"Christian and his team have incredible attention for detail. My house looks so beautiful now with the detailed exterior paint updates. I have also used this group to paint a deck, stain and update interior stairs, do interior painting work and install board and batten. These become not just quick projects, but works of art that bring my family so much joy. This team treats each project like itâ s for their own family with the same level of perfection and expertise. Highly recommend this group. Christian is also a great listener and made sure my visions came to life. When I struggled to make a final decision, he was very helpful at guiding me to a final choice. I am thrilled with the work this team did for our home and I love how it has come together so well. Christian has a great eye for color and design in addition to skilled painting and carpentry."

"I cannot stress enough how satisfied I am with the painting provided by EGEJ Clean. If you're in need of any painting work, look no further! When I had an unexpected guest coming over the last minute, I reached out to Steve and Michelle for help with painting my cabinets and some other miscellaneous painting tasks. They promptly provided me with a very competitive quote on Monday, started working on Tuesday, and completed the job by Thursday. What really impressed me was the dedication and hard work shown by Michelle, the owner of EGEJ Clean. She jumped right in to assist the painters with prep work, painting, and even cleanup. Not only is she a hard worker, but she is also the sweetest person you'll ever meet. I truly adored her. But wait, there is still more and probably the most important part :) - after the job was finished, I noticed a few paint stains on my brick fireplace and a couple of missed spots on the cabinets. I informed Steve about it, and to my surprise, they were back at my house the very next day at 10am. They not only fixed the issues but also repaired a hinge on one of my cabinets that no one else had been able to figure out how to fix. Now that's what I call exceptional service! The professionalism displayed by the team at EGEJ Clean was truly remarkable. They went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction. I am so impressed that I've already decided to hire them again next year for painting the exterior of my home. Oh, and one last thing that really stood out to me - they were so respectful that they even took off their shoes before entering my home. That level of consideration is simply outstanding. I highly recommend EGEJ Clean for all your painting needs."

"Brad was great. Painting is top notch. Unfortunately he was unable to install faucets and hardware on cabinets. This was in the original quote. No discount given when he was done. If I need painting done I would use him again. Professional and on time!"

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.
