Customers say: True professional

"Ernesto's Painting, Drywall and Construction did interior painting for me which began as covering a 14 foot ceiling and evolved to painting the living room walls, hallway and ceiling and the kitchen ceiling. Ernesto's prices are very competitive and the quality of the work is impeccable. Ernesto and his crew arrived on time and throughout the day long effort were professional, polite and friendly. Ernesto checked with with to confirm color and process as the work proceeded. Many contractors leave dirt and debris and a general mess. These guys found the broom and dustpan and swept up the floor! I strongly recommend Ernesto's Painting, Drywall and Construction for work on your home. He can be found on Angi (formerly Angie;s List)."

"We hired Joey to help us with some last minute painting before putting our house on the market. He was able to schedule and complete the work within our short time frame and did a great job! He even repaired and painted some of the base boards that our dog chewed and they look like new! Joeys prices were very reasonable. If all contractors did as well as he did, we would do more projects! If you want a reliable, professional and reasonable painter, I highly recommend Preferred Painting!"

"Five Star Painting deserves every bit of its five-star rating! I recently had the pleasure of hiring them to paint my bedroom, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, they displayed an unwavering commitment to perfection and customer satisfaction. First and foremost, the team at Five Star Painting proved their expertise by flawlessly executing my vision of custom colors in my bedroom. They took the time to understand my preferences and provided valuable recommendations to enhance the overall aesthetic. The end result was a stunning transformation that exceeded my expectations. Moreover, I had an unsightly accent wall with prior damage that needed special attention. The skilled painters at Five Star Painting expertly textured the wall, seamlessly concealing the imperfections and giving it a brand-new lease on life. Their attention to detail was evident in every stroke, ensuring a flawless finish. What truly sets Five Star Painting apart is their commitment to quality. They didn't just complete the job and leave; they went the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect. The team made multiple follow-up visits to inspect the work and make any necessary touch-ups. This level of dedication and accountability is truly commendable. Throughout the entire process, the team exhibited professionalism, courtesy, and respect for my home. They arrived on time, worked efficiently, and maintained a clean workspace. It was evident that customer satisfaction was their top priority. If you're looking for a painting company that delivers outstanding results, exceptional service, and goes above and beyond, I highly recommend Five Star Painting.

"HERC was absolutely top knotch. Everything was exceptional. Surfaces were properly prepped and primed and then painted with two coats to ensure superior results. The contractor maintained excellent communication, asking for homeowner's input whenever there was a question on how to proceed. The job was for an entire house consisting of 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, a living room, a family room, and a stairwell. Doors, baseboards, ceilings, walls, and trim were all painted to perfection. I'd hire HERC again in a heartbeat!"

FAQs for painting projects in Johnson, AR

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.
