"Brannick Painting just finished a complete exterior repaint of our house in El Cerrito, including staining our deck. Patrick and his team were wonderful to work with. Patrick helped us with color selection, painting large sheets of posterboard with several colors we considered, so we could hold them up to the house in different lighting to see how they would look when finished. we have heard from others that they had small swatches painted on their house and Patrick’s approach is so much more helpful. Patrick is also extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of preparation and painting. We have an old stucco house that needed a lot of detailed preparation. His crew is very experienced, and they did an excellent job repairing and preparing all of the cracks and blemishes on our house. We are very happy with the final product. We highly recommend using Brannick Painting."

"painted underside of eves all around the house (the last time the house was painted the painters pressure washed, but did not scrape, the underside of the eves. After a 4 -5 years the old paint under the new peeled off leaving bare wood. We could not get an appraisal with bare wood showing. Kanell's Painting Service workers scraped the paint under all of the eves, and also did the same to nearby beams that were not on the original work requested, because the paint was blistering. They did an excellent job, and were careful, and cleaned up completely. We were very pleased with their work! They repaired/repainted a little more than the original request. the final result was excellent."

"Josh and his father, Mark have completed several paint jobs for us. They repainted the exterior of our home, painted kitchen and bathroom cabinets, all of our baseboards, and our new stair railings and risers. Their work is truly impeccable. They pay close attention to detail and spend probably a third of their work prepping the area to be painted. Caulking, patching and sanding, I have learned,this makes such a huge difference on the appearance and durability of your project. The exterior of our home was so beautiful that some of our neighbors have already hired them to repaint their homes. Our cabinets and stair railings are stunning. They painted the stair posts then noticed some imperfections in the wood, so worked to patch, sand and repaint so the the final product was flawless. They are quick to respond to inquiries and their prices are very competitive with other larger companies we got quotes from. It is so hard to find honest, reliable and talented contractors and I will always recommend them and continue to use their services for future painting projects."

Before pictures
(Before Pic)Home was pressure washed with a 3000 psi machine to remove as much dirt and grime from the exterior house wall surfaces before painting. We sanded all the bad areas and spot primed them before painting. Used caulking to seal any open grooves and open wood joints as needed.
(Before l) This photo shows the condition of the cabinet before it was refinished. You can see the stain is faded and clear coat is chipping away from water damage and moisture in the air.
Exterior Repaint
Prepped the door for painting. Sanded it then primed it. Removed the door handle and carefully covered the hinges before spray painting the door.

"Perfectionism has met its match in Peter Dewey and Bayview Painting. We had a very large exterior painting project which required significant planning and prep work, scaffolding etc as were also getting a new roof and gutters around the same time. Peter’s crew was meticulous in their prep and painting and clean up. Cruz was our lead on the project and a delight to work with. Peter was commonly on sight to check the progress and answer questions. His integrity and professionalism were second to none, as well as that of his crew. We had some damages occur in the process with the amount of scaffolding and repair work that needed to be done and Peter and his crew acknowledged the issue and are taking care of repairs. Their professionalism is beyond reproach. The finished product exceeded my expectations. In all my years of home ownership and repairs, Ive never had the degree of professionalism and quality of workmanship that I had with Peter Dewey and Bayview Painting."

FAQs for painting projects in Orinda, CA

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.
