"Bruce and Seth did an excellent job painting my house from prep to paint to clean-up. They not only paint, but do needed repairs as part of the prep work. Most painters just paint and move on. Bruce gives a warranty on his work, and his price is very reasonable. I plan on hiring them next year to paint another house. I recommend using Bruce W. Nichols Painting whole heartedly.

Customers say: True professional

"From working with Patty on the phone scheduling our job during Covid-19 to working with Shad and his crew, everyone has been exceptional and pleasant! On top of that, our home was treated with care as if it were their own. From power washing, caulking, to painting and staining, they took extreme care to not disturb our many plants or get paint/stain on anything other than where it belonged. I can not say enough about the friendliness and professionalism shown by the entire crew. Without a doubt, we would hire them again and highly recommend them for any paint work needed to be done, Several of our neighbors asked for business cards and we won't be surprised to see 5 Star in our neighborhood painting more homes!"

"Revive Painting painted our entire home exterior, siding, trim, gutters, columns, and chimney. They used a solid color stain on quite an extensive deck and deck framing. And, a clear stain on the underside (exposed raw 2x6 T&G Car Decking) of two gazebos/pergolas and a deck roof cover. They also moved heavy items off the deck and are willing to return and put the items back on the deck once the stain has cured. They also painted our shed including a metal roof the surrounding rusted galvanized dog enclosure and the faded vinyl fencing on our Sport Court. I found David Beer and his entire crew to be professional, talented, capable, and efficient. All had a tremendous work ethic. They were very friendly and a pleasure to work with! They required no up-front partial payment, collecting only after the job was completed. I would definitely use them again for all our painting needs. And recommend them to anyone desirous of a quality finished product using the best materials and the right materials for the task. And, a number of people out for a walk, passing by on our sidewalk have stated how great the house looks! Thank you David Beer and Crew of Revive Painting!"

"Amazing professionalism, work ethic, & a beautiful job! I cannot say enough good things about Shades of Rose & the work they did on our house painting! Their level of professionalism, communication, swiftness in getting the job done, and the beauty of what my house looks like now are amazing. I have a 1927 bungalow that needed experts in lead removal. Though the front was in good shape, the Southside of my house had started to peel and a few boards needed repair. I contacted Shades of Rose owner, Tyler, and he got back to me right away! Unlike other painting places who sent their employees, Tyler made time & came out within the week to go over details with me. He was very attentive and explained the whole process & made a quote. His quote didn't change! We scheduled a time a few months in the future and he followed up with me both a week before and then the day before to solidify the time. He also let me know that I could count on him to pick out colors & pick up the paint. This was a huge relief! I was guided about their next steps at each turn. I can't tell you how unusual this is: to have such incredible communicators who are also friendly, knowledgeable, & capable! When at first an employee didn't show up, they didn't put my project on hold. They had backup staff who were there so that my house was taken care of and painted swiftly. One of his main employees, Paul, headed up the project and he was also friendly, clear in his communication, & really knowledgeable. Tyler introduced me to him right now. They brought their team and accomplished the job with such finesse, clarity, and calm -- even in the midst of a huge downpour -- twice!!! They put down huge tarps and cleaned up after each day. A few perks that made this service even more awesome: !. Tyler gave us an Angie's list discount. 2. They painted the railing of our front porch on the last day! This was a huge amazing surprise! 3. They gave us a 3-year warranty and explained why we might need it (e.g. lighter colored paint in the sun) -- "Don't worry, Tyler told me. "Just call us and we'll come out and paint free of charge!" Did I mention they offer exceptional service? Our house looks so bright and cheerful! Several neighbors have stopped by to tell us how great it looks! They're also wondering if we're moving -- but, we're not! We're going to be enjoying what feels like to live in a house that looks new! Thanks, Tyler, Paul, Jasmine, & the whole team @ Shades of Rose Painting! We appreciate you!"

"I initially had Phoenix come out for a painting bid, but upon meeting Cody we decided to get our windows replaced through them as well. This wasn't an upsell, more that we were also thinking of getting the windows done and we liked the team's vibe. The entire process went extremely well -- they finished in less than a week, communication was solid, and they just plain got the job done. The painters (Bart and Antonio) did a great job as well."

Hey all, My name is Matt Kruger, Owner of The Premium Handyman Vancouver to Longview LLC. I've enjoyed fixing things and helping people since my very first job at Ace Hardware 20+ years ago. Over the last 2 decades, I've been able to hone in on my home remodeling/maintenance skills and am able to complete a wide variety of tasks. I decided to get licensed as a general contractor because there are a lot of home maintenance, remodeling, and fix-it tasks that many homeowners may not know how to do or don't feel comfortable doing themselves. On top of that, I noticed a lot of contractors are charging an egregious amount to homeowners, sometimes as high as $200/hr. Insane! I wanted to create a business that was ethical, fair, and honest to the people of Clark and Cowlitz County Washington. Armed with the skillsets of remodeling/maintenance/carpentry and a master's degree in business, I'm slated to utilize my skills and knowledge to best serve both you and your home.

FAQs for painting projects in Kalama, 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.
