"I have been using Dan Collins for over a year. Last year, I bought a 16-year-old house that still had builder's grade white paint throughout the interior. I arranged for a painter, who changed his mind on the day he was supposed to start. I received Dan's contact information, called him that same morning, and he was out to look at the house that afternoon. It was a large job - 2400+ square feet, with every wall, ceiilng, and piece of trim, crown molding, chair rails, etc. needing to be painted. He knew I was under a time crunch to get the work done and even though he had other jobs on his calendar, he still managed to put together a crew of 14 guys to come in over the weekend, set up scaffolding where needed, get a huge jump-start on the project. He made sure there were at least 3 guys at my house every weekday, and then arranged for another large group to come in the following weekend. The quality of the workmanship was nothing short of excellent. His guys were polite, respectful, hardworking, diligent, and every single day they cleaned up their entire work area. About 5 months later, I had his guys come back to paint our staircase, banisters, and the second floor railing which overlooks the first floor family room. Again, another excellent job. Most recently (2 weeks ago) I had his guys back again to paint the exterior trim around all our windows, our garage door, front door, two rear doors (one requiring repair due to wood rot), and once again, excellent work. In the fall, we will bring Dan back in to paint our finished basement. I wouldn't use anyone else!"

"They didn't really pay attention to detail. They slept paint on outlets door knobs window sills that another company had to clean or clear the paint so that I could open the windows lock doors and to use the outlets. They also recommended me to purchase an enormous amount of paint that I never used."

"I hired Steve to paint the exterior brick on my home. I was a little apprehensive as I knew painting brick can be difficult. Steve responded to my inquiry very quickly and provided a written quote within one day. He was professional, on time, neat and clean. Price was fair and work was expertly done. I would highly recommend Steve"

"Pat is the owner and painter. You wonâ t be getting new hires or inexperienced painters. I needed someone to not only paint but complete a number of dry wall repairs. Pat did an excellent job painting 75% of my home over 9 business days."

"Will did a great job & is EXTREMELY meticulous! He created a very detailed & professional quote and followed through on everything that he promised within that quote, with regards to the amount of work, quality of work and paint selections. He made great recommendations that helped me to get my rental home ready for sale. There were a lot of repairs from 4 years of renting to tenants and he handled that very well. The final product was excellent, looked gorgeous and received many compliments from those that toured the home for showings. I do have one warning / alert. The project took a lot longer than expected. Luckily I had some wiggle room in timing but if you have a tight deadline, make sure you’re clear about this upfront. Will is a one-man show, because of this, any issues that occur for him (illness, family, etc) does create delays. Will did everything possible to stay on schedule (late nights / early mornings / long days) but it was impossible given the fact that he had to do everything on his own. If you have the time to be flexible, Will does not disappoint!"

"We had a bathroom and 2 bedrooms painted. Abi, the owner of Colibri Construction, and his worker Roberto were both a pleasure to have in our home. They were focused on their work. The baseboard trim and the perfect lines of caulk turned out AMAZINGLY! The paint job came out beautifully. We will work with them again."

"Excellent work at a great price. Not only was he efficient, but he even did a few extra things while he was there like take the old doorbell speaker off the wall and patch it for us before painting. Would definitely use his services again."
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.
