"Extremely happy with the job. Bluefox Painting washed the tile roof of our single-family home, pressure washed, repaired and painted the entire exterior walls, including the garage door, the exterior lamps, all the trim and the main door. The crew was here with a supervisor on time and on the day we had scheduled. We had no issues with the job nor the paint colors that were chosen. Top-notch service and quality of the job, we highly recommend them."

"Jose and his crew do fantastic work. We have hired them for several projects. The first one was painting our family room with 20 foot ceilings and kitchen. Amazing job. Most recently they painted our garage and front doors at our vacation rental home. They are always very professional, reliable, ontime and their workmanship is excellent! Highly recommend Jose and his crew for any of your painting projects."

"The owner, Jason, and his crew are excellent painters. My home looks beautiful. Very professional and courteous. Left everything inside the house neat and clean at the end of the work day and when they were finished. Completed painting 4 rooms in a short period of time that more than met my expectations. I will hire then again and I highly recommend Apollo Paint and Stain Company. You will be very satisfied with price and result."

"Hiring Noel Painting was a great experience. First of all Richard their sales person and estimator was very professional and knowledgeable. He made it very easy to get approval from our HOA as he gave me a folder that had a copy of their license and insurance information and a little history about their company. The painters did a great job and very meticulous. I had two other bids, one was close to Noelâ  s estimate and the other was off the chart, $2,000 higher than the other two bids. I figured that company really didnâ  t want the job. I highly recommend Noel."

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.
