they could down to protect it and left things tidy when finished.. I expect that of any professional paint service but where they excelled was the consideration for my needs. I work 3rd shift and had to sleep in the home while painting was being done, I also needed to have a bathroom available to me at all times so I could get ready for work when I needed to . I expected to hear some noise as they worked but with my fan and white noise machine running I barely heard them at all. They also made sure one of my bathrooms was ready before going to the next one. I mostly communicated through text and email and whatever reasonable request I made was done. They also had a difficult task of getting a very blue wall white again and I was very pleased that they accomplished that. I would definitely recommend them and hire them again."

"By coincidence, we met Gary and Brett working on a project across the street. After speaking with Gary we asked him to quote us on repair work of our backyard patio retaining wall, which was in pretty extreme disrepair. Gary promptly gave us a quote to stabilize and beautify the patio wall. He and Brett did a wonderful job taking something that looked like trash and making it into a beautiful backyard space for our family. At that point we decided that we would like a retaining wall built in our front yard due to our very outdated and un-cared for lava rock mess. Gary and Brett, once again beautified our front yard at a very fair price. Throughout all of the work he and Brett took our considerations into every aspect of the project. We will continue to call on Gary and Brett for all our projects!"

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.
