"Hired this painter to paint multiple rooms as well as my cabinets. Her quote was fair and much much cheaper than most painters I looked at and her work was much better. You would think you would have to pay an arm and a leg to get excellent work now days. I got the feeling she was just out to do a good job and not rip off her client at the same time. I was thoroughly pleased with her attention to detail and perfectionism in the final product. Would highly recommend her to anyone if they are looking for a revamp of their home because she will make it look as good as hers is what it felt like to me."

"Jose and his crew replaced old wood retaining walls. They installed the posts at a deeper depth and also cemented them at the base. 2x6's were used for the walls and secured to the posts with 3/8 x 3" galvanized lag bolts. will hire them for other projects. Work was done in a very short time. All debris was cleaned up after. extremely pleased with the quality and aesthetics of the work done."

"Kat's Paints & Designs came in and set up. They started by laying down there Drop Cloth so when painting they wouldn't get any paint splatter from the rollers. Then she took down the cabinet doors along with the hardware and laying them to the side. Numbering each cabinet door as she went so they could be put in there same exact spot.
She then put primer on the walls, cabinets and cabinet doors. Lets dry over night. The next day Kat's Paint & Designs came in and put color on the cabinets, walls and trim. Took the hardware from the cabinets and cleaned them all good so they could be painted and reused. When the paint on the walls had a chance to dry she then applied a 2nd coat to finish then off. She then painted the trim and had put back up. Applied 2nd coat to all the cabinets let dry then applied a clear coat. After all was dry she put all the hardware back on and hung the cabinet doors back.
All was done Kats Paint & Designs cleaned up all their stuff and called it a Job done!"

"Mr Webb's work is very good and my wife and I are very pleased with his work, cost and work time. We have used Complete Home Repair for several small repairs this year and have always been very pleased. He shows up when he says he will and gets the job done. So when we planned this latest project, we did not hesitate to call them and in fact did not even think about any one else.
We have in mind some other projects around here and will certainly call them first. We found Complete Home Repair on Angie's list and have even found others for HVAC etc.

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.
