"Amazing! A truly professional company. Great to work with. The work was exceptional! Would recommend them and hire them again for any painting we might need done. No drips, no overruns, no paint on the siding or driveway. And, they got it done in one day. A very long day but one day."

All the cabinet doors are brought to our shop to be completely refinished in an environment where the paint can properly cure.
This 1940s home looks brand new, after a complete refinishing of the siding and trim, a flat finish for the siding, satin finish for the trim, and newly constructed trellises integrated into the corner boards.

"I am very happy with the quality of the paint job that Silas Silva of KLS Painting company performed. He proved to be an excellent choice among 5 other pros who sent the quotes. He was hired for painting exterior of my house and fences. I was especially impressed with how he and his crew meticulously scrapping, sanding &oil primer of all of the imperfection of the existing shingles, replacing and repairing any areas need to be done before the paint job and the result was like I got a brand new house. My house can be considered big enough and aged so the work was very time consuming and thanks to KLS painting professionals. I strongly recommend KLS painting to anyone who needs quality & afforable painting job."

"In April / May, 2026, we worked with Missi painting on my Mom's 215 year old Colonial house in Alstead, NH. They gave us a very reasonable estimate to scrape, paint and replace some rotted boards. The crew showed up when they said they would and did a great job, my Mom was super happy with their workmanship, and actually immediately hired them to do some more work on our barn. I live out of state and personally dealt with Fernando, he was super responsive, he sent me texts and emails with the schedule, estimates, work updates, pictures etc. and was on site while the work was being done. The next time we need some painting work done Missi will be the first company I call."

"Steve reached out right away and worked me into his schedule (working through the weekend) seeing I had time restraints for this job. The kitchen cabinets came out beautiful! I am so pleased. Steve's price was also very fair. The other quote I received was nearly double what Steve quoted me to do the job. Steve has old school work ethics, values and does exactly what he says he will do. I could not be more pleased."

"I recently hired Nick and his crew to paint my upstairs guest bedroom with cathedral ceilings and they did an outstanding job. They also installed over 400 square feet of solid Brazilian Cherry Hardwood Flooring and it came out amazing. I would highly recommend Nick and Company and we will be hiring them again when we need more work done, very polite and professional. Thanks so much for a great job done. Thanks again, Kim & Cindy Doubleday Baptist Road Canterbury, NH"

FAQs for painting projects in Franklin, NH

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.
