"Christian and Nico show tremendous attention to detail in their work which results in a truly professional finished product. Their prices are well below the quality of their work. Additionally, they were very responsive to questions and moving things around some changes to my schedule. I called around to 5 different painting companies when getting quotes, don't waste your time and just reach out to Painting Plus first."

"These guys are great! I have a few cabinet doors that needed to be painted to finish up a kitchen cabinet refacing project we started before we moved into our condo. We reached out to multiple people to get a quote for painting just a few cabinet doors. We were on a budget, and I didn't think we'd be able to get the work done until we could save up more, but these guys are so nice that they offered to work with us on our budget - it truly felt like a Christmas miracle (I may have teared up, it was so kind)! They did a great job painting the cabinets and turned them around in just a couple of days, even though I told them they could take their time. In the future, we hope to repaint all the walls in our home, and I will reach out to Color Cat Painting when the time comes!"

"We were so impressed with everyone who worked on our home interior painting. Mike was very professional and was always available if we had questions. The crew also were very professional, courteous and helpful. They did an amazing job painting with beautiful results! We had absolutely no complaints at all. We will wholeheartedly recommend this company to anyone who wants painting done. As soon as spring arrives we plan on asking them to repaint the exterior of our house next. I am sure we will be just as pleased."

"From the very detailed proposal to the completed project I was totally impressed. Antonio and his team did an excellent job of painting the house and garden shed. I was kept informed throughout with detailed status of work completed and next steps. I was most impressed with the prep work (pressure washing, scraping, sanding and identification of areas requiring special attention) that was completed before the first paint was applied. This effort ensured a superior appearance when painting was finished. Not the lowest bidder but well worth the price!"

"Certapro Painters did a great job, painting my decks and exterior trimmings of my house. The paint on my decks was perfectly done including the color and the quality of paint they used. Mr W Tierney and Nicki explained to me all the works to be done from start to finish and answered all my questions and concerns. They did an amazing job, I’m a satisfied customer"

"K&D Quality Painting went the extra mile to make sure the job was done right and the house looks great. The price was reasonable there were no hidden costs and they did what they said they would do plus more. We will need to paint the interior of the house soon and I won't hesitant to have them do that also. I got cards from them to give to our neighbors and have passed out a few who asked who painted your house it looks good. Great company highly recommend them to do the job right the first time."

FAQs for painting projects in Gig Harbor, WA

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.
