"I highly recommend Jose's Painting L.A. I contracted with them to paint my 2.5 story craftsman home with a lot of detail and they did a beautiful job. I loved the fact that I received a fast itemized quote so I knew exactly what to expect. The workers were all professional and courteous. Also the work area was cleaned up everyday before they left. I would definitely use them again."

"The house exterior was power washed, the stucco was repaired, cracks in the wood filled, peeling paint was removed and the entire exterior of the house was painted including the patio cover. When the job was completed, the painters cleaned up and left paint for touch ups. My house looks terrific. From the outside, the house looks brand new. I am very satisfied with the painting, and I would recommend Rick Jamison Painting to anyone looking for a painter."

"I was so impressed with Star Painting and Decoration Inc. Alvaro and his crew exhibited punctuality, professionalism, workmanship to a degree I haven’t seen in a painting company before. He painted my house using Sherwin Williams Paint . He explained the different qualities of paint. We chose Emerald Exterior by Sherwin Williams. That paint is the best on the market!! Alvaro addressed every detail we discussed in our first walk of my home. My home came out great!! I will be referring Alvaro to any one who needs to paint the exterior of their house!! 200 Percent Satisfaction Guaranteed!!!!"

"John Villar, Northridge CertaPro owner, came out for an estimate, and discussed every detail of the paint job that would be completed. He was such an informative gentleman and very patient in answering our questions. The proposal he sent within a few days was precisely detailed with everything we discussed. The contract addressed every aspect of the service to be provided, and this made us confident in the job and the cost. The team of painters was friendly, neat, and explained the plans for each day. Their hard work was evident in the amount of prep work they did, the attention to detail, and their eagerness to please us. The paint job on our home’s exterior was the best we have had, We are thrilled with all aspects of the work, the genuine pride of workmanship in the painters, and the integrity of the owner. We highly recommend them."

"It went extremely well. Mr. White gave me a great price. He came by the next day after agreeing on price and start date and power washed the entire house. Looked for repairs that may be needed as well. Told me his crew would be here the following morning at 7:00am they were here about 6:45 am. They started working quickly and efficiently at sanding, filling stucco, checking for things that needed attention. Then began the actual painting around 11:00am. They prepped by covering my neighbors vehicles a fence as well to ensure that there wasn't any paint flying away anywhere. Paid very close attention to detail. They finished late afternoon and cleaned up behind themselves. Left me extra paint as well. There is a four year warranty on the job too! Mr. White helped me with the decision of exactly what paints I wanted and they blend very well. I chose a nice gray with black trim and went big and had my doors painted a fire engine red! Saw a few things I wanted touched up when he was by on Friday for payment and he sent someone out that very day to take care of. The house was painted on a Wednesday. I would have figured that a contractor would have been waiting at my door on Wednesday afternoon for payment. He gave me plenty of time to walk around look at and make comment. Was an extremely easy experience. The entire crew was courteous and worked very hard all day!"

"John gave me a fair and competitive bid. His crew works very well together. Each day they had a target on what they needed to accomplish and they achieved it. They did a great job preparing my house before painting which is key to the finish and lasting protection. I would highly recommend Any Painting for any painting needs."

"We hired Plancheck Painting to paint our living room and loft because our walls are very tall and we didnâ t want to risk working on a tall ladder. We are so happy with the final result! We had several companies give us quotes for the job but decided to go with Plancheck because they always communicated quickly and gave us an excellent price. They were not pushy and gave us plenty of time after the estimate to let us decide on the color, a process we agonized over for several weeks. As soon as we did decide Diego from Plancheck was true to his word and scheduled us right away. It was a big job but the crew showed up ready to work and prepped, did two coats and cleaned up in about 8.5 hours. We have always painted our interiors ourselves so it was a real treat to turn over our place in the morning to the team at Plancheck and return in the evening to a beautiful paint job. Money well spent and an experience we would recommend to anyone."

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.
