"Luke was a gift! He responded quickly to my call and was able to start painting two days later. He was professional, knowledgeable, on time and always cognizant of the fact that I was working from home while he was painting. He meticulously painted my entire house and it looks amazing. I highly recommend Luke, you will not be disappointed."

"What a fabulous experience it was working with Mark and his team. Mark (the owner) responded within hours of my email inquiry as to his availability. Returned a competitive quote for materials and labor to prep, power-wash, and spray linseed oil on 4 wood buildings/structures on a large property in Del Norte. Communication was over the top! He sent daily progress pictures and was always available when I reached out. Mark ended up doing another project on the property as well. He replaced/rebuilt from scratch, a 50+ ft walkway that was in between 2 structures. Looks AMAZING! He also removed a wasp nest on one of the structures that was the size of a basketball! I am so grateful to have found Mark and Peak Pro Painters and plan on using them for upkeep on all the work they completed on the property. Thanks Mark!!"

"Phil Evans and Sons took on a difficult painting project - the walls were a dark color with a lot of overpainting. The project was done in a timely, tidy manner with a lot of effort taken to cover up the existing paint. In areas where my husband and I could continue the project (e.g., trim on the tongue and groove walls to cover the paint) he was generous with his experience providing methods to complete the project. One thing I think is really important to bring up is the communication on the project. I had read that it was difficult to find people to do smaller projects and if you did, they did not keep you informed. This was not the case with Phil and his crew (some of which were his family) as they let us know about arrival times each day and delays via text. In my experience with other projects and cities, one does not always know when someone will be showing up. Phil, and his wife Carmen, took the time to connect my dryer vent when it was discovered the existing one had holes and did not connect well. One does not want their new paint ruined by moisture from the dryer! I work from home so they did my office first and were quiet during the day. Noise is not a problem for me but I appreciated the consideration. I will contact him for other home projects in the future!"

FAQs for painting projects in La Jara, CO

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.
